DAYTONA BEACH - The infield of Daytona International Speedway isn't exactly the Great Outdoors, but the focus here will turn to fishing and the search for largemouth bass for a few hours Friday morning.The infield might not be a back-to-nature scene, yet the relationship between racing and fishing is a natural.
The 29-acre Lake Lloyd in the infield has been a part of Daytona 500 lore for many years."Fishing and racing are as American as you can get," said Darrell Gwynn, whose foundation uses the annual Hot Rods and Reels Fishing Tournament here as a major fund-raiser. "Most everyone in America has a car and fishing pole in their garage. We don't have any trouble getting guys to fish."
