Default RE: NJ PA OR DE taxidermists

NJ, Im not sure if George is still doing skin mount fish, or even taking many fish in right now, I know hes swamped. Hes definitely in the top two or three in the east, for sure. I can say so with certainty, Im a taxidermist, and Ive been to his studio and also judged his fish work at shows. There are very few who can detail a fish as he does. My advice to you, however, would be to get an old dish towel, soaking wet, wrap the fish into it, and put that into a plastic bag and freeze. Then check out some work, and not feel rushed. George Dante in NJ, Rick Krane in NH, Rick Streeter in NY, those are some very high end fish taxidermists. Be aware that many of the finest taxidermists are sometimes specialists, and many do not advertise...
