Lake Fork Taxidermy is really good but there is a lady name Debbie Byrd at Smart Buck Taxidermy near Greenville/Cambell that did two for me and they are second to none.She does great table mounts and the detail is outstanding.

The largemouth bass replicas I've had done by LFT and Ron Kelly are second to none. After all, they've been on the banks of Lake Fork where collection of fish for molds has been ongoing since the 80's.

A little history for you guys. Ron Kelly was (the) one of the pioneers in fish replicas and started here on Lake Fork. His painting skills are unmatched. He hired a young guy named Jason Pierce and eventually Jason's brother Clayton. He taught them the trade. Things changed and Jason and Clayton went out on there own and Rom moved his shop to Emory. Ron and his wife Bev split and he moved to Rockwall. Bev opened a shop at his old location.

All of them do good work, I know them all personally and don't have anything negative to say about any of them.
But as with any trade, ask a lot of questions, get feedback from other customers and look at their work.

Those on your website are some of the best largemouth replicas I have ever seen.

I've used The Pierce Bros and Ron Kelly. All three are very good. Would use any of them again.

Ron Kelly did this live mount for me in 1993 that weighed 14.19 ( it died in the Lunker Lodge aquarium ) and still looks new. Not familiar with replicas but chances are he used this one to make molds with. He would be my choice.

I have always loved how heated these replica debates get. I had a similar story with LFT as some others have stated. VERY nice people, GREAT service but to me the fish just didn't look like what I had caught. Then I had my first DD done by a guy out of Waco that is now out of business because apparently he was horrible at communications with some others. The replica he produced is in a completely different class despite what I got from LFT being a good quality product from some good people. This has tons of details in the scales, all fins and just looks like a real bass pulled out of the lake to me and these pics don't do it justice. Fishmounter's work is the closest I've seen to this work so far.

Great looking fish Chris!

Kevin from Waco did mine too. I had just the opposite experience of what others had with him. He had my fish to me in 60 days from the day I called him. Looks just like yours. Excellent detail and very realistic.

I have had 3 Sharelunker replicas done. 2 were done by Ron Kelly, and the other was done by Lake Fork Taxidermy. I had the 3rd one redone by Ron Kelley.

I'd use this guy...

Me too. It's why I came to his defense on a post a couple of years ago. He was great at letting me know where things stood but I also left him alone to work his magic. I got mine in like 3 months when I told him it was ok if it took 5+. He's now back to air brushing custom motor cycles was the last I heard.
