If you go on line there are a ton of options for replicas. Ive spoken with several taxidermist and skin mounts will eventually peel, not a matter of IF, but When. If you have an eye for art, you will notice the replicas typically look better and your turn around is a lot quicker. Before you give your fish to anyone, look at some of their work. Ive only "Skin mounted" 2 fish in my life. Both were trout, one looks great, the older-total crap. If I ever do another fish, it will be a replica.
