Services & Process

Given Roscoe's identity as a fly fishing destination, Shewolf Taxidermy is well positioned to handle trout and other freshwater fish mounts, including brook trout, brown trout, and rainbow trout. Beyond fish, the western Catskills produce solid whitetail deer harvests, making deer shoulder mounts a likely staple of the shop's workload. Wild turkey mounts are another common request in this region, often done as full strut displays or fan and beard combinations. Small mammal and bird mounts for hunters rounding out their trophy collections also fit naturally into what this type of Catskill studio handles.

Service Area

Shewolf Taxidermy is located in Roscoe, NY, serving hunters and anglers throughout Sullivan County and the surrounding western Catskills region. Customers from Liberty, Livingston Manor, and communities along Route 17 are within reasonable driving distance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you mount a trout caught on the Beaverkill River?
Yes, trout mounts are a natural specialty for any taxidermist in the Roscoe area. Whether you want a skin mount or a reproduction, bring the fish in on ice as soon as possible after your catch to preserve the colors.
What is the best way to preserve a trout for mounting?
Keep the fish wet and cool immediately, avoiding dry ice or freezer burn if possible. Wrap it carefully in a damp cloth, then plastic wrap, and get it to the taxidermist or freezer quickly to lock in the colors.
Do you handle wild turkey mounts?
Wild turkey mounts are a common request in the Catskills region, especially full strut displays or fan and beard combinations. Contact the shop to discuss which style works best for your bird.
How should I care for a finished fish mount at home?
Keep the mount out of direct sunlight and away from humidity to prevent fading and warping. Dust gently with a soft brush and avoid using chemical cleaners on the finish.
What is the turnaround time for a deer mount in this area?
Turnaround for deer shoulder mounts typically runs six months to a year at most studios, with longer waits possible if the fall drop-off season is busy. Ask for an estimated timeline at drop-off so you know what to expect.
Is Shewolf Taxidermy open year round?
Hours and availability can vary for smaller studios, so it's best to call ahead before making a trip. Taxidermists in seasonal hunting and fishing regions sometimes have limited hours outside of peak seasons.
