I want to get all 5 mounted like a stringer I think. Depending on cost.

I would think something like that would easily cost 1k but idk. $200 per fish would be under what I've seen it priced at

Yeah I think they may discount for 5 at once. I was thinking it was probably 1k. Not sure though. I've never had a trout mounted.

You did the Bro Mo Fishing Rodeo? If so I was there and those trout were huge

Yeah that was me. I've been fishing that rodeo hard every year. I would always lose by tenths of a pound. I had em by 5 pounds this year. Catching 1 or 2 nice ones happens but 5 on the day of a rodeo is tough. It might not happen again for me.. ha ha.. That's why I'm thinking about getting them mounted.

Did you fish it too?

I'll post a photo later. I don't have a good one in my phone right now.

I really need to know where to ask about mounting

I hate you. I really hate you. You make me hate you when skies are blue. You'll never know Tree, how much I hate you, please don't take my hate for you away.

Nice work. I'm jealous in case you can't tell.

and pics...

Call Matthew Courville, he does some excellent fish work. He's in Carencro but worth the drive.

No. CHS in BR. I hate that you caught that heavy a stringer. I fished a small tournament out of Dulac this weekend. My stringer was 12.96 and I was only beat by a 14 lb stringer. that's a good stringer in my area.

I'm jealous of your trout, not your school.

What year?

ETA: Last time I talked to someone about mounting a fish it was something egregious, like $12/inch.

Yea I only got to fish Saturday and we had no luck. One of our team members fished Friday and caught a red that got second place in the red category, third overall (26.55 lbs).
