Thread: Trophies

Billy, I asked that question a while back and the answer was not good. There aren't any per say unless you buy a scale form like taxidermist use. They are very costly! Try a call to this guy his name is Ken, he is a taxidermist off of Gordon Road. 803-981-7559 He told me when I was looking for a crappie trophy he would try to help me get one. Let me know if you get a trophy because that's what we want for our events. Good Luck!

Good luck finding Crappie toppers. I have been looking since 07 with no luck finding any. Perch is what everyone uses and what they call a Crappie. Better than a bass I guess.

I actually was able to find a single manufacturer out of California, but the cost is over 100.00 plus shipping. May I make a suggestion. A plague is a better alternative to a free standing trophy. You could get a crappie etched or printed on the cover plate. Or a cheaper version, one that could easily be made is to get a framed crappie print and get an engraved plate stating date, finish, and event and attach to picture frame and use as the award.

The shop on Herlong next to Bojangles can order them for you. But stop at the bank and take out a loan to pay for em. A guy that fishes with us did some plauqes for us for the Clash. He laser etched a crappie on some of them for us. P.M. me and I will give you his name. Maybe he can work with you on something.

Thanks everyone one for the info,
Trying to get something lined up for 4 events. I won’t talk about on here because of rules involving tournaments

I was going to recommend the same, an image on whatever presentstion method you choose would be best. Back when i raced snowmobiles, the best trophies i got were wood plaques etched, engraved by a wood shop at the local high school.

Try H&R Trophies at www.hrtrophies.com. They have small/large trophies as well as plaques for what seems to be reasonable prices.
