Just as BobPop envisioned, the great folks at Project Healing Waters have something really special in the works.
Starting May 11, be hosting an online auction featuring the personal fly fishing collection of Bob Popovics, generously donated by the Popovics family in support of Project Healing Waters.
This collection includes engraved saltwater reels, some of his personally tied flies, and gear that reflects a lifetime of passion for the water. Every bid placed helps support Veterans as they find connection, purpose, and healing through the outdoors.
Bob was a Marine Corps Veteran who discovered fly tying after returning home, a pursuit that brought him peace and direction. Through this auction, his legacy continues in a powerful way, helping others walk a similar path forward.
The auction runs May 11-16. We’ll be sharing the link to the Auction on the 11th, keep an eye out and consider getting involved!
