Background on Bob Pond....
It's hard for some to understand how things were 30 years ago.
Some new entrants to this sport have only been fishing 5 years or less.
Bob Pond was a guy who marched to the beat of a different drummer.
An accomplished surfcaster and plugbuilder, with many trophy bass to his credit...
Yet as he caught more big bass he began to notice the decline of the sizes and numbers.....
Many of his peers did not see what he saw,,,and back 30 years ago, if someone called you a Conservationist, they might have as well called you a Communist..........the label was that bad....
He spoke out for the Future, and in his mind, it was something he could see clearly, that others could not.
When folks give me credit for threads like this, I would rather point to Bob Pond from MA,
Bob from NJ , and the many I have come to know, that believe the way he did....
Some background info for those who want to learn more about Bob Pond...
Bob Pond has passed...
