INDIANA – In spring, anglers return to fishing on Indiana’s lakes and rivers. Often, that includes catching and using live bait.
Remember to recycle all unused bait fish in the trash, as invasive carp could lurk in your bait bucket. Improperly disposing of unused bait fish in a lake or stream could allow invasive species like silver carp to spread in Indiana waters.
Please learn more about how you can help fight against invasive carp on this Department of Natural Resources website.
