For my DD?

I've seen a few of lake forks work and have been really impressed. Havent seen and of fun scales work but I've heard they are good as well.

Congrats. Great fish. Lake Fork is great. They've done 3for my brother and me. All were fantastic. Tell them exactly what you want. You wil not be disappointed.

Where did you catch the fish and what is that between your left pinky and ring finger?

Fish scale did one for me of my dad's pb. It looks outstanding, was very reasonable, and done in a couple weeks, but Dad's fish was was a good bit different than the replica they created. The elite form was a florida strain, my dad's fish was a northern strain, bigger head, and leaner. It does look amazing. The fins and gills are very realistic.

Id definately use them again.

I have no clue what that is between my fingers.
I was still shaking pretty good at that point.

It looks like the fishes bottom fin to me.

I have a Fish Scales and really like it. They did give a TFF discount. I got the Elite model. It fell off the wall. They replaced it free. Tell me where that would happen?

You got anal fin inbetween them.

Just got one back from Lake Fork Taxidermy:

Great looking fish Ranger.

Talked to LF Taxidermy this morning, looks like I will most likely go with them.

Great fish!...But can we talk about the purse on your boat!?!?!...Please tell us that's not yours!

That is a Browning Worm Bag....SIR!!!!!!
(need to be sure and crops those pics a little better)

Ducts, since the fish was caught in NE Texas, I'd go with lake Fork Taxidermy. You won't be sorry.

he caught it next to that buoy he sits by a lot.

Lake Fork is as good as they get , I've had fish done there

All those bouys look alike.

aaahhh ...My apologies

our replicas

Stax...Is this better?

That's great!!!

I am getting a double mount of the two fish I caught on Austin with one cast through Fishscale Taxidermy. will post pics once they are complete.

I have 2 at Lake Fork right now. They are pretty backed up right now. I can tell you that.

It appears to be the fish's anal fin that got caught between his fingers.
Anyway awesome fish man!

nice fish...

It's a "Satchel"

Lake fork did mine, and it looks great

Looks like I am going with Lake Fork Taxidermy...thanks for everyones input!

They all are this time of year.

LFT and FST both do EXCELLENT work. They have both done fish for me and I was extremely happy with both replicas. You cannot go wrong with either.

I got my PB replica from Lake Fork. They did a fantastic job, at a competitive price, exactly on schedule. My fish was very pale and I was afraid it would just be a cream-colored side with a stripe of green across the back. They far exceeded my expectations -- the attention to detail is amazing.

I can't comment on Fish Scale but I can wholeheartedly recommend the Pierce Brothers.

I like FST's because they appear more realistic to my eye. I really dislike seeing replicas with solid white bellies from their bottom to darn near their black stripe with no black dots or details in between. The FST mounts appear to be much more realistic with their color blends from mid-line to belly and they seem to have richer, more natural color blends.

Hey Don, I read your post a couple of times and your story is awesome...what a day for you...congrats!

Fish scale for sure he's done one for me and some for buddies of mine they are top notch. Awesome price and quick and amazing detail. Everyone that's seen mine says its the best they have ever seen. I'm about to send pics of my lake Leon record to him to have it done.
