Send FWP the best fishing photo and art

From Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks

Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks announced the opening of the annual fishing regulation photo and kids’ art contest.

Winners will see their work on the front and back covers of the 2022 fishing regulation booklets.

All submitted photos will be considered for the contest, but the department will give special consideration to photos that highlight the diversity of people and fishing opportunities that Montana has to offer.

Photo contest:

• Photo must be vertical — portrait — mode, or suitable for tight vertical cropping to fit the available space on the regs cover.

• Photo must be a minimum resolution and size of 6 inches tall at 300 pixels-per-inch.

• FWP will feature the submitter’s name on the front cover as credit. People should specify how they would like to be credited.

• People should include a short description of the photo, so FWP can provide some caption information.

• Ownership of the photo is retained by the photographer, who may use his or her image for other purposes.

• People should not send photos of fish that have been mounted.

• The photo must be taken in Montana.

Art contest

• Children 12 and younger are invited to submit a colored drawing of a fish that lives in Montana.

People should send in their best photo and drawing as soon as possible, emailing to http://[email protected] .

The deadline is Oct. 15.

Winners will receive their photo on the cover, a subscription to Montana Outdoors Magazine and a Montana Outdoors T-shirt.
