He spent one year as assistant property manager at GreeneSyllivan State Forest, Southwest Indiana, and landed a job as a fisheries technician with the lowa Conservation Commission. He stayed in lowa for five months, returning to Indiana in 1975, to accept a district fisheries biologist position at Salamonie Reservoir and Tri-Lakes in 1976 During the last five years Pearson has written and conducted over 25 special projects, each of which addresses a specific fisheries problem. His projects included work on bass exploitation, supplemental bass stockings, trout movements and harvest, reintroduction of cisco, food habits studies, identification of critical northern pike spawning areas and development of a fisheries management course for area youth. He has also made standard lake surveys and related management activities. Pearson does his work with consistently high quality and professional caliber and has been quick to spot opportunities even where there appeared to be none. A notable example is when he transformed a chronic winterkill pond at the Tri-County Fish and Wildlife Area, North Webster, into a productive northern pike rearing unit. Last year, that effort produced nearly 3,200 eight inch pike — more than the entire state hatchery system in some years. Ed Hanson, director of Tri-Lake Fisheries, Columbia City, stated “Our recipient’s energetic efforts toward resource management have not been at the expense of a neglected public. He

clearly recognizes the importance of good public rapport and has worked very hard to keep fishermen well informed. These activities have included a w’eekly northeast Indiana fishing newsletters that is carried by 20 newspapers during the summer. In addition, several widedistribution publications serving Indiana and the midwest also run his informative articles regularly. In 1979 he constructed a backdrop, took our fisheries handouts, a few mounted fish and his enthusiasm to the Fort Wayne Sport. Vacation and Boat Show to spread the word about Indiana fishing. He, along with Al Van Hoey, captured first place among the many exhibitors. The same exhibit has since been used as our Division display at the State Fair as well as at fishing clinics from Gary to Terre Haute. “Perhaps his greatest strength lies in his scientific ability and his knack for converting it into results that benefit fishermen. He is truly “people oriented.’ His hunger for hidden answers and better ideas won’t allow him to sit back and watch — he’s a doer. “Each year he becomes more valuable to our team as he strives to gain a better understanding of fish, fishing and fishermen. Some people count time wiUi hours. But as one observer aptly put it, ‘Jed Pearson don’t count time — he makes time count.’
