Well I took one of the sheepshead from the 2 1/2 day trip and made a little skeleton.

That is interesting. How did you clean it up?

619-SWIM-DOG · 07-02-2015, 08:17 PM

I boiled it then pulled off any leftover bits of meet and flesh then set it out to dry. It was in three pieces, so glued the top two together then the bottom.

Pretty cool! Would love to do this if I can ever land a decent sized sheepshead.

Very cool

I used to collect these as a kid when my Uncle came back from his Baja trips. The teeth were giants. I think I used varnish or some kind of clear resin to preserve the look of the teeth.

Nice! My cousins do that with deer skulls and use hydrogen peroxide to whiten it.

Jaws are cool! Guess this one!

Thanks for the picture.

I have one too in my cooler. I planned to burry it in the ground, but maybe I use your method.

If you want them white I like to soak them in hydrogen peroxide overnight
