T&A Fish Taxidermy was born in 1998 when I decided to blend my love of fishing and the artistic skills that I possessed. I was taught via books and a video in the early stages, and then attended my first convention in 2001.  My work immediately improved after this as I met and became friends with some of the greatest fish taxidermists on the planet. Through one on one instruction, judging and critiquing my work, and other random discussions with these gentlemen, I was able to get better with each piece. 

I try to stay on the cutting edge of technology by attending several conventions each year, where the latest and greatest products and techniques are showcased.  If you should choose to take your fish elsewhere, I strongly suggest that you do yourself a favor and go to a taxidermist that also competes and attends these conventions. 

As I see more fish, I learn more about them. To recreate anything with much success, one must spend considerable time studying it. The more I am able to study and as my work improves, I know that I will be a better taxidermist tomorrow than I am today. My goal is your total satisfaction, and I strive to have no piece leave the shop without this.
