Who do you guys trust with your walleye mounts? I'm looking to put a fish on the wall, but don't know who is quality out there.

Zespy. hands down! He is doing a walleye for me now. True...it will be a while but will be worth the wait. I have seen his fish mounts! He has done 2 rooster mounts for me over the years and for my buddy he has done 2 antelope, 2 deer, a rooster, and a walleye.

Just don't try and get Wayne Zespy an antelope head. He has had mine for over 3 years. Its awesome waiting for a big game mount to get back that I shot in 2011. Yay.

yeah..my walleye has been over a year but..oh well...but yeah..I hear ya. He kinda dropped a hint that he would only be accepting fish in the future( finish his current stuff of course) but only take fish going forward...that's the vibe I got from him anyway.

I have two deer at a taxidermist. Been there since 2012. I hope he preserved the velvet on the one.

I dropped off a walleye to Wayne last fall. I hope I see it by Christmas. He did my last one(s) in 24 days though so I am ok with a wait on this one.

This is a mount that I saw in GF Scheels. I liked it and took a couple pics, later found out it was a Zespy. Figured I would add some pics to the thread. I have another of a Greenback mounted by a guy in Fargo. I will get those up in a couple minutes, I have to find them in my puter.

For some reason the Overbaugh pics didn't work but click the attached thumbnail and a small pic will pop up. Pretty close to how the Winnipeg greenbacks look. Closest I have seen anyway.
