Indiana conservation officers will host a public meeting with fishing tournament organizations to help them schedule events on Sylvan or Wawasee lakes next year.
The meeting will be Saturday, Nov. 3 at 10 a.m. at the Indiana Conservation Officers District 1 Headquarters located at 9822 North Turkey Creek Road along the southeast side of Lake Wawasee in Kosciusko County.
Indiana law requires a permit for a weekend fishing tournament of 15 boats or more, between April 1st and September 30 on Lake Wawasee and Sylvan Lake. The meeting will give those organizations interested, an opportunity to obtain a pre-approved date for their tournament. Any person representing an organization must be at least 18 years of age and a resident of Indiana. Applications to scheduled tournaments on either of these lakes received after this meeting date will be handled on a first come first serve basis.
