Just joined this cool site!  Added a bunch of pictures of this fish to my albums.  Everyone feel free to check it out, and follow my page on Facebook, Lawrence Taxidermy Studio.  Thanks for looking, and the comments!

Jeff you have some awesome mount that would make any man or woman proud.

I agree, Jeff! The guys who get them are often catching them as a by-catch while targeting other species. These mounts are spectacular!

Sadly no stats…  The fisherman who caught it while bass fishing probably just thought..  "man, that's a pretty big Bluegill, should I eat it or maybe get it mounted?".. not realizing just what a true trophy of a fish he had just caught.  Just how many hours do you think all the members of BigBluegill.com have put in to catch a fish like this?  Even a smaller one of 12 inches!?

Indeed it is!

Jeff...nearly 15 inches puts this fish in the possible 4 lb category...any stats on this incredible catch?
