Take it to Dewey. It's not going to be cheap but quality never is and you only catch your first one time.

Seems like anything with legs is expensive compared to a deer shoulder mount. Size doesn't always matter with regard to the work required.

Wouldn’t it be cute if you could get him mounted in that same pose he’s in?? My red fox mount cost me over a grand with the addition of the base. Excellent work tho and I had a year to save after putting down the deposit. First one is special.

Yea, he talks a big game. Never had a fisher mounted but have a coyote, grey fox and an otter. Spend the money you want a good job, even though the passenger seat of your trapping rig is where you'll have it displayed

Had my first mounted in 2008, turned out great and no regrets. Daltons Taxidermy in WV, he did great and was reasonable

I caught one of the early, legal fisher in Alaska, probably 6-7 years or so ago, and had a pretty good life-size done. I got a pretty good deal, as the taxidermist was a friend of mine. Think he charged me around $650.00, including taxidermy tanning, (at Moyle's), form, base, etc.
Understand, that was an exceptional deal, and wouldn't be surprised if he charged double that, now.


Just doing what I want now.

Sent my first to Moyles, got it tanned.
Add in the shipping, and that was expensive enough, lol
