Great news from Academy Sports & Outdoors! Academy is now sponsoring our photo contest with $100 gift certificates each month.

Check back often. We will be adding more great prizes soon!

At the end of the 12-month period we will award a grand prize winner (running May 2007 through April 2008). The grand prize winner gets an additional $500 gift certificate from Academy.

To submit a photo for consideration, email general_mail@texasfishingforum.com. Photos must be a minimum of 750 pixels wide, 650 pixels tall and in .jpg format. They need to be clear and in focus. Grainy photos will generally not be chosen.

Be creative and use bright colors. Keep in mind that white can be a tough color to shoot. Professional photographers will often keep a red shirt available in case an opportunity arises and the subject is wearing washed out colors. A yellow or orange light rain slicker can also really spice up a shot.

Fish photos are often the winners, but a great shot that says, “Texas Fishing,” is what we are looking for.

Good luck to all!

And a big TFF thank you to Academy Sports & Outdoors for sponsoring the photo contest!

To make pics smaller, you have to use software to resize them. Use a free program like ifran view or the GIMP, or if you already have a gfx manipulation program installed, like photoshop, use that.
