The mount that is hanging from the hook in Red Top is also Wally's too. He told me it was one of his first attempt's and he didn't like it. He said that if you caught a world record he would mount it for nutin. He always looked to see what the fish was eating after he made the castings before he threw it in the Fal. dump. He knew the first big fish of the year he would get to mount always seem to come from around Cuttyhunk and it would always have scup in its belly. Told me the big bass came up with the scup. He used to have the state record large mouth hanging in his kitchen. I think he said he made 4 cast of the fish before it fell apart. He was a very interesting gentleman. P.
