www.rmi-online..... Watch Bill Leach take you from skinning, preparing skin, to mounting it on a Rainbow Trout mannikin. Brought to you by Research Mannikins.
I use alcohol and borax mix once the meat is all gone. And I let it marinate for 2 to 3 days. And to make it smell good hit it with some Old Spice😂 just kidding it wouldn't hurt anything though and I don't use fake heads. You take the meat out of the head as well as the cheeks the eyes the head cavity you got to use tools to get all that stuff out scraping out real good takes time that goes in the same solution. The head is still attached to the skin because you're working on one side if you want to do it old school and do it right I think a skin Mount should be the whole head the whole body even the fins should be original. You have to have patience and take your time. Only thing I order is the eyes can I make my own bodies out of foam. There's a lot of taxidermist today that just by the bodies and paint them.😂😂😂😂 just like Body and Fender man a lot of these guys called herself Body and Fender man and all they do is just replace the fender Hood adjust it and they call themselves body men. Very laughable😂😂😂😂😂 what is the pins what a person wants to pay if you want a mannequin fish or a real skid mount.
This works if ur making ur own form when u buy a manikin they only give u 3 measurements
what do you use so the fish wont smell
