ww2farmer reply :

Same as always.... Don't drown, don't break anything expensive, and get my kids out as much as I can. The fishing takes care of itself.

FishinFool22 reply :

Just being out on the lake. Anything else is a plus

Oregon Native reply :

Only one more surgery....and more and more days on water.

Fish Murderer 71 reply :

Fish more, work less. Win more tournaments, stop losing so many so many lures. And understand the bass in the lakes I fish better.

Spotswood reply :

For this year?

We measure our fish by length rather than weight, but here goes.

20"+ smallmouth bass

18"+ largemouth bass (largies are rare up here)

24"+ walleye

My first crappie and white bass.

Hopefully I'll stay away from the northern pike!

macmichael reply :

If you want a great chance at a 7+ lb large mouth try leech lake, especially since you like to jig, it is pretty much jigs and frogs...

flyingmonkie reply :

1) Catch a bass every month (December always gets me... I have 9 months to prepare!)

2) Successfully use my electronics to find fish and get away from the bank.

3) Get out more often!

Thanks man I have always wanted to make a trip up to Leech, wish it was a few hours closer. I know a few guys up in that area that nail some giants on jigs and chucking frogs in the wild rice every year.

BassThumbAddict reply :

Fish more. Learn more. Catch more.

Pz3 reply :

1. Fill freezer with meat (bass, crappie, catfish)

2. Get boat

3. Start tournament fishing.

Fishes in trees reply :

I'm going to focus a little more on finesse this year. Brewer sliders & Ned rigs (research the In-fisherman web site for more info on Ned rigs) I'm going to try to hone my deductive skills this year, so that I spend more time fishing and less time searching.

I've got a decent frog rig, but I didn't use it much last year. This year I am going to buy a better set of frogs and spend a little more time fishing in the slop (mid summer goal.)

Fishing deeper grass beds is a weakness of mine. I'd like to get better at fishing the deeper grass beds.

Now that's what it is all about.

Preytorien reply :

My goal is to be productive with jigs more this year than ever. I've got a box full of Siebert jigs and RageTails....so i'm set!

I feel that I've done an astute job of learning the craft of frogging. I love fishing slop and heavy cover, I'm not an open-water guy. So I'd like to focus on those presentations. Punching, jig, etc.

I don't have a weight specifically, but I usually like to break my previous personal best by a pound, so this year I'll be searching for a 6-pounder.

Jar11591 reply :

LM: 10 lbs (might be a little unrealistic because I live up north. My current PB is over 5)

SM: 6 lbs (my current PB stands at 5.1)

Northern Pike: 20 lbs. (current PB is over 10)

dreamertino reply :

Get better at tournament fishing. Its hard for me to get a limit. Also to build confidence with spinnerbaits and jerkbaits.

FrogFreak reply :

This year I'm going to try and accomplish the following:

Let the circumstances tell me what to throw.
Spend some time graphing my local lake to find the spots within the spots.
Get better on a punch rig and a jig (when it's appropriate, see number 1 above)
Fish further into the fall but still duck hunt
Fish from my kayak more often in some out of the way places
Catch a fish on one of the lures I built!!!

grizzgreen18 reply :

beat my personal best LM of 3lbs

get confidence in crankbaits and spinnerbaits (actually achieved my goal of gaining confidence in plastics and jigs from last year)

catch a SM that i can actually say is a personal best

get a boat (and maybe a house so i can store it there instead of my buddies property)

Team9nine reply :

My fishing goals are the same this year as they were last year...NONE.

Just gonna' go and enjoy my time on the water this year...
