Plymouth, WI – April 14th, 2010
Me and My Catch has developed the next generation of fish mounting – without the fish! Our new Half Mounts on Canvas are a 3D fish mount derived from the photo of the angler with his catch.
These mounts include a full-sized replica of the fish that extends outward from the canvas-wrapped framed photo.
These unique replicas mean that anglers can have a permanent mount made of their trophy catches while still releasing the fish. No fish is needed for taxidermy. All that is required is a quality photo and the replica can be created even years after the catch.
All of these features made Me and My Catch an obvious partner with the exclusive AIM Catch-Record-Release™ format. “CRR™” is the centerpiece of every AIM Pro Walleye Series™ tournament. This format allows the AIM Pro Anglers to “weigh” their seven largest fish each day regardless of local bag limits or slot size restrictions. All walleyes are photographed and immediately released to be caught again. No fish are killed and no “dead fish” penalties are imposed. The Pro Angler that catches the biggest fish always wins – a simple, but previously elusive objective.
Kim Morrison of Me and My Catch commented, “Me and My Catch is your one source for photo quality fish reproductions and much more. Our goal is to develop and manufacture high quality products that capture the spirit and enthusiasm of you the fisherman. Likewise, the AIM Pro Walleye Series™ Catch-Record-Release™ format uses digital technology to enhance the tournament experience for the anglers without any negative impact on local fisheries. We are proud to partner with AIM and award certificates for replica mounts to the Big Fish winners at each of the AIM tournaments.”
Scott Matheson, AIM President and CEO added, “The AIM Catch-Record-Release™ format has done more to change the landscape of tournament fishing than any other innovation. Our Pro Anglers engage in pure competition and harvest literally zero fish. Not only does “CRR” have the enthusiastic endorsement of these Pro Anglers, but it has also been universally praised by our local host communities and fishery agencies. Now, through this partnership with Me and My Catch, AIM is able to provide a tangible reward to the Pro Angler that catches the largest walleye at each of our events!”
