Can anyone refer me to a great place to get a pike replica of a fish I caught?

 Try this ....www.flexfish.com    it's a newer product of a "flex" replica, including flexable fins.
 He's up here in Wpg, Manitoba, but he ships everywhere.
 check it out!

All I have to say is use caution when getting a replica done. I have seen way too many that are just plain ugly. I am very picky when it comes to taxidermy and want as lifelike as possible. IMO This usually can't be done with replicas so if you donn't want to keep the fish I preffer to just have a nice picture framed. Much cheaper and usually looks better. I still haven' t seen a repro that I like.

Your looking at the wrong replicas then Maki because several companies are doing fantastic work. I have seen lots of real mounts I wouldnt give you a wooden nickle for. As far as replicas go, some are much better than others. The ones that Water Wolf are reffering to are pretty impressive.
Being in the great outdoors is not a matter of life or death. Its far more important than that!
