I'm looking to do a Trout replica mount sometime this year. Does anyone know of any reputable places/people that do good work? I'd prefer to go local, but willing to work with anyone. I'm looking to shop around a bit and get a feel for pricing and quality of work.
Thanks

The best quality of work that I have seen is from a place in Canada,

Yeah I saw some of their stuff at a recent outdoors show. They do great work, but if I find someone I like here in Utah I'd prefer to go that route. I'm defiantly going to look into their rates though.

To check out Jerry's work, go to Sportman's an check the Laker mounts. You will not find a better artist. He's a pretty damn good fishman also !!
I think you may be able to find reasonable rates and great reproductions through Cabela's and Bass Pro Shops if you call around. By the way; I appreciate the great sportsmanship you are presenting by your preference of releasing and getting a replica.
