hey guys.  i was wondering if y'all would be so kind as to give me your recommendations on places that do quality lmb replica mounts.  i would be particularly interested in hearing from folks who have had one done somewhere and how they felt about it.  maybe post a link to the co.'s  website if you could.  i am lookin' to get one done soon (hopefully).  

i would love to say money is no object, but unfortunately it is.  i'd like to keep it under $400 if possible, but can you get good work done at this price range?   last bps catalog i got had an advertisement for "wildlife creations".  their work looked to be good at a very reasonable price, but i realize this was an ad.  has anyone had any experience with their work?  

i have also been told that you cannot get an exact replica with your fish's measurements if they do not have a mold for those proportions already.  true?  also,  what would i have to supply.  anything more than length and girth measurements and a few pics?

guys, i realize this is a lot of questions and i appreciate any help i can get.  it's just if i'm going to make this kind of investment in a piece of fiberglass, i want it done right.  i'm sure there is probably already a thread on here about this somewhere, but there might be some new info since then.  thank you so much for any help y'all can give.  

Fish Chris is getting a smallie done right now.  Here is a link to his thread.  Might try talking to him.http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1201975685/all

I used Lake Fork Taxidermy last year.  Excellent work, but slow.  They shipped it directly to my doorstep.  I provided length, girth, weight, and pictures.  Price was within your budget.
