We’ve chosen the winners for this year’s photo contest.
Well over 1,500 photos were submitted to our photo contest this year. Almost all of them were great shots. After much hand-wringing and consideration, we chose 15 finalists, and asked you to choose your favorites.

You can see all of the images that were submitted on the TU Facebook page, or look for them in future issues of Trout magazine, on TU.org or elsewhere that TU publishes images. We look forward to utilizing as many of these wonderful photographs as possible, they’re a great reminder of the many reasons we fight for cold, clean water and the places we love to fish.
Congratulations to all of the winners and thanks to everyone who submitted photos or voted for the winners. Thanks also to our generous prize sponsors: R.L. Winston Rod Company, Tenkara USA, Costa Sunglasses and the Montana Fly Company. We’ll be looking forward to next year’s contest!

Hi guys, I am elated and surprised that I took first place in you scenic photos contest. I have not been contacted officially by TU as of yet. I understand that I will win a Tenkara Rod from Tenkara USA. My partner Tillie and I are a real fan’s of Tenkara USA and already have two of there rods. Can I choose which model rod I receive as my prize? Will my photo be featured in your calendar for 2013? Do you need a larger resolution file?
