A guy I know does it for about $12/inch. The prices around here seem to vary from $10-15/inch. Not that I have ever caught any big enough yet,

Taxidermy is pretty cool stuff. Difficult though on fish. I've mounted a few bream that came out all right, but never tried a bass. Fur is different. I have very nice raccoon,fox and deer rugs I did on my own. ALso have an owl I found dead on the road.
