Leroy part 2


Well, assembly is pretty much finished! Leroy is embedded and now all that lies ahead are weeks and weeks of detail work. And of course the whole how the heck are we going to get that slab upright. It's ok, I have a plan, sort of. If it doesn't work you will all know about it in a few weeks. The mount right now weighs in at about 1200 pounds. Jacob is pointing to the specimen for scale. It's hard to get it all in one shot, with the overall size of 16'x7'. We need to start finding smaller fish.

  2. Thanks for the comments, guys! It's been a 3 month ordeal, but we can now finally start to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Taking the next few days off it for some much needed rest, food and beverages!
