    Just finished my buddy’s(yamadog)walleye mount. We were up fishing with Chris Granrud last winter when he got this beauty. He caught this fish less than 10 feet under the ice. The fish was going to be released, but for reasons unkown he could not revive the fish. So we were not going to let it go to waste and I offered to mount it up for him. I am not a professional taxidermist, but hopefully he is happy with it. At least the price was right buddy Next time you aren’t getting away so cheap

    We measured the fish at 29 and some odd inches, but when I got home to take measurements for mounting it was actually 30 inches on the nose!!

    Way to do something with the walleye instead of just pushing it back down the hole not knowing if it will live. And the mount looks great to me!

    Very nice Average Sportsman!! That was a great fish!! I remember coming out to check on you boys in one of the rentals and seeing that Dolphin wrapped out on the ice!! LOL!! Fish to be proud of!! 30 incher through the ice is awesome!! Suppose anyone took note of the depth?? LOL!! SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! Look forward to you boys fishing again this year. FYI With all Fishhouse rentals I’m also including some Portable destination Coordinates for those looking to do some movin and Groovin too!! You know in case 30 inchers out of a living room type setting in your T-shirt isn’t your cup of tea, and you’d rather feel like your working for them

    Chris, does this include sleds? Or do we have to haul those up?

    Thanks,

    Hey FDR,

    Permanents will be drive to via Truck, but for most portable destinations you’ll want to bring your own Sled or Atv. For those I’m guiding I have my 2 sleds we’ll utilize worked out in the guide pricing. Anyway fish house rental is $200.00 per day and they fish 4 per house. Starting to get booked up, so might want to get your dates coordinated with the boys!!

    C$ Taxidermy is a retirement plan for me, so for the next 18-20 years I am only doing work for family and friends. Sorry I couldn’t help out.

    Thanks for the comments guys!
