Bluegill Mount

JDA1422 Joined: 12/31/2008 Location: ND	Who is the best taxidermist to mount a bluegill? I do not care about price; I am looking for quality and longevity of the mount. Any help would be great. I will go anywhere within 250 miles of Fargo.

holmsvc Joined: 04/14/2003 Location: ND	That's really suprising the panfish mounts look great. snow Said: holms, Careful,I had reefish do a 34" walleye I released,worse chop job I have ever seen,Maybe I'll post a pic? looks like a cross between a smallmouth bass and a salmon,the walleyes tail/fan was wider than anything they had so they used a salmon tail or some such thing. But I agree,find a shop in your area that does replica's and they'll last a life time,mounted fish tend to dry out over time and crack,sometimes the tail curls too.

SHORTHAIRSRUS Joined: 11/24/2004 Location: ND	Why go 250 miles when the best lives here - Bill Kitzman West Fargo With fish --- its all in the painting (my .02). As far as longevity --- i have some on the wall that have been around for eons. They didnt crack or dry -- technology 20 years ago was good and now even better. The ones that u see that are tough lookin are bar ridden, ancient or not done properly.
