albertatrout Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Have acquired a 7 foot sail fish and do not know what type of bracket to use to hang it on a wall. Any feedback is appreciated. It depends on the weight of the mount, are there any hooks/ eyelets on the back of it? Is it on a piece of wood or anything? Generally, as long as you have screws into the joists of your walls it will hang just fine. I have a heavy bighorn sheep mount and it has been hanging for years off one solid screw, i have a few other large mounts in the basement and at most i have used 2 screws into something solid with great success. Brackets similar to these would work, one on each side of the fish maybe. http://www.amazon.ca/PICTURE-HANGING-DOUBLE-NICKEL-PLATED/dp/B0087DSR7U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1427644813&sr=8-1&keywords=picture+hanging+bracket . An idea may be to get something like that but significantly larger too, there's really not just one way of getting things to hang nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
