Cross Hare Taxidermy provides all taxidermy services including shoulder mounts, life-size mounts, European/Texas mounts, head mounts, horn repair, birds, and reproduction fish, custom work, repairs and displays.
All hides are tanned at Cross Hare Taxidermy to ensure enjoyment of your trophy for decades. We never use dry preservative which can often result in yellowish, discolored mounts that come apart.
Granted a dry preservative is the fastest and cheapest way to mount your trophy, but you get what you pay for in the end.
I also recommend and encourage anglers to consider reproduction fish instead of a skin mount fish. Skin mounted fish are a one time shot that will start to deteriorate after a few years. If a real fin breaks or scales come out, there is a very slim chance it can be repaired to a natural looking state. A reproduction is fixable and will never go through a shrinking stage ensuring decades of enjoyment.
ATTENTION HUNTERS!

If in doubt, print out the instructions and put them in your pack. Remember, the mount quality starts with you in the field.
