Greenback Mount

[Fishin Technician]

I've seen this discussed before, but cannot remember the answers. Which taxidermist would you guys prefer to get a greenback replica done from, Telesky's or Hawkins? Your help would be greatly appreciated.

[Starodub]

Look up Starodub in Winnipeg on Google.

He's the best I think.

Another tip, order the biggest fish he has and then get a tag made for yours. Keep adding tags or redoing if you'ld like then.

Personally, I've found replica's tend to run smaller than reproductions, be careful of that. In other words, your 12 lb looks like a 10

Star is the best, by far. He can be contacted @

Hope this helps

Thanx guys. I checked out a fish posted by Backwater Eddy on a Starodub mount, and it was definitely a fine quality mount. I don't quite get the tag thing that you were referring to. I'd like to post a pic of the greenback I caught but am unsure how. It was a 13.3 pound fish though.

Had a twelve pounder done by Starodub almost twenty years ago "freeze dried" still looks like it just jumped out of the water.
And if i recall right it was ten dollars an in. back then
