Location: Michigan		Don't get me started on why, but my muskie, pike, and walleye reproductions are in the garage. This will be the first winter they may have to stay in the cold... Living in Michigan, i am worried about expansion/contraction and cracking of the body/paint. Last winter 30+ days below zero...

Do any of you have experience with repros going through several seasons in the garage or unheated cabin/lake house?

Any troubles at all?

Thanks

25+ years at the Angle in an unheated house over the fall, winter and spring with no problems. They all look new. The repos were done by four different taxidermists all are holdingup well.
