A friend of mine did an Alaskan fishing trip about 20 years ago and caught a huge (70#?) King Salmon he had mounted.

When I asked who did it, he said that it was a taxidermist in Alaska whose real name was...Hunter Fisher.

I thought he was pulling my leg, but in doing a search I found out that he was not kidding.

This is the only thing I could find right now (maybe he died?), but imagine a taxidermist named 'Hunter Fisher'...how perfect is that?

Maybe the guy that threw a lot out on the table that I listened to early on was a taxidermist from Anchorage, a very famous taxidermist by the name of Hunter Fisher...that's his name. Hunter Fisher, and he still has a taxidermy shop there,
