Kids 'n Fishing Photo Contest
In celebration of National Fishing Week
- Sponsored by:

Picture the excitement!
It certainly isn't hard to "picture it," kids 'n fishing that is — smiles, laughs, looks of anticipation and excitement. So, join in on the fun, catch the excitement of your child on film while fishing and enter his or her picture in the annual Kids 'n Fishing Photo Contest sponsored by Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries, Green Top Sporting Goods, and Shakespeare Tackle Company… celebrate National Fishing Week!
The winning pictures are those that best capture the theme "kids enjoying fishing." Children in the first through third place photographs of each category will receive a variety of fishing-related prizes. There is no need to be a professional photographer. Any snapshot will do.
