[NM Game and Fish Editor's Note: Anglers have taken to our new iFish form like a fish to water (sorry for the pun)! In fact, your response has gone far beyond anything we could have imagined. We're continually impressed by the quantity and quality of the photos you send us every week. However, while we'd love to be able to run every photo we receive, technical limitations keep us from being able to do so effectively.
That doesn't mean your submissions are being ignored, though. Far from it, in fact. The Department has started a Weekly Wall of Fame, where every photo that we receive will be published. You'll be able to find the link to each week's Wall of Fame, as well as the Weekly Fishing and Stocking Report and the iFish form, on the Department's website. You can also view this week's Wall of Fame by clicking here. Feel free to share the link with your friends and family – because what fishing trip would be complete without a little bragging?]
