Send the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation a photo of your catch, and see if you measure up to be a master angler.

The Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation has announced the launch of the new Saskatchewan Master Angler Program.

According to the SWF, the goal of this new catch-and-release program is to recognize the achievements of anglers fishing Saskatchewan waters. To qualify, a photo must be attached showing the length measurement from tip of the snout to tip of the pinched tail, and then the fish released in good condition.

Anglers who successfully submit an eligible catch will receive a certificate for the first fish of each of the 23 qualifying species. Additionally, anglers will receive recognition for reaching eligible catches in multiple species. SWF members are eligible for additional prizes and awards.
Catches are available to upload through a free mobile app, compatible with Apple and Android
devices. The Saskatchewan Master Angler app allows users to search by lake or by fish to see where certain species live in Saskatchewan's lakes. As well, app users are able to report invasive species and tagged fish that they find.
