View Full Version : Fish Mounts?????
I am wondering if anyone can tell me a rough cost to get a replica done of a 30lb chinook? no background habitat stuff. just something I can hang on my wall?
Also can anyone recomend a taxidermist to get this done?
cheers.

I am not sure about cost but Ganders taxidermy in beautiful Surrey B.C are probably the best around and have a quick turnover time.

Im in the Wack and would also be curious what a steelhead mount would cost
$20/inch for a reproduction. from most shops i guess.......

IMO, I'd go with a real skin mount (personal flavour).... I know that Ray Weins (Mainland Hunter) doesn't do them (on my last check) but you should call him for a recommendation.

a freind of mine had his kids first spring done a couple yrs ago. 46 lb. vedder river spring, and I'm pretty sure he said it was around $250

I got a replica done of a 52 lb spring. Got it done by advanced taxidermy. They are world renowned. Awesome work check out there website. I paid 900 delivered to my door from Ontario. I don't like the Skin mounts. I've seen lots. They shrink Alot. And they never last as long. And truth be told they are about 50% replica anyways. I hope this helps.

I got mine (106" Marlin) from :

Awesome and well priced.
talk to Ganders. The lodge where I worked got all mounts done through them. 5 years ago the cost was around 600 I think. They look real good. All you need is the measurements of the fish. Fiberglass mounts are way better than the real thing in my opinion.
You can call Scot Barley at - Barley's Emerald Sea Taxidermy - #250-391-9448
FOR MY 46" SPRING I WAS TOLD ITS 900.00 from ganders.
