Taxidermist for crappie? - 11/29/18 09:36 PM
Not mine, but a guy is looking for a good taxidermist to mount a scrawny little ol 3 lb crappie he caught last weekend. Anybody got a good recommendation especially with pictures?

I don't know where you are located, but Kevin Glover in Milton, Fl does the best crappie and bass mounts I've ever seen anywhere. Pm me and I will send some pics of some he did for me.

Send a picture to Archie Phillips Taxidermy with measurements for a replica and then eat the original

Scottie Ringanouldis in Spanish Fort did one for me... if someone can post the picture for me, I'll send it to them. It turned out really nice. He won the world championships back in the 90's with a crappie mount.

Wow, that's close to home. I caught those crappies for Scotty and traded in return a duck mount! Scotty is/was as good as they come. I'm not certain he is still in business. I do know this....he was so good he was being inundated with work so badly he doubled his prices and it didn't slow up. If any of you have ever seen all those full body mount deer at the mall in Mobile during the holidays he is the one who mounted them.

He is still in business, but is very selective in what he does. He will not take a fish with a broken fin. He's done several mounts for my family over the years. The one he did for me was a shade over 3lbs caught in Lucedale, MS.

Does he just do fish? I'm still looking for a good "Taxi" down here in Baldwin.

He has a showroom with all kinds of animals in it. His work is top notch, but it isn't cheap and it takes him a while.

Lester Williams in Bay Minette does good work and has reasonable prices.
