Angler's Art Taxidermy

PRICES......Taxidermists routinely divide fish into categories for pricing purposes. Warmwater fish are those like bass and walleye. Trout and salmon are coldwater fish. They, along with saltwater species require extra degreasing steps. Large trout and salmon are provided with artificial heads. They look better, won't shrink or bleed oil . Some saltwater fish can be skin mounted. These include small, scaled reef fishes like triggers, snapper, and grouper.

RUSH SERVICE.....A large volume of internet business has necessitated a change in turnaround time. Calls about "How is the fish coming" just slow me down. Generally, the fish is quite dried and dead, waiting to be painted in line with others received. Expect a 3 to 4 month turnaround. Yes, it could be somewhat longer, or it may be shorter at times. If you have ants in your pants, I will bump your fish up in the holding pattern for an additional 20%.

SEND YOUR FISH FROM ANYWHERE!
Believe it or not, I can do skin mounts no matter where you live in the U.S. Frozen fish can be boxed and sent inexpensively by UPS, second day air, if sent on Mondays or Tuesdays. Contact us for details. This really works! Don't send your trophy to Billy Bob's or Bubba Joe's just because they are nearby. Have your mounts done by an expert and done right!

CARVINGS.....We will do custom fish carvings of most gamefish. These vary in price depending on size and complexity. A typical, 14 inch trout or bass carving will run about $250-$300. Price includes artistic base with or without vegetation and bottom structure. The finest gift for any angler!

PAINTINGS....Original watercolor or acrylics based on your ideas can be commissioned for as little as $200. Show us a photo of something near what you like, or just a rough sketch. Satisfaction guaranteed.

NOVELTIES....Ever seen a Jackalope? Well, we do Bassalopes, Rhino bass, Plesiosuars, and large dinosaur wall mounts. Have a Triceratops on your wall for about $125. Got any stranger ideas, like fish with eyes that light up at night or make disturbing noises? Just ask! We'll try to make it.
