Default Re: What Are Your Fishing Goals For This Year?

I wanna fish as much as I can this year and I'm already not off to a good start! I have missed 2 drum bites in a row and that is one of my goals for this year.
big drum from surf,
cobia from surf and pier,
king mackeral from pier,
jack from pier or surf,
striper over 40" from surf,
as many sharks as my arms and tackle can handle.
A non-catching goal I have is to start building rods. Hopefully I can knock drum off my list this weekend.

someone posted about fishing for 24 hours and it brought back a memory. When I was 15 or 16 I paid $400 for a rental house for a week down in Nagshead. When we arrived I put my clothes in the house I told my dad to take me to the pier and he did. He checked on me everyday and picked me up on the way to go on the charter boat we had in the middle of the week. We got off the boat and took our fish home, I made me a piece of tuna, pased out in the bath tub for 30 minutes and went back to the pier. He picked my up again after they had packed everything up and were on the way home. 1 week vacation and I spent 400 dollars to eat a piece of fish and take a bath in the house! Now that's a fishing trip! 8) I even caught a sailfish off the pier when I was there!
