Sheefish are really just big whitefish, but they do grow big and more importantly they’re sufficiently rare and isolated that even many of my most globetrotting angling friends have yet to catch one. That might merit a replica. There aren’t that many out there.

Many of my fellow traveling anglers start off being serious bass fishermen, then taste peacock bass in Brazil, and subsequently head even further south to places like Argentina or Uruguay to chase Golden Dorado. We’ll get there, and if manage to catch a trophy, I might just have to get a replica.
