Clear Lake, IA - If you're looking for some quick cash, how about going fishing? So it's not that quick but there is a good chunk of change to be caught.

The Iowa DNR has tagged and released this year's $1,000 fish. The 22 inch Walleye has a small yellow tag near its dorsal fin.  Dan Krauth at The Crazy Minnow Company said there are still 20 $100 fish in Clear Lake as well. He admitted it might be a bit tough to find the $1,000 winner among the thousands of fish in Clear Lake.

"There are obviously tens of thousands of Walleyes in the lake. So it's really impossible to say what the odds of catching the $1,000 fish," said Krauth.

If you find a fish with a yellow tag you can claim your prize at The Crazy Minnow Company. Last year the $1,000 Walleye was caught within a month after it was released.
