Thomas Rauter: Archival Ink, Personal Memory

I’ve been fishing since I was two years old, and over the years, I’ve caught plenty of fish that I’ve wanted to remember long after the day on the water was over.

Photos are great, but I wanted a different way to capture those memories — something unique that could actually be displayed and appreciated for years to come. That’s where InkedCatch began.

I started turning my favourite catches into detailed black-pen drawings, creating affordable pieces of artwork that capture not just the fish, but the memory behind it.

Now, through InkedCatch, I create custom drawings from your own catches, giving you a unique way to keep the memory of a fish you’ll never forget.

Meticulous Technique

Black-Pen Precision, Archival Quality

Each custom ink illustration is drafted purely by hand using fine-line gel pens on textured paper. This dedication ensures anatomical accuracy and museum-quality permanence for your trophy catch.
