African Tigerfish by King Sailfish Mounts

African Tigerfish by King Sailfish Mounts.

African Tigerfish. A rugged, toothy mount, the African Tigerfish is of one of Africa's most sought after prize catches. Found from West Africa to the Nile and southward to the Zaire, Zambezi and Limpopo systems. It occurs in Lake Turkana which was once connected to the Nile but has not been able to cross the Murchison Falls and reach Lake Victoria nor has it been able to colonize Lake Kivu from Lake Tanganyika. African Tigerfish are more vividly colored than the larger Goliath Tigerfish. For more info on African Tigerfish, refer to the International Game Fish Association World Record Gamefishes guide.

Artist Note: Many of the mounts shown here were painted according to a photograph provided by the angler. That explains the differences you will find in the colors of the different mounts.
