The Indiana DNR Division of Fish & Wildlife plans to stock nearly 63,000 rainbow and brown trout across the state this spring in preparation for inland trout fishing season, which, for inland streams, opens Saturday, April 27.
Twelve teams showed up for Michiana Singles OPEN series inaugural at Pine and Stone lakes in LaPorte last weekend.
Skeet Reese, who has compiled 11 Tour Level victories, 82 top 10 finishes, a Bassmaster Angler of the Year crown in 2007 and a Bassmaster Classic title in 2009, is building a new company, Reese Fishing, which will offer products that will provide self-designed products to fishing consumers.

Fishing in the area near the new sea lamprey barrier that was completed earlier this year on Trail Creek in Michigan City has been prohibited by the DNR by emergency rule.
The purpose is to protect migrating trout and salmon.
The rule, which took effect last week, prohibits the taking or possession of fish within 100 feet upstream of the barrier and from the barrier downstream to the Pottawatomie Country Club Golf Course property line, which is located adjacent to Springland Avenue in Michigan City.

After the fall turnover, many anglers focus on deep structure, said veteran walleye guide Mike Christensen. And in the right lakes, its hard to beat rigging a large redtail chub or sucker minnow out deep. But in a lot of situations, the weed bite is better.
Such is the case on Christensens home waters of mighty Mille Lacs Lake, where he runs ice and open-water walleye adventures out of Hunter Winfields Resort. Though the central Minnesota walleye factory offers plenty of structure options offshore, the perimeters of its fertile weedbeds are often overlooked. The same scenario arises in many natural lakes with an abundance of shoreline vegetation. Not only are the weedbeds full of walleye, but with most anglers mining off-shore areas, you can have them to yourself.
