As with our mammal and bird work, our fish creations are a work of art. Rick has won numerous state, regional, national and international competition in three dimensional fish art. Rick's fish recreations are displayed in numerous Northwest dam and fish hatchery visitors centers, museums and in homes all over the U.S. and other countries.

Catch And Release
"How I got started"

Rick's father, being an avid fisherman, encouraged him to specialize in the field of three dimensional fish art. Also seeing the decline in the numbers of wild fish, Rick's father ingrained in him the virtues of catch and release. With the support of his family, all of whom share his love of the outdoors and nature, Rick's wildlife art business flourished allowing him to develop a line of fiberglass fish reproductions sold nationwide which aid taxidermists in the promotion of catch and release.

Hang A Memory On The Wall

Did you catch and release or eat a trophy fish you wish you would have had mounted? We can duplicate any fish from a picture or description and measurements. if you do not have measurements we can estimate them, smolts to sailfish, we can do them all. We can even do a custom bronze of your trophy.

Our fish are a work of art and many people have asked to have them signed. They will last indefinitely.  Because we have molded our own fish blanks for many years, we are not limited to using inferior blanks and our finishing techniques are exceptional. We love to do 360 degree fully finished pedestal fish mounts on beautiful realistic looking habitat bases. If you can envision it we can create it. Call for a special quote. We also offer custom skin mounting of your fish, call for details.

CARE OF FISH FOR SKIN MOUNTS

  • Keep the fish wet and cold at all times.
  • Wrap it in wet paper towels.
  • Place it in a plastic bag and seal out the air.
  • Freeze flat with the selected show side up.
  • Never gut a skin mount, although if you do they can be repaired.

How Your Photo Should look!

How to Measure:

It is ideal to have an overall length measurement from the top of the tail to the tip of the lower jaw, and a girth measurement at the front of the dorsal fin. A small 1/4" piece of tape works well or a piece of string with knots tied at the length & girth marks.
