Created with soft natural "S" curves, and sculpted with precise anatomy, World Champion fish taxidermist Jeff Lumsden's new incredible line of Still Life rainbow trout manikins are now available! Your trout skins will fit these forms like nothing else you've ever used, and will look incredibly lifelike when you're finished! Jeff has an enormous collection of reference data from thousands of specimens to insure that this new line is more accurate, user friendly and very affordable! This is clearly the finest rainbow trout mannikin line ever offered to the taxidermy industry. The superb anatomy provides details you could never accomplish by carving a body from a block of foam. Your rainbow mounts will be better than ever while you save a tremendous amount of time in the mounting process! Jeff has made a career out of his outstanding trout mounts, which have won Best of Category at state, regional, national, and World competitions -- and now you can take advantage of his talent. These mannikins can be used with either natural or artificial heads. They are available for fish weighing 3 to 6 pounds. There will be more sizes added in the near future!

There are only two easy measurements you'll need:

(A) For the length, start at the cleithrum (just under the opercle) and measure down to where the scales stop at the beginning of the caudal fin.

(B) Then measure for the girth of your fish, at the front of the dorsal fin and around the belly.
