Our Story

Welcome to The Corner Landing, your premier lakeside destination situated between the pristine waters of Lake James and Jimmerson Lake in scenic Steuben County. Our story is one of family heritage and a lifelong love affair with Indiana's waterways.

Chuck and Jo Anne Bowers bought The Corner Landing, as a bait and tackle shop, in 1997. It has been a cherished part of the Angola lakes community for years, offering families a haven for relaxation and adventure. In 2008, their son Kirk Bowers joined as Manager. In 2013, the revamped Corner Landing debuted with updated inventory, while still catering to anglers with bait and tackle offerings. Kirk is driven by a deep-seated passion for lake living instilled in him during his upbringing on the waters in South Bend area.
