Summary of our King Salmon Mounts

Scientific Name: Oncorhynchus tshawytscha Average Weight: 36 inches 30 lbs The record is 58 inches and 126 lbs Also know as chinook, king. quinnat, tyee, tule, blackmouth, and spring salmon. Chinook/King salmon are found in fresh water streams and estuaries that provide important habitat for spawning chinook, and which also serve as nursery grounds for developing eggs, fry, and juveniles. In North America, chinook salmon are found from the Monterey Bay area of California all the way to the Chukchi Sea area of Alaska. Chinook salmon are also found on the Asian coast from the Anadyr River area of Siberia southward to Hokkaido, Japan. In Alaska, they are abundant from the southeastern panhandle all the way to the Yukon River. Major populations return to the Yukon, Kuskokwim, Nushagak, Susitna, Kenai, Copper, Alsek, Taku, and Stikine rivers. Chinook salmon are the largest of the Pacific salmon, and although rare, some individuals grow to more than 100 pounds. Most mature chinook are under 50 pounds. The Chinook salmon is the largest of all Pacific salmon, typically measuring 36-40 inches in length, often exceeding 35-40 pounds.

Color Patterns of our King Salmon Mounts

Adults are distinguished by the black irregular spotting on the back and dorsal fins and on both lobes of the caudal or tail fin. Chinook salmon also have a black pigment along the gum line, "blackmouth" in some areas. In the ocean, the Chinook salmon is a robust, deep-bodied fish with bluish-green coloration on the back which fades to a silvery color on the sides and white on the belly. Colors of spawning Chinook salmon in fresh water range from red to silver to deep gray, depending on location and degree of maturation. Males typically have more red coloration than females, which are typically gray. Older adult males (4-7 years) are distinguished by their "ridgeback" condition and by their hooked jaw. Females are distinguished by a torpedo-shaped body, thick mid-section, and short noses. Juveniles in fresh water (fry) are recognized by well-developed parr marks which are bisected by the lateral line. Chinook salmon heading to the ocean (smolt) have bright, silver sides, and parr marks recede to mostly above the lateral line

Just wanted to let you know we got the fish mount and are extremely pleased, it looks wonderful! Thank you both! I'll certainly be recommending you to anyone who needs a mount done and if I'm lucky I'll have another trophy to mount one of these days.

Thanks,

Hi Joe,

I recieved the bass/package today in the mail. I am extremely happy how it came out. Thanks again for the great work. Hopefully now i can catch a 6 pounder and have another one recreated. I will 100% have you create the next monster that i catch.

Hi Lowrey, I wanted to drop you a note and let you know that my King Salmon replica mount arrived safely today. It looks incredible. You folks really know what your're doing. Even the packaging showed that you have probably done thousands of mounts and have really become masters at all aspects required for a very happy customer. The mount itself, is so much more than I could have imagined from photos. Thanks again for everything!

Good afternoon Joe & Lowrey,

I wanted to drop you a note- the King Salmon replica mount fish you created for me is spectacular!! My dad absolutely loves it - it's that one fish story for which he has actual tangible proof now!

Again, many, many thanks!

I'll definitely be sending work your way whenever I have the opportunity!

Thank you again,

Dear Joe,

I would like to thank you for your professional work you have done for my clients' fish replicas. I have been thanked by them, for your work. With all the taxidermists in our area, I see a lot of fish mounts. Their work doesn’t even come close to yours. The first look life-like. I’ve yet to see work comparable to yours. Once again, I would like to thank you for making my business a success. I’m sure you’ll be seeing many more fish from myself and my clients.

Sincerely,

Arthur W. Novarro Jr. Registered Guide, Coho Lodge, Driftboat & Guide Service

Dear Joe and co-workers,

I just wanted to thank you for the magnificent reproductions of the fish replicas (fish mounts) you did for me recently. You are truly excelling in this art, and I am especially thankful for the very real eyes you provided for the replicas. I will be back with more fish for more beautiful fish mounts!

 Wish best wishes,

Dr. Hartmut Kramer-Mills Jamesburg, NJ

Dear Joe & Lowrey Pitruzzello,

I am writing to thank you for the wonderful job you did mounting my fish mounts. Rarely have I seen a taxidermist with your attention to authenticity and deail, fewer still with your artistic expertise when it comes to painting a fish replica in its true spawning colors. I will be sending you a male brown trout that I had mounted by another marine taxidermist several years ago. I was sorely disappointed in his ability to capture the vivid colors of a spawning brown. I’m sure you can restore this mount to its true majesty, as I’ve seen several brown trout mount fish replicas you’ve completed. Once again, thanks for a beautiful fish mount, and I will be recommending your services to my friends and any acquaintances that are looking for the best in taxidermist.

Sincerely,

Hermon Ashline Albany, NY

Lowery and Joe,

I received my replica king salmon fish mount yesterday.  I just wanted to say that is one of the best looking fish mounts that I have EVER seen!  The amount of detail you guys put into the fish replica is phenomonal!  I very much appreciate you doing such a great job on it!  I will be in touch soon as I am going to be doing a lot of fishing this summer and would very much like it for you guys to do any fish mounts I may have in the future.

Thank you again very much!

Nick Greenwood, IN

Hello, this is Naylor I just wanted to let you know that I love my king salmon replica fish mount. Thank you for all the work you put in it - pictures just didn't do justice for it. I also left you a review on google and I will be using you again in the future hopefully for peacock bass.

Naylor Brooks, Breaux Bridge, LA

Hi Lowery,

I was just thinking to myself how rare a great artist is. I feel very fortunate to have the mounts that your company have made for me

The work Joe does is nothing short of amazing. These mounts bring our experiences back to life, and all the emotions that come along with. Your company's work is a legacy, your hard work makes people happy. I appreciate you and your husbands and your crew's work. I’m looking forward to getting my next order in! I want to get everything I can while you Guys are still around ?

Happy Monday! Thank you again. Please share my appreciation with Joe and your team!

Dylan Towne

So worth it!!!

Michelle Anderson

Lowrey, Joe - The replica fish mount came yesterday - wow! it is spectacular - you guys did a great job. I already have it up in my ship in the spot I have been saving for it.

David Brandos, Hamilton, MT

We received our replica mount sockeye salmon and king salmon replica mount today and they are in great shape! The quality is outstanding and we are very happy with the results. Thank you.

Jim Hirdes

 

Joe, I do want to mention that I read some pretty bad reviews of other taxidermy studios on facebook sites concerning the scams people went through like I almost did.  I wanted to express my appreciation to you and your team for how you have handled me as a customer for my King Salmon replica mount and now my replica mount Striped Marlin.  I couldn't be happier with how you guys have treated me and handled my fish mounts. 

 

Thanks again and keep up the great work....
