Hello Rodeoj,
If you are still looking for someone interested in skins and barbs, I'd be interested.
Interested in Stingray skins and barbs and Shark skins.
With out some kind of preservative I'm not sure if you could get most saltwater species skinned and dried while maintaining their color.
I would LOVE to figure a way to get a Dolphin (Mahi) skin on a bow with even Some of the color they have in the water.
What would you be looking for in trade?
