NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2020
My name is Cole Cruickshank and I own Timberland Taxidermy in Cameron, MO. I’ve been married about as long as I’ve been a taxidermist (21 years) and I’m blessed with two teenage children. I enjoy competition taxidermy, and rather than specialize in one thing, I love competing in all categories. I also really enjoy judging taxidermy shows, meeting new people, and teaching them what others were willing to teach me.
I mounted this particular fish for the Missouri Taxidermy Competition, where I was fortunate enough to win Best of Show with it. I took it to the Nebraska show as well, where it won the Taxidermy Today Woody Award. It was the first time I’d worked with a Peacock bass, and I’d love to have the opportunity to do another someday.
