Hey Jeff,
Do you ever remember that place just south of Rocksprings with all the fish heads on the fence?
Lots of yellow cat fishermen hung their big flatheads on fences. Kinda like some deer hunters do with big bucks on the wall or big racks.
Many years ago a lot of guys would hang a big bass head to dry with a stick propping its mouth open. On really big ones some would spray it with clear laquer after it dried to help preserve it and hang it on a wall or in the garage.
I guess it was a nice reminder of a good successful day. Not too PC now days it seems.
When I was a kid a place near Groveton always seemed to have a few big red wolves hanging on the fence. Man did i ever dream about getting one of them. Years later I did.
