About the Poster

This oversized wall poster is the state-of-the-art in trout identification and appreciation. Thirty-four types of magnificent trout by master-illustrator Joseph R. Tomelleri appear in relative scale—from the tiny golden trout to the massive steelhead. Each fish is represented at 40% of average size, all depicted with breathtaking accuracy. It’s the perfect marriage of art and information design—a celebration of the diversity of our most beautiful gamefish.
