Mitchell Prokasy, 11, of Mandeville, with a 39-inch cobia caught 8 miles out of Caminada Pass in Grand Isle.

The Sportsman is looking for photos, videos and reports from anglers and hunters across the state.

We value your input and want to see what you’re doing — and how you’re doing it. Here’s how to become part of our Sportsman community … it’s easy.

SPORTSMAN SCRAPBOOK

This buck was taken on the opening weekend of youth season by Parks Brock, 9, in Forrest County, Miss.

We are  looking for Louisiana sportsmen and women who love to hunt and/or fish, and have pictures doing what they love! If you have good pictures — we want to see them.

We will feature the best pictures we get each month on our website. And that’s not all … we’ll choose several photos each month to appear in Louisiana Sportsman magazine’s scrapbook section!

Just email your best pictures in the largest file size you have available, with a description of who, what and where, to: images@louisianasportsman.com

SPORTSMAN TIPS AND TRIPS

Joseph Wilson, 9, killed three ducks with one shot during the 2017-18 youth weekend in Gueydan.

But that’s not all — we are also expanding our reader-generated news coverage because we value your input and want to see what you’re up to in the swamps and bayous of the Sportsman’s Paradise.

It’s never been easier to have your trip featured in the Sportsman: Just submit your  photo or photos and a detailed fishing/hunting report  to: images@louisianasportsman.com.

Send us a description of your trip and be sure to include where, when, how, what bait or lures were used and the conditions you experienced.

Not only will we publish the best reports we receive on our website, but we will feature our editor’s top pics on the front page of the site, and in social media posts as well as the magazine. Be sure to include your name and your social media handles so we can tag you.
