Fathers Day gift-Walleye Skin Wallet

[Chad]

If anyone is looking for the perfect gift for the angler that has everything I think I found it. Was at Scheels in Fargo and noticed they have some wallets made from tanned walleye skin. Pretty cool.

I think they had two colors black and brown.
Two different styles: $59 for wallet and $35 for business card holder.

They were in the fishing department at Scheels. 701-298-2918 is the number.

The wholesaler was on the radio yesterday and said they were working on a checkbook cover too but it is not ready yet.

Sounds just weird enough to be interesting. Do they have a photo? I couldn't find it on their website.

Where is the skin coming from?
I for one, don't want to encourage or reward walleye netting.

The products are manufactured by Big Eye Leather in Manitoba and distributed by Scottys Sports Sales in the US. We currently have Wallets, Business Card Holders, & Money Clips. Soon we will also have checkbooks, hats, slippers, belts, ect... There will be 15 colors available. We also have the tanned and colored skins available for craftsman or manufacturers. These items are beautiful, durable, unique and rare. They are available at a few select retailers or direct at scotty@scottyssportssales.com I will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

A guy just south of Winnipeg is making them.
I have one and so far it is holding up very well.
Lots os storage in the wallets for their size.

Does it look like actual walleye colors or is it just black or brown?
