Hi Guys,

I got lucky tonight and caught a 7 pound 3 oz smallmouth. It was out of 30 feet of water, and after a long fight and numerous jumps, it instantly went belly up. I do not own a tool to vent the fish unfortunately. I decided that instead of it just going to waste, I would get a mount done. Would someone be able to tell me a place to get a good quality mount done? I am willing to drive a ways from Kingston if necessary to have it done well. Any help would be appreciated.

Great catch Roaster! What she bite on? Unfortunately I've never had a mount done so I can't help you there, but be sure to let us know how the mount comes out with a pic.

Here are a couple of fish that I have completed. The rainbow trout is a reproduction and the largemouth bass is a skin mount.
