Tito Wilson — Catch Him if You Can!

Tito Wilson, a local fishing legend from Ward 1, is a retired senior citizen who likes to spend his time fishing at the fishing pier. He wakes up early in the morning to go fishing and if you are one of the first few people to have a conversation with him he will give you a fish he caught. This tradition has turned into a game in the Ralston fishing community: a friendly competition to see who can get to Mr. Wilson first. He has picked up on this game and purposefully changes the time he goes to the pier to make it more of a challenge. Mr. Wilson’s conversations often contain lots of wisdom and life stories, especially about his service in Vietnam. He is very accepting of people and is willing to teach anyone how to fish, as he believes it’s the most relaxing and rewarding hobby someone can have. Mr. Wilson almost always participates in the local fishing contests, and his dominance in the contests has led to fellow Vermont fishers to travel to Ralston to test their mettle
