Out of my 2 keepers this week, I caught one 2 lb 1 oz and I got my largest ever this morning, 2 lb 12 oz. I'm thinking of getting her mounted unless I get a bigger one in the next two days. Who does a good job on crappie? I'm probably going to overnight it somewhere. All the taxidermists around my part of the state just do critters. That's Steve's finger in the bottom of the pic.

congrats Steve, I hope you get a bigger one tomorrow :)
Wow Scott....thats a nice fish.....congrats buddy.
Congrats on the big one, but there's no picture.

I have a 34.8 turkey in full strut in a cameo cabinet with black lights that he has won several awards with. He has also done a 6.12 rainbow that looks like it could swim out of my office.
Don's Taxidermy
Independence, MO. sorry I don't have a number here at work. I'll get it and send you a PM, if you think you would want to consider him.
It's on my PC now. Nice fish.
You might search this site. A saw a post recently from Jerry Blake showing some mounted crappie. He said they were the best mount that he had seen. I am sure he has seen his share of mounts. I will see if I can find it for you.
There is fellow in Mendenhall that does an excellent job. If you need it, I can get his name.
I thought this was gonna be about MOUNTING WB on the wall of shame.
Steve, without a doubt, archie phillips in alabama. He has mounted 6 or 7 fish for me, including a 4 lb crappie and he does outstanding work. Some have been almost 30 years ago, and they look like they were done yesterday.
Nice fish, but I would fry her up. Hold out for a true 3+ lber. You are still young enough that you can make many more trips to Grenada before ya croak...maybe! :D I am holding out for a 4 lber, I have filleted a bunch of 3 lb fish.
Very nice fish Scott good job.
That's awesome Steve
Nice fish Scott. If I was still down there I would come out of retirement and mount it for you. If I were you I would hold out for a 3. That tail can be fixed, but not a real good canidate for a great mount.

Here is the info that I told you I would try to find from Jerry Blake. I have not used their service but I am sure that Jerry would not recommend them if they weren't first class.
