Had a terrible night on the water last night. The wind came up out of know where, had troller problems, and only shot a pathetic 10 fish. BUT, I put the hurtin on this koi. I saw it and couldnt believe wat i was seeing, so i shot and MISSED, then my buddy flung one at it while it was darting away. So, im pissed, and as im pushin off of a sandbar, i turn around and that suckers sittin right at the edge of the lights. I drill him, and my friend puts a second arrow in him just to make sure it didnt flop off.
We've seen a few other kois, but this is the first one we've ever shot. Think he shoulda gone on the wall?

Yeah if you find the right replica taxidermist they can do good work. Be ready to spend $8 to $10 per inch of fish for it tho. Thats pretty standard I guess. They will need length and girth along with a possible estimated weight and a good photo. The weight thing may be the issue
 
Nice fish. Would definitely mount him. Would like to shot one myself.
