I'm not big into fish mounts but a replica of that would look amazing over a fireplace or in the office. Well I did have a replica made by King Sailfish mounts and just got it back, Sent them a couple of closeups of the fish. Looks great over the fireplace.

BilletHead Posted September 2, 2018 Posted September 2, 2018 Yep nice replica. Would be neat to have one of the fish we have caught across the West. Do they ask for a length and girth besides the photo?

They also have "off the shelf" blanks (from previous mounts) that they custom paint for less $$$. This is one of those. Fortunately it was a male cutthroat and close in size of the one I caught. As I said, I sent them some good pics to work from.

I think we are up to 10 in each of their respective ranges. Could you give a buddy a loan? I even looked up the native fish hats on rep your water. Won't be doing that either :), Again nice reproduction Net Boy, BilletHead "We have met the enemy and it is us", Pogo If you compete with your fellow anglers, you become their competitor, If you help them you become their friend" Lefty Kreh " Never display your knowledge, you only share it" Lefty Kreh "Eat more bass and there will be more room for walleye to grow!"

I need to get an idea about how many $$$$ those are. #askingforafriend Hey Ham, it was $287 plus shipping... The FedEx guy brought it in a 4'x4'x12" box and it took some time to unscrew the mount from it's frame. I was totally satisfied with their service. Got it 3 weeks after ordering. I had a skin mount done on a big rainbow many years ago and it took well over a year with lots of coaxing. I'll never kill another big one for a mount. This one looks better than the skin mount. Here is their website... you can search for most any species. Key is take good pics of your catch from different angles and then let him swim. http://www.kingsailfishmounts.com/freshwater-fish-mounts-trout-cutthroat-c-164_184.html BilletHead 1
