To comment on the "Mysterious Mounting Place' that we refer to often, this is the company that expertly mounts your fish and then ships the finished trophy to your home in the USA or Canada.  The time frame is the Mystery.  Often the mount is delivered within 3 months and other times it takes much longer.  When one of our anglers sends a fish for mounting we make a note that we can expect an inquiry in 3 months, something like "Where is my fish?".  Then in 4 months another inquiry arrives that will say, "Hey, I paid for the mounting and have not heard anything". 

The 5th and 6th month mark may bring a note like "Where the #@%$ is my %#$& fish?".  Well, no one has lost a mount yet despite the wait. We recently received a note from a couple who waited so long for their Sailfish that they had to look back at their photos to see which way the sail went.  But don't despair, your mounted fish will bring back the thrill of the fight and when it arrives you will forget about the time that you waited to receive it.
