Although I had cut one nice walleye, I still wanted one that would look good in an 8 X 10 frame. So, I decided to make my own pattern. It only has about 115 holes but still took almost as long as Dearing's bass. I guess this proves that holes aren't everything.

This one definitely got a little hairy in a few areas but the finished product is twice as satisfying, considering I designed the pattern. Although, I'd still rather have someone provide them.

Excellent Mike! I'd say you captured this fellow perfectly!
Sincerly a great pattern.
