Replica mounts

     Can anyone suggest a good place to get a replica done. I've always gotten skin mounts done in the past but this guy was released.  I'm considering getting one done. Thanks, much appreciated. Jeb
better pic than the 1st one. lol

    Paul Czarnecki at tri-state taxidermy.  intersection of Lake Pleasant Rd. and Barton Rd. (Majeriks Corners).

    I have two done by him, very happy with both fish. I have yet to see a local guy be able to paint a musky as true to life like Joe does.  
     
    Expect to wait a year and the mount will run probably around $900 when the dust settles

    Nice fish jeb! It's great that a guy would put a trophy fish back. If I ever caught a fish  that I felt was a once in a lifetime for me, I would get it mounted! I wouldn't want to look up at the wall at a plastic thing, that looked like a fish I caught!

    I had a fathead made of a couple pictures of huge crappies that i caught. Dont mind looking up on my wall and seeing them to remind me of a great day on the water.

    A Fathead, nice.....
    S.Shot: I have skin mounted some fish in the past, but with a big musky like that I think CPR (catch,photo & release) is the way to go unless it's health is in question. Takes a long time for a fish to get that size. Thanks for the compliment, it's my biggest to date. I don't really traget them much thou but we did on that trip.

    If you can't find a good taxidermist, I could do a full size oil on canvass for you. It would save you a buck or two as well.
