My name is Albert Talafuse and I am the CEO/ Founder of Pond Hopper Nation. Over the last 9 years I have perfected a children's/family fishing event that brings the community closer together, gives an economic boost to businesses in that community, and draws in people from a 2–4-hour radius.  At these events we set up Fishing, Boating, and Conservation activities for the participants along with fishing. Children ages 4-17 who attend will receive a fishing rod to keep. The goal for the event is to plant a seed within the community to make it an annual event. 

2026
In 2026, we are looking to make several new partnerships with cities to host our events, improve your local fishing events, or just help you market your city for a year. The overall goal is to get more heads in beds, make an economic impact, and make a positive impact in your community.

2026
If you are interested in this event, please reach out as soon as possible. Our schedule usually fills up pretty fast. We are scheduling for 2026.
