Submission Guidelines

Fish Gods is a place to preserve fishing moments that mattered—from anyone, anywhere—recent or long ago, so they are not lost. Some moments are big, some are quiet, but all of them carry something real. That is what belongs here.

What this is

This is not a feed, and it is not built for volume. It is an archive. Moments are not judged by size alone, but by what they meant. A first fish, a fish of a lifetime, something unexpected, or something that stayed with you long after it happened—these are the moments that tend to find their place here.

Submitting your moment

All fields in the submission form should be completed as accurately as possible. If fields are left blank or contain incorrect information, your submission may not be received or processed properly.

What happens when you submit

Every submission is received with care. Some moments are shared publicly. Others may be shared later.

What may be shared

Selected moments may appear within the archive, on the site, or in public features. Sharing is always done with respect for the moment and the person behind it.

Your content and ownership

You always retain ownership of your photo, video, or story. By submitting your moment, you grant Fish Gods a non-exclusive, worldwide permission to preserve, publish, and share it across the archive and its related platforms, always with respect to the moment and its origin.

Protecting your moment

Fish Gods exists to preserve moments honestly. Your submission will not be altered in a way that changes what actually happened. The goal is to protect the integrity of the moment, not to reshape it.

AI and authenticity

Submissions must reflect something real. Basic edits such as lighting or clarity are fine, but moments that are generated, fabricated, or altered beyond truth do not belong here.

Submitting Artwork

If you are submitting original artwork inspired by a fishing moment, please read the following. Artwork should be connected to a real moment, feeling, or experience. It may be stylized or interpreted, but it should carry something genuine behind it.

Final note

Fish Gods exists to preserve the memory, share it for all to see, and ensure it is never forgotten.
