It took 24 hours on the lake and 13 fish to lead to the $50,000 prize.
On a foggy final day of the College Fishing Central Regional Championship IU's bass fishing team took home all the glory.
The regional took place at Kentucky Lake, near Murray, Kent. The area is known to be one of the top fisheries in the nation.
It consisted of three full days of fishing for large mouth, small mouth and spotted bass. Each day the teams are allowed to choose their six largest fish to be used in the weigh in.
IU's championship boat was comprised of senior Jesse Schultz and sophomore Dustin Vaal. At day three's end they totaled 29 lbs. 14 ounces from 13 fish.
They defeated runner-up Eastern Kentucky by just over four pounds. Other final competition included Ohio State, Southern Illinois and Murray State.
