DescriptionA fisherman holds up a large fish in his fishing net that he caught in the Pecos River in New Mexico. He is wearing waders and standing in the middle of the river. He holds the net toward the camera. There are bare trees on the opposite bank of the river.
A typed caption on the back of the photograph reads, "A proud angler displays the fine trout he's just hooked on the Pecos River in northern New Mexico. The state has more than 2,000 miles of excellent trout streams, and a number of perch and bass lakes."
