Presented in this lot are two (2) fish mounts: a King Mackerel and a Channel Catfish. King Mackerel, also known as Kingfish, are among the most sought-after game fish throughout their range from Maine to Brazil including the Gulf of Mexico.

The pectoral fin of the King Mackerel has been repaired., no marring noted to the Channel Catfish. King Mackerel measures 9"W x 31.5"L x 6"H. The Channel Catfish is 13.5"W x 35"L x 7.5"D
