Default Northern Pike Replica
I was wondering if I could get some input on a good fish taxidermist in the DesMoines Iowa area? I caught a 44" Northern this spring and was considering getting a replica made. Lots of taxidermists out there just wanting to narrow my search a bit. Thanks for any help.

Try Lax Reproductions or Fittante Taxidermy & Fish Replicas. They are both in wisconsin and both do great work. Check out their websites for examples of what they do

I have used this company for our client fish for over 20 years without fail. Very quick turn around also.

Call Matt at Artistic Anglers in Duluth. He simply does the best work. His shipping prices are extremely reasonable as well.

I had the boys at Bass Pro paint one up a few years ago. I'm more than pleased with the quality of art work!

Thanks for all the information. The people you have suggested all do very nice work. And after thinking about it I guess it really doesn't matter who does it since it will be a replica. I appreciate all the input.

Congrats on the pike. My advice would be to wait and go back and catch her when she is 46 or 48.
