I caught 2 monster bass in my pond. One was exactly 6 pounds the other 5 pounds 6 ounces. Should i get a double mount or what?
 
No. For three reasons

1. Ponds can produce big bass, but not usually large numbers of them. If you take those fish out of there you could be damaging the fish population.

2. You can get a reproduction made. Take pictures and measurement of your fish then ask the taxidermist to make a reproduction. These look great and last longer.

3. If you keep those fish, neither you or anybody else will ever get te chance to get that big fish again. Put em back, and let em grow bigger.
 
Not really trying to take anything away from you but those really aren't "monsters". they are good sized bass, but not worthy of a wall.
 
they're not Extremely Big, People catch these every day. I would put em back in your pond and enjoy that they are there. Maybe, you'll catch them again and they'll be bigger.

My dad caught a 10 pound some ounce Bass, we ended up eating it.
