Best Replica Fish Mounts?

[trophyboy]

Who does the best replica fish mounts in Alberta or Saskatchewan? My son caught a 49" behemoth pike today and I'm thinking about getting it done. Also, what would the cost be. Thanks in advance.

Not sure about alberta or Saskatchewan but I had a 42" pike replicated at Advanced taxidermy in Ontario, If I remember right it was $1100 after shipping to edmonton.,Excellent work.

I think it was a 33" pike done for around $700 last summer in Medicine Hat. I'm not 100% on this as I can't really remember exactly.
Done a good job and he was very helpful. Kept sending me pics of the project as he went along.

SOMEONE either works for or is good friends with Booth :thinking-006:

Three posts, three plugs.


Not sure about his fish work, but his deer and marten work are not very impressive............

Wow thats a screamer buddy, right on for the little man! Hey id check out Joe Fittante or even try Lax Reproductions. Outa the US but thier stuff is about as solid as it gets man. Price might be right with the american economy too.

Mike here (http://www.prairiedrifter.com/taxidermy.htm) built me a custom glass rod.

Apparently he is good at taxidermy because 1) it is a full time job, and 2) he wins competitions.

I was wondering if you could disclose who you used in med hat to do a fish replica? I have a fish I want to get a replica done for and am looking for a good guy to do it.

Thanks

Luke Morin in Whitefox Saskatchewan does a ton of replica walleye and pike from Tobin Lake. He is also extremely reasonable. I got replicas of a 14.15 lb walleye and a 16.2 lb walleye. They were only $400 mounted on driftwood.
