As for price Nimrod I had an 8LB.13OZ bass mounted for just over $200 a couple Summer's ago and I wanna say crappie wasn't but like $175ish or so, maybe cheaper so not too bad. The guy who did my fish did a really good job too but said deer are what's high these days at nearly $500/mount! Now if I got one that beat my current 10PT I'd prolly mount it but I might cry about it too, lol.
