Ed Bonn, served Texas as a state fisheries biologist, where he led efforts to stock striped bass (a marine species) in Texas lakes and to develop methods to cross stripers with native white bass. Both stripers and hybrids now provide recreation and food for large numbers of anglers. Bonn was also responsible for training many biologists and technicians who came to work for Texas Parks and Wildlife Department as the agency grew.

Texas Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame seeks to recognize and honor those who have made a lasting contribution to freshwater fishing in Texas and to foster awareness and appreciation of and participation in the sport of fishing.
