Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

I have a feeling this year were going to get a fish worthy of mounting! I myself have never mounted a fish. There is plenty of folks on here that have and that also do taxidermy. How bout some advice on what to do from the catch on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

22" is just under 6 lb. That is a massive fish! My brother caught this fish just prior to me catching a 4 lb. wee baby. The fish were released and hopefully are making monster babies this Spring! I believe him on the 22" fish! I would be interested in getting a giant replica bluegill as some point.
