Looking for a good taxidermist for Crappies.


Recommended Posts

Anyone have a reccommendation for a good taxidermist in the area? Specifically for a stringer mount of 5 nice Crappies? Thanks in advance.

Mount 'Em Taxidermy in Clearwater does a very good job. He does take a little longer so if you are looking to get them back right away I wouldn't use him. His phone number is 320 558-2419

I have to agree with fish about jims taxidermy. He has done a walleye, a wood duck and a buck for me. All turned out fantastic and I get compliments on the mounts all the time. A few on this site have seen my mounts and maybe if they see this post they will tell ya what they think. I also have a cousin who jim did a crappie and sunfish for.

Real nice work wink.gif

Sorry, I'm confused, Is it Tim's taxidermy in Maple Lake or Jim's in Clearwater or ??? Thanks for your help.

I've looked in the yellow pages and found Tim's Taxidermy and Tredwell Custom Taxidermy both in Maple Lake. Is either of these the "Jim" you are referring to? Thanks for all the help, The "Tim & Jim" show is a little confusing.

There's a guy in Coon Rapids who works out of his house and does an excellent crappie at a very competitive price. I have one crappie on my wall and will definitely go back to him next time. It's been a while but I think his name is Jack Hanson and he's listed in the phone book.

Warren Wehmas out of Big Lake is good too. He's got his own shop behind his house and is very helpful with options. Fish, birds, mammals, and antler mounts. The guy uses mostly word of mouth and doesn't advertise.

      Looks like you could use a FM hat. 😉    The future son in law prefers the lump coal.  He’ll start it in coal starter over a propane burner, then dump in it his smoker grill as needed.   Congrats on the clean break “over there”.

      Should really start a What yeah Smoking thread!    Another fun place we tried when up in Duluth. OMC stands for "Oink, Moo, Cluck" They serve pork cracklins for starter to test their sauces on.

      On the east side of St. Boni. It's not too far from me. A friend lives in St Boni and loves the place. I haven't tried it yet.

      First time ever going there with the wife. Little spendy but they make some darn good piles of meat! We had the brisket! 😋

      I have heard it's because of the drought. I know in my area ( meeker co.) the sloughs that they trap minnows in have dried up.

      Excuse my ignorance, but was is driving the bait prices? Usually the shortage is due to a late ice-out from the swamps and streams. This year should have been much better.

      I should probably learn to use the 6+ containers of lures I have collecting dust in my tackle box. We got on a decent crappie bite the last couple of evenings and I broke out some plastics.  I caught some crappies on them ,just need to build my confidence in using them! I did notice they didn't seem to hold on to them as long as minnows!

      Great news, thank Skunked
