Your Trusted Taxidermist Near Manitowoc, WI

Manitowoc and Two Rivers are classic Lake Michigan fishing ports, with charter and pier anglers landing chinook and coho salmon, brown trout, lake trout, and steelhead through the season. Inland, the Manitowoc and West Twin rivers and the area’s marshes hold ducks, geese, walleye, and pike, while the surrounding farm country and woodlots produce strong whitetail and excellent spring turkey. Our specialties run deep — lifelike whitetail shoulder and pedestal mounts, dramatic flying and standing waterfowl, full-body and life-size bear, and museum-grade big-game and exotic work. European skull mounts are available too, but they’re just one small part of what we do.
