OUTDOORNUT Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I was pretty happy with my replica but when I got it, it looked like a 200# Blue Marlin!!! , Stinky Walleyes, you going to hang that bottom feeder over your crapper? That way you can see which one looks better!! Don't be afraid to ask the taxidermist to put a few chunks of corn or peanuts on your Eye also!

HARPOON-OR-BUST Posted January 10, 2006 Author Share Posted January 10, 2006 WHEN I GET IT DONE I'LL BE SURE TO SHOW YOU IT SO YOU KNOW WHAT ONE LOOKS LIKE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PierBridge Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Your going to want to research this one, I have seen 9 bad one's for every good one, it boils down to how good the paint job is.Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamakatsu Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 I would say and seen his work on replicas that TED PILGRIM in park rapids does an excellent job on reps or the real thing. I picked up my deer mount late this summer and there was a walleye on his table and i thought it was the real macoy but it was a replica. If you want it done right i would suggest him.

Willy Walleye Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Any idea how much a 37 inch pike would cost?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Christianson Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 A 37 inch pike?Well, depends if you want it on driftwood, a plaque, do you want it shipped or would you pick it up, etc....Fire me an email and we can talk about all the options if you are serious.[email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HARPOON-OR-BUST Posted January 17, 2006 Author Share Posted January 17, 2006 BLB, THANKS FOR THE PICTURES I APRECIATE IT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stratosman Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 When I had my pike done a few years back it was $10.00 per inch, went through a local taxidermist who I believe went through fibertech. I couldn't be happier with the way it turned out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LEECH21 Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 radke22-the coldwater mounts a very impressive(the trout). The warmwater fish (pike, walleye, bass, etc.) look a little "fake" in my opinion.Cool stuff to look at though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iffwalleyes Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 I believe Fibertech has it posted on the order page of the HSOforum they charge $12.50 an inch. Expected delivery time of 5-6 weeks Look them up at http://www.fibertechproductions.com/ I have a walleye I am think about getting done but that is they great thing about a replica. I don't have to do it right now if I want to wait and do it 3 years from now I still can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8-Ball Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 I would second those that suggested Mike @ Fibertech... He did a 'ski for me and a sunnie for my oldest daughter. Both look awesome. Had them both done in under a month. $12.00/inch last year. Not sure what he charges now.. If I can figure out how to post pics here, I will do so in next few days or so. 8-Ball.

Northlander Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Watch your mouth Outdoornut! You know walleyes are #1. You actually hold your rod in your hand most of the time while fishing them unlike your trolling on the big lake. Artistic Anglers in Duluth is excellent! Best replicas I have ever seen. Our very own Outdoorran works there and does great work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEECH21 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 I've seen some of Artistic Anglers work as well...VERY, VERY NICE!!! Maybe outdoor ran could post a few pics. That would be cool to see some comparisons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 I'd love to see a walleye mount from artistic anglers too if anyone has a pic of one. I've heard tons of good about them, but don't think I've ever seen one from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJ Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 This is a 32" 14 lb. walleye with a 21" girth. This is the only mold Artistic Anglers has in a 32" walleye. He has many molds of 28-30" walleyes. My son and I think his replica looks great. Hope this helps. My son paid $10 an inch if ordered at the Mpls sports show. It took 9 months to get it back, since he had a lot of orders at the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outdoor ran Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Artistic Anglers is always adding new molds to its inventory. There is some really nice walleye molds in the 30"-34" range. Heres a few pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
