All the fish mounts at Bass Pro are done by a company in Ontario called Advanced Taxidermy. The mounts are replica's so no fish meat goes to waste!!

Send them the length, girth and a few photo's of your fish and you can get a fish mounted that you previously released, or consumed.

www.advancedtaxidermy.com

Check them out. 6 month turn around sucks, but then again, replica's don't age the way a skin mount does. It will look consistantly awesome for years to come!

Take a look at some of their work on their site, or get an even better look at the brookies, and Lake White fish in the exit doorway at BPS. You will be hard pressed to find a more lifelike mount anywhere.

Hope this helps you in your search!
