Default Rising Trout
Just completed this piece from Bristol Cone Pine.
I used an oil finish Watco, natural finish, with a Marble base.

You can see the waves as the trout is coming out as if he might just land on you! Such a really neat carving Sir! Great work~

Thank you all!!!!!!!!!
It was a fun carving to do, as I don't do many fish.
I really enjoy working with Bristol Cone Pine, its always a challenge to fit the subject with the wood.
