Free 2012 fishing calendar

THE NSW Department of Primary Industries (NSW DPI) has showcased the state's top fishing photographs in the 2012 NSW Recreational Fishing Calendar.

The calendars are now available for free in print and online.

"Fishing remains a popular past time, with more than one million recreational fishers getting out and about every year to take part," said NSW DPI Fisheries Manager, Sarah Boyd.

"This calendar has been produced through the support of the NSW Recreational Fishing Trusts and is being made available for free for all to enjoy.

"We've had hundreds of entries for the calendar, and are really pleased with the quality of entries.

"The photos keep getting better each year and the printed calendars disappear very quickly so I recommend if you want one to get in early."
