They had some great work on display there.

I’m having a walleye replica being made right now. I asked around quite a bit before I decided where to have it done and I got a lot of glowing reports for Artistic Anglers out of Duluth. The number for Artistic Anglers is 800-544-7466. He delivers finished product to the Twin Cities or can send them so location isn’t an issue. I did have a recomendation or two for Fiber Tech too when I checked around.
I have since seen Artistic Anglers product at the sports show and I have to say it lives up to the reputation. Awesome looking replicas! The down side is the turn around. It takes about 9 months to go from order to fish in hand. I believe the price is $10 an inch for a walleye plus a little extra if you want wood or rocks.
Thanks guys for the info. My brother-in-law had mentioned someone up in the Brainerd area but he couldn’t remember the name. I’ll check these 2 places out, then I’ll have to convince the wife its a good idea. Thanks again!
In recent years the popularity of sport fishing has increased throughout North America, even to the more remote
areas of Canada and Alaska. The increased fishing pressure, coupled with environmental encroachments-increased
population, destruction of habitat, industrial pollution and urban development- has greatly decreased the sport of
fishing, especially those of trophy size.
Fiber Tech Productions under the leadership of Mike Thelen and Master Mold Designer Chuck Riley have joined
forces with a consortium of leading fish taxidermist from Alaska, Canada and the Contiguous Untied States for the
purpose of educating the anglers to promote Catch, Photo and Release.
Fiber Tech Productions, located just north of Brainerd MN, specializes in Fiberglass Carbon Graphite Trophy Fish
Reproductions. Most recently seen on TNN Outdoors, Outdoor Minnesota, Hook Line & Sinker channel 5 News
These mounts are made in “True Replica Form”. Each fish is custom painted by local air brush artist, backed with
over 30 years of experience.
Our prices run $11.00 per inch. We request a 100.00 deposit to begin the replica. Final payment is due upon
completion which takes about 6-8 weeks.
