What will you do different this season?

[Vollmer]

Every season I try to have a gameplan. What do I want to focus on? What do I want to improve upon?

This year I will focus on finding fish, then setting up on them with spot-lock, or anchor, and jigging.
I am a fan of aggressive tactics, so I will want to perfect jigging rip n raps, jig n raps, jigs w/ plastics, and other lures of this kind.

I've used these tactics over the years, but I think I will put an extra focus on them this year.

In addition, I will continue perfecting pulling cranks.

Finally, I will be looking to top riverfisher in the jumping rock piles category. I got a few picked out already.

My goal is to actually put a walleye in my livewell this summer. Did not accomplish that in six trips last year.

 

[RustyTackleBox]

I am planning on working on the same stuff V... I also want to target bigger fish that I find with my electronics

note: that 2nd thing will probably get me a lot of northern

 

[shorthairsrus]

hook the boat up get in my truck -- drive south until the outside temp says 85 then look for a lake.

Spring - snow overrated

 

[Captain Ahab]

Just try to make time to hit the patterns I have found over the years. Also, get my boys out in the boat more now that they are a little older.

 

[guywhofishes]

learn to troll cranks like a pro

determine optimal setup for - and get real good at pitching - finesse stickbaits

I need to help you put that problem six feet under

 

[Fishmission]

Target new lakes and different species. Hankering for big trout this year too. Will spend some time in Canada for that.

That's a mighty tall order, but you're welcomed to try.

 

[3Roosters]

I am going to focus on utilizing different types of the tackle in my tackle boxes that I just HAD to buy at the time. Friggin tackle shops!;:;banghead

 

[Jigaman]

After the success I had last fall with jiggin raps I want to try using them in the spring/summer. and of course, pull lots of BB and spinners like usual.

 

[Twitch]

I want to try the jiggin/rippin raps when the fish go deep in the summer for something different

 

[LBrandt]

Just plain flat ass going to fish more come hell or high water. Told my brother the other day that I have spent the last 50 years doing for others and now its my turn to do for me.

 

[Fisherman25]

My goals are to get a ton of data collected with my autocharts live. The best two ways to do that is to crank a lot and make my wife happy by pleasure cruising. That won't be as painful now that I can watch contours be built as I go.

I want to spend more time cranking than I ever have although with more people doing that every year I feel like the shorelines will be peppered soon, so I may have to find a trick to pull deep fish.

I've got a good jump on this, but I want to fish earlier and later in the year with more consistency. I'm in that stage of life with young kids, so unless the wife plays ball, I lose a lot of great fishing days to (it's too cold for the kids out there today). This will still be a big challenge for me this year but hopefully I gain a few days.

 

[fish-r-man]

Gonna try some new spots on the lake and learn how to use the electronics. Also, pull cranks and BB like a champ.

 

[ccarver80]

Use more crankbaits, try more casting and retrieve in the Boat, place in upper 50% of the Fishin For The Cure tournament in june

 

[arrowdem]

well it doesnt say it has to be about fishing.... i will be holding out til the bitter end if need be, i am a trophy hunter only this year with my archery tackle i have some big boys that are alive from last year that i will be putting a lot of time and energy into harvesting this year. im going to shoot a lot more archery so i can become much more proficient, so unless i either kill a mulie with my bow or a whitetail over 150 i will be eating tag soup up until the last day because i do very much so enjoy venison to get me through the winter so i would have to put something down to fill the freezer!

 

[Sub_Elect]

I vow to park my gloomis and dedicate the appropriate amount of time with my lightning rod.

 

[DirtyMike]

I covered my boat in flat black paint so I don't stick out. Already channeled my inner riverfisher on saturday so the boat gets a shiny new keel guard next monday.

I am going to work on pulling deeper cranks with leadcore and snap weights. I will also work on jigging raps and rippin raps come fall. With a little one in the house now, just getting out on the water will be a challenge. Oh and healing up from the injuries sustained when I tell the wife the league finale and aim is the same weekend is our anniversary.

 

[Gus]

Glide baits and cranks don't work. Y'all just keep on with your BB and bent hooks like ya were and the world will keep spinnin

 

[wildeyes]
