Fishing Goals for 2016

[mic]

Want to fish the driftless region of Wisconsin... anyone want to go?

Learn how to fish out of my new Kayak (which just came in; going to get it this weekend).

I had a great 2015 and looking forward to 2016.

I'm planning to play with Tenkara.

I'm going to chase a lot of different species.

I'm hoping to fish with a lot of friends and family and hopefully few OA members that I haven't met in person yet.

I'm planning to fish the Bass Cat Owners Invitational in April on Bull Shoals.

I'm planning on driving down to fish the White Bass run on the Sabine River with my Dad.

I'm hoping to fish the marshes of southern Louisiana in the fall for Redfish and whatever else I can fool. 

I have a lot of other irons in the fire, but I still hope to make 80 fishing trips. I've got to get after it though. I'm behind already. 

 

Ham... I liked to join you sometime if we can ever meet in the middle.  Good luck.

Hey mic,

I would love to do so. I have no plans on going anywhere and I'm going to fish as long as I am able.  If we don't manage to make it happen this year, we can keep trying. The years seem to fly by and I struggle to stay on task at times. The rest of my life gets in the way of my fishing a lot.

Then again... you are in some pretty sweet water down there in Mountain Home.  Maybe I should just come to your place, LOL.  Yea, my winter has revolved around eight grade Girls Pom/Dance.  Hell, I just went to high school orientation with her two nights ago.  Drivers ed in a year.  Where does it all go.

No one believes me when I didn't move here for the fishing. I moved here to get away from the almost year round heat and humidity of Louisiana. I knew there was fishing here and I would never move somewhere where the fishing opportunities were really limited, but still.

you are correct though, lots and lots of good places to fish close to Mtn Home. The next couple of months might be less than ideal, but so it goes.

I want to finish top ten in our company's annual bass tournament. It's on Table Rock this year, so I am hopeful! We have 260-300 boats each year, so top ten is a lofty goal.

When is it? I want to be somewhere else .

Understand this all too well. Just did it with mine. She is a 3 sport kid, plus coached FB again with her brother. She hasn't even had time to break in her learner's permit yet.

April 30th out of Kimberling Ciy

My goal is to go fly fishing more than two times in 2016. That is my goal every year, but life has a way of messing up the best laid plans...
