Looking for recommendations for a taxidermist who does great work on trout. My son caught a 28” rainbow on the Betsie that we want to put on a wall. Any leads are appreciated. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

Made the run up GH hoping to find some salmon at the pier heads. Fished 7:30-9:30, no bites and saw no fish being fought on other boats. Water was cold enough, and we marked fish. Disappointing, I thought this might be the 1 weekend for a push of fish. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman
