What are you New Years fishing resolutions?

Mine are to spend less money(on fishing which is where most of the money goes), catch more fish, and either get out on someone's boat or start tube or kayak fishing.

Get out more.  The amount of times I got out fishing this year is small enough to make anyone cry.  Ontop of that is join a club and place in the money in at least one tournament.  My longshot resolution is to be Angler of the Year in said club.

Catch a DD. I've been bass fishing for 30 years and my PB is only 8.5 lbs. I live ten minutes from a lake that routinely gives up 10+ pounders, so it's an obtainable goal.

Actually catch fish on/learn to use jigs, flukes, spinnerbaits, and crankbaits(consistently). Learn how to identify patterns to locate fish using something other than the trial and error/previous experience. Also, get a boat setup that isn't makeshift.

at least you've had one lol.  My big fish goal this year was to break 5 pounds, came as close as possible without going over that "magical" 5 pounder mark.  But up here a 3-4 pound fish is "big".

X2.

I spent most of last year working on Texas Rigs, so I would like to spend more time working on some hard baits this year. And learning when, where, and how to throw them better than I already do.

I really would like to get out more. I'll be getting my license in March and will be able to go fishing whenever I want instead of relying on other people.

Ive got a couple of easy ones......

1. find a goto bait for my new home lake (there are lilypads 100 yards from my front door)

2. teach my best friend to fish lily pads..... (hes never even used artificial baits before.... im in for a treat)

I have driven through the Portage lakes areas with some family who live in Ohio.  those places look like some nice fishing.

Ya! theres TONS of little lakes here. like the ones ive learned to fish on. but the portage lakes are a little larger (still small by comparison to the local resvrs.)

but theyre packed with all sorts of good fish!

they have a big gambler no entry fee tourney there basically every year!

I havent had a chance to fish them yet. but theres miles of shore line to cover! Ill keep u posted. :)

Fish a few new lakes. Focus on smallmouth more.

Fish a lake over 5000 acres. (this will probably be Burt and Mullet lakes-18,000, and 17,000 acres-HUGE for me)

Posted

Fish earlier in the morning, fish more often, and break the 5 pound mark. Tried to break 5lbs last year but could not. My PB is 4-14.

This is the year i get a used canoe or small boat, nothing big cuz the lakes that are close to me are elec. motors only

I've only been bass fishing for about 3 years, and I've spent a lot of time learning what baits work and what ones I just waste time on.  This year I want to 1) spend less money on lures and 2) concentrate on my go-to baits and hopefully 3) buy 1-2 more rod/reel set-ups

...and like every day of every year, improve my PB for LM and SM

This year I want to learn to use my electronics in my boat better. I've always been a bank beater and I want to be able to locate and catch fish that are not related to the bank.

Enter in a few tournaments, learn how to fish a lizard, learn how to fish a tube, and most importantly spend more time on the water.
