New West Virginia Sport Fish Poster Available

            SOUTH CHARLESTON, W.Va. – A new West Virginia Sport Fish Identification Poster is now available either as a printed poster or online at the Division of Natural Resources website, according to Frank Jezioro, director of the West Virginia DNR. The poster, featuring paintings of game fish found in the Mountain State, was produced by the DNR Wildlife Resources Section.   

           “We’ve published this poster in response to many outdoor enthusiasts who have been asking for something like this for a while,” said Jezioro. “The fish illustrations have been printed on the back of our fishing regulations for years, but the images on this poster are much larger and clearer. I’m told many people who have received the posters have framed them and hung them on their office or recreation room walls.”

            The color poster features warmwater and coldwater fish species.  Fish enthusiasts can go to the DNR website and print the poster in either letter size or 11-by- 17-inch sizes. To print a copy, go to www.wvdnr.gov and click on “Sport Fish Identification Poster” under the Fishing heading.
