Taxidermy recommendation please - reproduction 17 Years, 6 Months ago  
Hi,

I had a great trip to Alaska this year with my wife. I was thinking of getting her a repro of one of her rainbows. Can any of you recommend a reproduction taxidermist?

Thanks,

John

You might try Carbone's Guide Service in Prineville, Oregon. I fished with him a week ago and believe he does reproductions. I know he does carvings, and does outstanding work!

Beautiful carvings Phil...I called to get a price but I guess he's out fishing. And John the colors on that rainbow sure jump out at you - beautiful fish.

Sonny, the black lab, ran ahead to make sure there were no gophers or jackrabbits in the way. If you don't give a dog a specific job, he'll improvise one for himself and it will invariably be fun. There's a lesson there.

If you talk to him, mention I referred you. He may not remember my name. Rich Chicca and I fished with him about 10 days ago on the Deschutes. Good Guide!

If I mention your name is he going to charge me more or less???
Did you drift or walk the Deschutes? I used to fish it quite a bit both for the steelies and the redsides. I must admit I sure do miss it.

Probably more!

We drifted Trout Creek to Warm Springs both days. Nice float.

Stassi Taxidermy 17 Years, 6 Months ago  
Steve Stassi is an excellent taxidermist. He has won numerous awards for his blacktail mounts and does a great job on everything he does. He makes reproduction fish mounts.

He is located just East of Marysville in Hallwood.

Stassi Taxidermy
8269 Hallwood Blvd
Marysville, CA 95901

Phone: (530) 741-0843

For the sake of full disclosure, Steve is my cousin.
Let him know that I sent you. You won't get a price break, but he will probably tell you stories about me that I wouldn't tell you.
