I was wondering who can do a good Brown Trout from lake Michigan. I live in the Menomonee falls Area. Looking for a local Taxidermist in the area. I was hoping for some good references.
Thank you
How about a lake trout taxidermist in Wisconsin/UP? I'd like to see some pictures of past work done. I caught a nice splake a few weeks back north of Marinette. Looking to get a skin mount done with it. Its a beautiful fish and I'd like the mount to look it too. I talked with Mark at Second Nature. He's on vacation till mid June and can't send me any pictures of his work till then. (couple pic's on his website do look nice though) Nice guy to chat with... very informative. I've looked at a couple of guys work mentioned below and don't see much on the Char species. Browns look nice though.
Thanks
Many yrs ago a WI DNR biologists recommended Twin River Taxidermy Two Rivers. I have 4 of his mounts including a brown. Lake Trout is the most difficult due to all the oil. It still looks the same as when I picked it up in 1997!

Keith Kania (Wausau) mounted all of my Lake Michigan fish (Brown, Rainbow, Laker) and they all look great and have held up real well for probably 20 years. In fact, Keith mounted all the fish and deer I ever had stuffed.
Keith used to have a brother in SE Wisconsin where you could drop off your specimen. Not sure if they're doing that anymore.
Just google Keith Kania Taxidermy.
