What's New?
The Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Fish of the Year program (FOTY), recognizes anglers who have caught the longest fish of each species DNR tracks in that year.
When it comes to knowledge about the historical timeline of fishing lures and tackle, Dan Basore is in a class by himself.

VanDam’s Favorite Lure for Florida
- Details
By Al McGuckin
Kevin VanDam
It was a 19-hour drive in his Toyota Tundra from Kalamazoo to the highly familiar waters of Florida’s Kissimmee Chain, but Kevin VanDam is feeling very much at home this week as he takes a tiny break from his pro tournament retirement to sit in second place after Day 2 of the MLF General Tire Heavy Hitters event, a special stand-alone event he qualified for last season.
“I’ve probably competed in about 30 events in Florida throughout my pro career. I’ve always enjoyed this state because the lakes are expansive and full of so much vegetation,” says VanDam.
He actually notched one of his 29 mind-boggling career victories on Kissimmee’s Lake Toho in March of 2008 by ripping a Red Eye Shad from the submerged vegetation he treasures, and the submerged salad was certainly in play during Sunday’s opening round of competition when a Strike King Thunder Cricket vibrating jig helped him land 13 bass totaling 40 pounds to sit second behind Jordan Lee.
Hey Walleye Anglers! Don’t Miss This Chance to Win a Prize

I know you guys are catching walleye. So why aren’t you entering them in the Midwest Walleye Challenge?
As of Thursday, only 24 Hoosiers had entered and logged 146 fish from 32 Indiana bodies of water. Oddly enough, southern Indiana – mostly Brookville Reservoir - has dominated the Hoosier entries.
However, some entries have come from Clear and Crooked lakes in Steuben County. Strangely, none have been entered from the St. Joseph River, Maxinkuckee or Winona lakes where walleyes are frequently stocked.
