(Undated) — Lake Mille Lacs has landed a major bass fishing tournament next year, even as officials try to restore the lake’s walleye population. Mille Lacs will host the 2016 Toyota Bassmaster Angler of the Year tournament. Bruce Akin with the Bass Anglers Sportsman Society applauds the D-N-R for its efforts to accommodate competitive bass fishing. The agency eased catch-and-release regulations for bass on Mille Lacs Lake to try to attract a tournament.
