Location: Lincoln UK | Rob, as everyone else has said, very nice work.
There would certainly be a market out there but ever considered carving just a head section? I think there would be a market using the head sections as presentation trophies, hell I'd have one for my pike anglers group (have to be pike color though).

Location: Chicago | I has some time this weekend to draw it up. I wanted to do something a little different with this one, tail down with a closed mouth. This one tapes out at 67". I'm going to paint it into a Minnesota heavy weight. I had to glue an extra piece of wood at the bottom to get the shape for this one. I'll probably be working on it off and on for the next 2 months.

| This is a rare piece of musky art work. I’d bet there are not any other examples of a carved wooden musky of this size and detail. The paint ‘mistake’ is what makes this one special. I think it looks better than most replicas (from an art perspective). I’ve carved many 2D muskies and I am sure that a ton of time and effort went into this one. You should not sell it since it is your first one. However, if you were to sell it… $3000 - $5000 is a reasonable price range. |

Personally; I would love to have one of those for the house. What a great alternative to a graphite replica...
Keep following that talent man and let us know where/when we can place orders. |

| 58"??? I could believe 52, but there is no way that thing is 58. And don't get me started on not releasing it. 
Seriously though, EXCELLENT work. A truly impressive piece of art. |
