Every mount is custom made to order. Please allow 4-6 weeks for delivery.

The Dog Snapper of the Atlantic is a less common member of the snapper family, occurirng throughout the Florida Keys and the Bahamas, found most often in and around coral reefs. Dog snappers can be distinguished from other snappers by the triangular silver marking just below the eye, extending to the upper jaw. The dog snapper is often released, as it has been known to cause Ciguatera poisoning after ingesting and accumulating the toxins from other reef-dwelling fish. The I.G.F.A. All-Tackle World Record is 24-pounds, and was taken from the Hole-in-the Wall, Bahamas in 1994. For more information on the dog snapper, log onto the International Game Fish Association website.

Dog Snapper Mounts are available online from King Sailfish Mounts. King Sailfish individually crafts finely detailed mounted fish by hand, one-at-a-time.
