Meet Board Member, Marty Jones
Marty Jones is new, this past year, to the MAPS Board but not new to Mullett Lake or fishing. Marty was introduced to Mullett Lake through his spouse’s family firmly ensconced in Mullett Lake Village since the turn of the last century.
As the Chairman of the MAPS Fishing Committee, you would expect an avid fisherman and you would be correct. An average day finds Marty on the Lake at sun up, live bait fishing for pike and evenings, if they’re biting, trolling for steelhead and walleye using a lead core line. He works on golf in between to round out his day!
Marty is retired and he moved to his Mullett Lake Village home permanently this year. He has an interesting background and two very different careers. Marty practiced dentistry for eight years and then decided to try his hand at laboratory equipment sales to Biotech companies (25 years) and then returned to dentistry for five years, prior to retirement.
His educational background gives him a solid and knowledgeable resource for our MAPS Board and mission. His undergraduate degree is in Zoology with a heavy
emphasis on Freshwater Biology. Marty attended Ohio State’s F.T. Stone Laboratory on Lake Erie’s Gibraltar Island, studying Ichthyology, Fish Ecology, Limnology and Fishery Science. Stone Lab is the oldest freshwater biological field station in the country.
When asked what led him to MAPS, he replied, “I always read the MAPS newsletter, attended yearly meetings and admired the goals of the organization.” His closing statement, and as chair of the Fishing Committee, says it all, “I love to fish.”
