Photo contest open for 2018 fishing reg booklets

The Alaska Department of Fish and Game has begun a photo contest for the 2018 fishing regulations summary booklet.

Three cover photos will be chosen for the booklets, including one from the Southcentral region. Cover photos are required to show someone under 18 participating in sport fishing or sport fishing activities. Entries showing violation of regulations or unsafe or unethical actions will be disqualified.

Photos showing adults, or people engaged in personal use fishing, such as dipnetting, may be considered for the inside pages of the booklets.
