🙏 It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our honored Life Member, Stanley John Bochnowski.

Stan was an integral part of our organization for many years, making countless contributions and leaving a lasting legacy. One of his most significant contributions to our organization was serving as the driving force behind securing the location and property that we proudly call home today.

Last night we had the great opportunity to sit down with Allie Johnson from the University of Illinois and the Illinois-Indiana Sea Grant to talk about urban fishing participation.

We would like to thank the small focus group for coming out and participating. We’d also like to thank Allie and her team for all the hard work and listening to us in hopes to making a positive impact on our local fishing community!!!

Year 3 has begun!!

We had great turnout for our East Chicago Net Pen Project prep meeting yesterday afternoon. We made quick work adding the netting to the cages. We also went over procedures for feeding and caring for the fish as well as the reporting process.

🙏 We would like to thank all the volunteers that came out yesterday and also everyone that signed up to help feed the fish when the come.

Plan is to drop the Net Pens in the water on Monday 4/20. We will be meeting at the club at 8:30am to load the pens up and head to the marina.
