Tiger Fish Replica Recommendations
Does anyone have a recommendation for a good place to get a tiger fish replica here in the States? I found several on Google, but don't have any references on them.

I used advanced taxidermy out of Canada and I live in Idaho. Great design and execution. I would use them again.

They have many pictures in their fish gallery.

Go to www.advancedtaxidermy.com

Click on "fish"

Got toward bottom of page for a list of species they have done. Check out examples

I had them do the Arctic char in the case.

Lhook, I will second Rick Krane at Anglers Artistry. He is easily the most knowledgeable fish guy I have ever met, and his service is second to none

Wait until DSC convention and buy one - quickly - from Cuan Meredith at the TCI booth. He'll likely have several on display, and even if you go there first, many will already have a "sold" sticker on them ....

Already I was beginning to fall into the African way of thinking: That if
you properly respect what you are after, and shoot it cleanly and on
the animal's terrain, if you imprison in your mind all the wonder of the
day from sky to smell to breeze to flowers—then you have not merely
killed an animal. You have lent immortality to a beast you have killed
because you loved him and wanted him forever so that you could always
recapture the day - Robert Ruark

Gray Taxidermy would be the LAST place I'd EVER recommend! I like my mount, but the process of getting them to finish the damned thing involved me contacting the Broward County attorney general!

I'd look to King Sailfish mounts and see if they can do it. They seem like a reputable company.

Gun Control - A theory espoused by some monumentally stupid people; who claim to believe, against all logic and common sense, that a violent predator who ignores the laws prohibiting them from robbing, raping, kidnapping, torturing and killing their fellow human beings will obey a law telling them that they cannot own a gun.

I'd recommend Advanced Taxidermy. Talk to Shawn Galea. They are top shelf replica Taxidermists and do an outstanding job on fish. I've included the Tigerfish page for you to examine. LDK

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."
