Illinois Chapter of the

AMERICAN FISHERIES SOCIETY

As per our bylaws, the Chapter meets once each year to celebrate fisheries in Illinois by presenting our research, management, and education activities.  The meeting is very similar in format to the annual national American Fisheries Society conference, with a set of platform and poster presentations, a business meeting, a raffle, and a banquet.
