Caught my first trophy grade bass and need some recommendations for a good taxidermy shop in the Baton Rouge area. Looking to do a skin on not a reproduction.

I used Clayton Callender in Oyska, MS to do these. Me and my 12 yr old son caught in our lake back in March a few days apart. He did both for $400. Great dude and does good work.

I went to Jim Bourne in Denham Springs, when I tell you my jaw dropped when I saw it I mean it. Other taxidermist go to him to paint some of their mounts, I think he uses auto paint on the fish

Get a replica. It’ll look great and last much longer.

Is Nicky Bonura still doing it? The one he did for me is still the most realistic bass mount I have ever seen.

Didnt have appropriate measuring tape to get the right stats for a replica.
