Title: Taxidermy recommendations near Lake Stevens
Post by: davk on July 05, 2016, 09:23:42 PM: Just looking to have everything lined up before the season and not be scrambling if I get something I want mounted. A google search left much to be desired, and I searched the names on here and only saw Moro mentioned. Would be looking at deer and elk shoulder mounts, and a bear rug. Who has recommendations?

Don't have an issue with them, just didn't see many opinions on others. Moro was the only one I saw mentioned. Im open to all, just wanted to see who people recommend or don't recommend.

Post by: ebusa on July 07, 2016, 08:21:03 AM: I also recommend Fildago Taxidermy. Garth and Tammy do outstanding work!

I had them do 2 mule deer mounts, and they are currently working on my lifesize cougar mount.

They should be done with my cougar any day now. Bad news is I've waited 1 year and 7 months...,but I know it will be done right!

I cringe every time I think about driving through Seattle. Some great looking mounts on their site though.
