An artificial animal eye for use in taxidermy and including a nictitating membrane integrally formed thereon is provided. The artificial animal eye is formed on a transparent eyepiece blank, such as a clear glass eyepiece, having a concave inner surface and a convex outer surface. Animal eye coloration is applied to the concave inner surface of the eyepiece. The integrally formed nictitating membrane is formed as a dark coloration applied along a portion of the circumferential edge of the convex outer surface of the eyepiece. The nictitating membrane coloration may be formed using a leaded glass enamel glaze mixture which is applied to the outer surface of the eyepiece in the shape of the nictitating membrane. Firing the eyepiece causes the glaze to fuse with the eyepiece glass, integrally forming the nictitating membrane on the eyepiece. For artificial deer eyes, the nictitating membrane is crescent shaped, having a wide central portion aligned with the long (horizontal) axis of an elongated eyepiece pupil, with the ends of the nictitating membrane crescent shape terminating at points on the circumferential edge of the eyepiece on opposite sides of the pupil and aligned with the short (vertical) axis of the eyepiece pupil.

A cured animal foot for mounting to a plaque includes an animal foot comprised of skin, bone, and flesh, having a lower portion with digits and an upper portion which at an upper end thereof has been cut from a leg of an animal, the upper and lower portions being joined at about a 90.degree. angle at the wrist joint. The cured animal foot further includes a semi-stiff wire inserted longitudinally into the animal foot and extending into both the upper and lower portions of the animal foot. While the animal foot is still fresh, it is bent at the wrist to the desired angle and held thereat by the bent wire while the foot is cured in the bent configuration in a curing bath. The invention is carried out by providing a fresh animal foot and a semi-stiff wire, inserting the semi-stiff wire longitudinally into the foot so that the wire extends into both the upper and lower portions of the foot. The foot is then bent at the wrist to the selected angle. The semi-stiff wire maintians this selected angle between the lower and upper portions of the foot. The animal foot should then be placed into a curing bath for a sufficient period of time for the flesh and skin of the foot to cure, and thereby to help maintain the upper and lower portions of the foot at the selected angle to one another. The cured animal foot should then be removed form the bath to be dried and then mounted to a plaque.

Disclosed is a method of making a taxidermy fish body insert piece. An outline of the fish body is traced on paper, and the outline is reduced marginally a measured amount. A bendable centerboard is made from the reduced outline. Arcuate contour wires are formed on the fish body of actual half-girths at various positions. The wires are traced on a card, and the tracings are reduced the same measured amount. The card is cut on the reduced tracings to produce a contour gauge card having contour cavities into an edge thereof. A fish body insert piece is built up of excelsior wrapped with string, building a half-body upon each side of the centerboard, using the contour gauge card to control the size and shape thereof.

A protective and release coating is applied to the front portion of an artificial eyepiece before it is placed in a mold to form a taxidermy animal head mannikin. The protective and release coating is preferably a latex material that protects the front surface of the glass or plastic artificial eyepiece from scratching or other damage while being placed in a mannikin mold. The mannikin mold defines a cavity surface contoured for correct anatomical features of the animal head mannikin, including the features immediately surrounding the eye. Eye socket recesses in the cavity surface are shaped to snugly receive the front portions of the eyepieces. Indicia ridges or locator sockets may be located around or in the eye socket recesses, to facilitate the proper orientation of artificial eyepieces within the eye sockets. The latex protective and release coating is preferably applied by spraying onto the front portion of the artificial eyepiece and allowed to set to form a cross-linked polymer coating before the eyepiece is positioned in the mold cavity eye socket. An adhesive may also be used to help hold the coated eyepiece in the mold eye socket. A liquid foamable and hardenable material is injected into the mold cavity, where it is allowed to expand and harden, thereby forming the taxidermy mannikin and fixing the eyepiece into the mannikin in proper position therein. The mold is then separated from the formed mannikin, and the protective and release coating is removed by peeling the coating from the front portion of the artificial eyepiece.

An ice fishing rig has a rigid elongated central housing to span a hole in the ice and lateral side edges to which fold-up panels are attached. The panels, which are preferably flexible, can be folded from a position in which they extend laterally outwardly from the central housing to a position where they are folded up underneath the central housing to form a compact unit for transportation and storage. When the rig is to be used, the side panels are folded out to their laterally extending position, and a spool assembly is rotated from a position in which it is aligned with and covered by the central housing to a position in which is perpendicular to the central housing. The rigid central housing spans the hole in the ice to support the rig while the laterally extending panels cover the hole to help inhibit freezing of the hole and to block sunlight from entering the hole. In addition, the central housing and side panels may be formed of a dark material to absorb heat from sunlight and further inhibit freezing of the water in the hole.
