Slugfish, I'm not trying to criticize your methods. Certainly many thousands of fish have been mounted over the years using the real head. I do disagree that the details cannot be captured in molds. Repro heads are not taking the easy way out. They are the better way. If you are happy with the results you've had using the real head then by all means continue to use that method.

Anyone reading this doesn't have to take my word for it. Simply go to the website www.taxidermy.net

Click on "forums" then go to the "fish" category. Here you will find some of the biggest names in the business. Post this question to them and see what they tell you.
