Bob Berry set the standard in fish carving in the 1970's and 1980's and his skill has continued to evolve. This revised edition of Fish Carving: An Introduction contains a new color section on painting trout, in addition to the full text and illustrations of the six original carving projects: rainbow trout, brown trout, brook trout, bluegill, largemouth bass with turtle, and lionfish with queen angelfish. Step-by-step carving instructions are presented in detailed black-and-white line drawings and photographs. Finished carvings are shown in full color. The new 16-page color section features 64 step-by-step photos with captions. Bob Berry began his career as a taxidermist, moved on to decoy carving, and eventually specialized in fish carving. He swept the World Championship Fish Carving contest in 1986, taking the top awards in three divisions, as well as Best of Show.
