Taxidermy gone Bad

May 15, 2007

Bad Mount.jpg

Perhaps I was dropped on my head as a baby or maybe it was the intake of all those illicit substances in the college years, but I just have a huge affinity for really bad taxidermy. What can I say…I’m a big fan! The uglier the fish mount, the more I like it.

And let me tell you bother, there’s no shortage of truly God-awful fish mounts out there. Drop by your local tavern or tackle shop and you’ll see what I mean. The more rotten skin and broken fins, the better!

That’s not to say, however, that I want any of these things hanging in my house. Nope, I prefer to enjoy a bad mount in its own environment, maybe take a picture or two. From time to time, I share some of my favorites here in a new category that I’m calling:

Okay, so here’s the first installment…I ran across this lovely largemouth in a tackle shop recently. She’s a beaut, eh?

By the way, don’t hesitate to pass along some photos of bad fish mounts if you have ‘em…we’ll be happy to post them here.
