For Fishermen
Built Around the Catch
A great fish is more than something you bring home. It is a memory, a place, a season, and usually a story that gets told more than once.
Hanes creates custom copper sculptures that capture those fish in remarkable detail, from familiar freshwater species to offshore game fish. Each piece is made by hand and built to reflect the fish, and the experience, that made it worth remembering.

Your Fish, Your Story
Bluewater Copper Works can create a sculpture from a photograph of your catch or work from the species and details you provide. The piece can be made to the actual size of the fish or scaled to suit the space where it will be displayed.
Whether it's a personal catch, a favorite species, or a fish that has special meaning to your family, the finished sculpture is made specifically for you.

A Keeper of Memories
These are pieces meant to stay with you long after the fishing trip is over. Hanes takes the time to get the shape, proportions, markings, and details right, then works the copper by hand to give the sculpture its character.
The result is a permanent reminder of something that would otherwise exist only in photographs and memories.

Hanes Hoffman has been creating gamefish copper art for more than two decades, including custom trophies and large-scale installations featuring some of the world's most sought-after species.
