Welcome to King Sailfish Mounts.

At King Sailfish, we are very pleased to introduce a unique process for the mounting of gamefish. Often referred to as a "Release Mount", your trophy can be hand-crafted according to the size and coloration of your once-in-a-lifetime catch--to keep that memory alive for years to come!

Release Mounts offer an attractive alternative to traditional skin mounts. Exploding with vibrance, each mount is lightweight and easy to install. Available in a wide range of sizes and striking action poses, savvy anglers choose to let their fish go unharmed, and still commemorate their catch with a Release Mount.



King Sailfish also offers a full line of tournament trophies. Available in a variety of sizes, our handsome awards are based on miniature versions of trophy gamefish. Each piece is individually hand-crafted and painted by hand. Mounted on a beautiful mahogany base, and adorned with your tournament logo, a sportsman’s most memorable offshore achievements can be attractively displayed as a centerpiece in one’s home or office.

Over the years decorating your home, office, restaurant, poolside wall or den with a beautiful fish replica mount has become the ultimate in creating a soothing and relaxing atmosphere. Fish taxidermy has come a long way from the days when your fish reproduction mount would flake away and/or fade within a few years of hanging it on your wall.
Today’s eco friendly (or green as they say) fiberglass fish mounts give us the best of both worlds. You have a beautiful, durable and lightweight fish trophy to proudly display, and the ability to say “I returned him to the sea to fight another day.”

With a release mount from King Sail Fish Mounts you will be doing your part in assuring that for years to come, our children and children’s children will have the opportunity to feel the excitement of catching a trophy fish of their own.It's just a key stroke or phone call away. Personalize your catch with a custom engraved plaque. Order yours today and you will soon enjoy the pleasure of owning a King Sailfish Mount.http://kingsailfishmounts.com/

No Need To Kill For A Fish Mount

This captain was obviously not "UP" on the latest information. It is no longer necessary for a trophy fish to be taken from the ocean for mounting purposes. There is no longer any need for the actual fish......even the mount's teeth can be created from molds using dental acrylics.

The Marine Taxidermy Industry once relied almost exclusively on freshly caught fish for producing trophy mounts. And the charter fleet boated thousands of gamefish every year. The increasing number of fish being taken out of the water resulted in a situation where sailfish and other prized species were becoming more and more difficult to catch.

However, due to an increased awareness brought about by The Billfish Foundation, The International Game Fish Association, and others, the majority of all trophy game fish are now being released alive for mounting purposes. Release mounts produced from composite materials are now the choice of both novice and master anglers alike. The release mount segment is the fastest growing part of the marine taxidermy industry. And Fort Lauderdale is once again considered by many to be the Sailfishing Capital of the US.
