Since I have been laid up from foot surgery the past 2 weeks. I decided to carve some fish for a friend. He tournament fishes for Lake Trout on the Great Lakes here in Michigan... So I made him some fish to hang from the rear view mirror of his truck. Made with, 1 split ring 6 inch chain used for holding keys 5 Barrel swivels clips #2 and 3 Bass Wood, Lake Trout 5" down to 4" long. (Just hope the DNR does not catch him with under size fish) |

Great gift for a fisherman. He always will have fish to show off. Come to think of it maybe I should make some of those for myself.

Nice work, great idea. After living in Whitehall the first 27 years of my life, I can appreciate fishing. I watch Michigan Out of Doors every week on the net and wish I could be on Lake Michigan fishing again. Thanks for the memories. Tim (If you really like to fish don't come to Oregon. If you like to dream about fishing, this is the place.)
