Carving a Wooden Brook Trout

No comments yet

It may not be fly-fishing, but most anglers will probably appreciate the skill going into this process - and not least the result.
MIKE STINNETT CARVES A WOODEN BROOK TROUT OUT OF A SINGLE PIECE OF WOOD
In this wood carving video I show how I carved this life sized Brookie out a piece of Box Elder wood and painted it using a combination of hand painting and airbrush. I also show you a little bit about my day to day life and the wildlife in my yard.

"I've had this piece of Box Elder wood curing out in the woodshed for a couple of years."
"It's just begging to be turned into a life-sized Brook Trout."
"The carving is pretty well roughed out, now."
"I've got some work to do in the office today."
"I need to get these logs peeled for future walking stick materia.l"
"It will take a couple of years before they will be ready to carve."
"I like having wild animals around. So I try to keep some bird seed in the feeders for them."
"It's hard to explain how much satisfaction I get from carving fish."
"I really enjoy every phase of the process." Especially the challenge of carving the fins and all, from a single piece of wood."

The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
