    Fish Mounts...???

    Hey guys - I have been pondering getting a nice mount of a bluefin for the dungeon at home. I have looked at Global, King Sailfish, New Wave, etc etc. Does anyone actually have a nice bluefin mount at their house? Pictures? Price?

    I have got a couple of quotes from the companies mentioned above. New Wave seems to be the best quality and most detailed, but definitely more expensive.

    Any input would be great.

    Thanks,
    -Bryan

    I personally know Bill from GLOBAL and he just did a tail mount for me. I came out really nice and the turn around was about 4 weeks. The color was fantatic and I was very pleased with the caution he took while shipping it. Bill worked for GREY'S before he started GLOBAL and he knows the business. He just finished a 18', yes 18 foot Great White mount for the guys on the GO FISCH of Offshore adventure. I'm sure you'll be pleased.

    Do you have any pics of your mount? How much did you pay for it?

    This was a 113" fish. The tail, from tip to tip is 33 3/4". I hope these pics do the coloring justice. You'll will have to check the GLOBAL website for a price. I was given a deal on the mount, but I'd guess you'll pay somewhere around $500?

    Nice Tail!

    The colors on that tail are great! I like it.

    I've been browsing the King Sailfish site and they have a 84"oal mount that looks pretty good. The price isn't bad either.
