    pecan "fish mouth" n.e. sumpin

    More play time with the green pecan....A couple of attempts at 'coke bottles' and a n.e. bowl, cup or whatever. The inside is unfinished, outside is blo and buffed. My first impression was of a fishmouth. Thanks for looking.....doug....My first try at natural edge.

    Good stuff Doug. I've seen pictures of NE bowls similar to this one called 'bird's mouth' bowls - imagine a bunch of baby birds in a nest waiting for mom to feed them.

    Looks just like a large mouth Bass hitting a top water bait to me.

    I like the bird's mouth and the coke bottles are a nice touch as well.

    Doug, I really like the bird's mouth---it does look like a fish mouth in that first pic! The coke bottles are quite nice, also. Looks like you're having fun with that pecan!
