For more information and how to identify fish please visit Fishing Species & Identification<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Send a picture with the location information and date of your catch to\u00a0fishid@dnr.IN.gov<\/a>, and a biologist will respond to you with an identification. Not only do you receive an identification, DNR biologists benefit by gaining new information on the distribution of some of our less common species.<\/p>\n
