DNREC’s Division of Fish & Wildlife seeking great shots of Delaware anglers for annual photo contest

Entries to be accepted now through Oct. 31 

DOVER – The Oct. 31 deadline is approaching to enter your best image in the Delaware Division of Fish & Wildlife’s 2017 Delaware Fishing Photo Contest. The winning photo will be featured on the cover or inside of the 2018 Delaware Fishing Guide. The contest is open to all Delaware residents of any age, with a maximum of three entries per person.

New this year for ease of entry in the contest: photographers will be able to submit their photos digitally at Fish & Wildlife photo contest. Photographers without the means to upload their photos online may submit their entries as prints.

A judging panel comprised of DNREC staff will be looking for technically-suitable photos that best portray this year’s contest theme, “Catch a Memory,” by depicting anglers enjoying fishing in the great outdoors. To be eligible, photographs must have been taken in Delaware and depict persons involved in lawful fishing activities.

Complete contest rules and information, entry forms, and instructions for uploading entries can be found at Fish & Wildlife photo contest. For more information, please email Jennifer Childears or call 302-739-9910.
