Nature Boy Designs Featured Artist Rod Tube

This rod tube art by artist Eric Hornung of Anti Hero Electric Tattoo graces the first in a series of Nature Boy Designs “featured artist” rod tubes.

The tube is first painted white by NBD and then shipped out to the artist where they are free to apply thier individual art. The tube is then sent back to NBD for the finishing touches that best reflects that artists work.

Snazzy Bluegill

Andrea Larko has a great new limited edition Bluegill print up on her Etsy shop.

I just bought one for one of the hardest working guys in fish conservation Teeg Stouffer and his wife Amy, who welcomed their new son into the world just a couple of weeks ago. Teeg recently took slab of the month honors for a bluegill making this the perfect gift for the new nursery. 

Nichols Art Glass

Andy Nichols dabbled in different art media until he found his niche in glass blowing.

Each of his fish is uniquely designed with abstract colors and patterns, while holding true to common characteristics of native fish.
