As someone who has spent a lifetime on the water as a captain,
I've been fortunate enough to share in countless memories of
great catches. Nothing brings back the memory of that special
day like having the memory immortalized on your wall. No company
in the world has mounted more memories than Gray's Taxidermy.
I had the chance recently to take a behind the scenes tour to
witness the art of taxidermy first hand. It all starts with the
molds, and Gray's has the largest collection of quality molds in
the world.
You should see the mold for a grander bluefin...
I was blown away by the sheer number of mounts being made in the
factory. Sharks and billfish of every species, all shapes and
sizes, hanging from the ceiling at every turn.
The finished product is truly a work of art. The people that paint
these fish pay attention to every small detail, matching a
fisherman's photo scale for scale.
We saw wall mounts, head mounts,
side mounts, vertical mounts, they even make the hottest miniature
mounts for tournament trophies.
From flying fish to the biggest blue marlin I've ever seen,
Gray's Taxidermy has it all. What an
eye opening tour...
It was too windy to fish today, but the second it lays down we'll
be out there trying to catch our next trophy to order from Gray's
Taxidermy...

The doors at Gray Taxidermy are always open. Anyone who visits our facility for a personal tour will have a memorable experience. After seeing the craftsmanship up close you will have a new appreciation of the process of modern day marine taxidermy.
ReplyDeleteThe work that our artists create on a daily basis is unmatched in the industry, and after seeing these trophy fish mounts in person you will most likely be eager to get out and catch your own trophy.
