Fish shaped Cabin sign

[Rick P]

I am looking to make a fish shaped cabin sign. I would carve a last name and the address numbers on the sign.
It needs to be about 11 inches long. Anyone done this before and willing to share the pattern OR know where
I can get a nice pattern ? ? Thank you !

Here's a walleye sign: https://forum.carvewright.com/showth...hlight=walleye. You need a v bit for this.

Is there a fish type you are shooting for more than others?

DickB...If I use the 90 degree V-bit like the project calls for, will the curved body lines actually be feathered to a point just the way it looks?

The sign is for my pastor...he is a bass fisherman mostly...but, he has said the walleye looking sign is fine.

Yes, what you see is what you get with the 90-degree bit.

Ironically, while I lived in Minnesota (state fish: walleye) I never sold one of these. After moving to Florida, I must have sold a dozen of these all over the US. Bass is about all anyone fishes down here.
