Chokusetsu-ho Gyotaku print of Black Crappie (Pomoxis nigromaculatus)

Gyotaku, or Japanese fish printing, was originally used to record and commemorate a fisherman’s catch.
Chokusetsu-ho, or the direct style, is the most similar to the original methodology.

Not only can this method result in a fine art print or a pleasing illustration, but can also be used for fish identification and record keeping.
