Eric that skin was only 12" long. I split it on the lateral line and wrapped sinew at the seam to blend it some.

Man that's a sweet looking bow. Those scales just bounce off that bow.

That is awesome, I never heard of using carp skin. It really looks nice. How do you prepare the skin before backing?
