As tournament directors put together their schedules for 2026, I’m curious to see if any have the will to at least partially limit the use of forward-facing sonar (FFS).
If you’re geeked up about the ice fishing season, you’ll want to be at ClearH20 Tackle Dec. 12-13.
When you’ve spent all day catching fish, you don’t want to spend all night cleaning ‘em. This is why Rapala is constantly innovating and improving its lineup of fillet tools.

Largemouth bass anglers who are concerned that walleyes stocked into northeast Indiana lakes could be damaging bass fishing need not worry.
Data obtained by DNR biologists from bass tournaments at four lakes where walleyes are routinely stocked indicate there is little evidence to suggest bass fishing has been harmed.
At Crooked Lake and Lake George in Steuben County, two of the areas best walleye lakes, numbers of 14-inch and larger bass caught by tournament anglers increased over the past 10 years.

Now that Michigan has restricted anglers to keeping one muskie per year and has implemented a harvest tag system, will Indiana muskie anglers face a similar change?
Not likelyat least for now.
Current rules allow Indiana-licensed anglers to take one muskie per day in Indiana. There are no limits in Indiana on the number of muskies an Indiana-licensed angler can take per year.
The only tags required in Indiana for harvest pertain to deer and turkey huntingnot fishing.
