Taxidermist needed
 
Caught a fluke of a lifetime yesterday that took the money in a tournament and went over 10 lbs. I always said if I got one over 10 I would mount it. Can anyone recommend taxidermist that specialize in saltwater fish? I am looking for quality and don't mind spending the money on a mount that I am going to see for the rest of my life. Thanks guys!

Be sure you ask to see some examples of the taxidermist's work. I've seen striped bass and fluke mounts that I'd be reluctant to put on my wall.

Congrats on a great fish! I agree with seeing examples of work.. unlike other animals, to do good fish requires real artistry with a paint brush.. my buddy has some beautiful Striper mounts done by a NJ guy named Kennedy.. some of the best skin mounts I've seen..
I googled him for u..

Saw a fluke Gary Collins did online, WOW. Tried calling but no answer, and no voice mail setup. Has anyone used him lately, or know if he still in the business? gonna try calling again tomorrow.
