Hi vbfishguide, and welcome to Project Noah! Fishing trophy photographs are not appropriate for Project Noah. From out FAQ page:
"Please also refrain from posting spottings of people; we appreciate that on occasions you may have a wildlife spotting that includes a person in the photograph - in this instance please crop your photograph so that the animal or other organism remains the focus of the image.
As we are a community of wildlife lovers, we request that you do not post any images that may cause offense to other users, such as hunting or fishing trophy photographs. We also ask that you do not add dead organisms except those taken as food by living organisms in their natural habitat."
We kindly ask you to replace this photograph by one of he fish only, or crop it so that only the fish is seen. Thank you in advance.
