I recently caught a big fish on Toledo Bend and took its measurements and a bunch of pictures then released it. Does anybody have any recommendations on who to use for a replica?

If you are not sure of whom you want to use, I would advise you to look at a few different companies and ask them to provide you with pics of the actual fish and then review the replica to see how well it matches. Not every fish looks like a Lake Fork Fish (not intended to be directed at LFT).
I used Kevin at Fish Scale and he does AMAZING work! The replica was 100% dead on and the colors were exact to my Ivie fishnot an industry standard color scheme and pattern. In my research I looked at several companies and all of their fish replicas looked exactly the same..even though the fish were from different lakes. Falcon fish dont look like Fork fish. Ivie fish dont look like Lake Austin fish..
Im very pleased with the work Kevin did and if I ever better my PB.he will have my business again!
