I saw a really nice print of a striper on the 6OG website last year and it kind of stuck with me. Since we got into the big fish with the kayaks at the islands on Texoma the last few weeks, I had it in my mind to keep one and try to make a print of my own from it. Well, I caught my PB striper last Saturday morning and decided it would be the one... I couldn't find the exact paper that is recommended for the process locally, but decided to try it anyway. This is a 33" fish. The table it's laying on is 4' long, to give you a perspective. I had too much ink on it, but I will still frame it and proudly display it in my office. I just can't spend the money on a mount or replica, so this is what I'll keep. The fish is still edible after making the print, by the way...
