Couple Mounts

Recommended Posts

Bryce- Who did the mount? I'm looking for quality crappie taxidermist. Yours look really good, it looks real. Alot better compare to some crappie mount I've seen but this one is one of the best in details and everything. I have two in the freezer, looking around for options to do the mount for me.

Copies the mount in the corner by the round table in Westwind. Work is done in Spicer and I know I can't post a commercial link without going on the healthy scratch list for 2 weeks. Will try and get around to photographing my birds and posting on site somewhere. Not that difficult to stuff game but it takes an artist to put the paint on.

Bryce,

I wonder if we use the same guy in Spicer. I have largemouth bass and bluegill by someone from Spicer and my father has a bunch of fish from the same guy. Based on your post, I would say it is the same guy. He does excellent work.

I have two on my wall as well from Red, one 14.5 and another 14, I will post a pic when I get a chance. The paint job on them is absolutely fantasic! In fact I had the same guy do a couple of gills for me as well that turned out just as fantastic.

Definately. I got those done at Danny Beck's Taxidermy in Isle. I've seen mounts that he has done of other species and they are all fantastic.

nice Drewski,I got a couple 14-15 in crappies I should have this guy do?

Since you're from Wyoming...You could also look into Tony Valentini, he does heck of a job. I have two crappies that he should be done with soon. I will post a pic when I pick them up. He finishes his work usually no more than 4-5 weeks. Here is a sample of his stringer crappie work he did.

    • Yeah it was a beatdown
    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
