Location: Ogden, Ut | Resolutions, huh?
Why fight it...I figure I'll spend more time on the message boards, buy more baits, buy more equipment, and generally add to the piles of stuff I truly don't need, but think it would be cool to have. And while I'm at it, I may as well gain another 10 lbs.
In reality, I plan to spend some time fishing muskies in Minnesota when I visit this summer, hopefully get that first purebred ski. I have also decided to improve my boat control abilities, bring fewer baits in the boat, and change those baits even less. I am also going to spend more time in less traditional spots on the water I fish. The 'milk run' is a nice confidence builder...but there's gotta be more out there waiting for me!

Location: oswego, il | Maybe fish up north a few more times nexst year. Try and fish with some people i only had a chance to fish with one time last year and fish with some people who wanted to fish and never had the chance while still fishing with people I have fished with last year.
I also want to invent a weather machine which will regulate temperature so it never gets above 80 degrees! |

Location: The Sportsman, home, or out on the water | First,
Musky 99, did you marry either one of my ex-wifes? HAHAHAHA. Do you know why divorces are so expensive? BECAUSE THEY ARE WORTH IT!
Ok, fishing wise:
#1 to fish with as many folks as I can this year (yes, including you K-Bob and Dr. Mike), because fishing with other sticks broadens your knowledge.
#2 to learn (or concentrate) on the things I have learned over the last year or so. I'm still pretty new to the trolling thing, put 4 in the boat for us, and learned some new stuff, as well as getting an education on glider fishing.
Seriously, fish with as many folks as you can (especially K-Bob).

Location: Wishin I Was Fishin' | I plan on fishing more suspended, at least a cast length off of the weedline. I'm getting a Lowrance 332C this winter to help keep the boat there too.
I think it will be tough for me to find someone to share the boat with who can take the mental stresses of fishing away from the structure. I might have to play the "It's my boat I'm the captain" card. |

Location: Pewaukee, Wisconsin | Really, really dial in two patterns I figured out that I didn't spend enough time with. (suspendo's pattern and a shallow pattern) I think I found two good ones most people overlook around my area. Tested them and scored on both. Got away from them while working guide dates and never got back to them. You got to go to the bread and butter when clients want fish.
Catch the lake record !!!

| 1-I am going back to all the areas that I didn't put a cast into. and making two cast there.
2-Not going to let friends sit up all night around the fire pounding whiskey suck me into to it  (I had a very bad hangover in one of my pictures.)
3-I don't know if I will be able to get out as much as I used to due to having a daughter now, so I will need to fish a lot smarter than ever before. I didn't feel pressured before cause I had all day, now I think its going to be a game of "beat the buzzer"
4-Last year I gave up the bait washing thing for the most part but this year I think I will kick the habit for good. (too many baits, not enough time)you know!
5-Last but not least, I will always keep my patience, its my best virtue, I may have to wait all day, but my payout is always worth it.
Like Mr.Worrall said last night"You should never be pissed off after a day of musky fishing-never"
also-quit smoking. |

| --Try to master boat control
--Try to REALLY cover a spot instead of getting frusterated and moving on quickly
--Pay more attention to bait selection, and in keeping with the second one, try to give a bait more time to catch fish instead of getting frustrated and moving on to another one
--Work on setting the hook harder |

| On a few very specific areas, and as a general rule of thumb on others, I will be making my first pass on a spot an additional cast deeper (farther from structure). I said I was going to last year, but didn't hold true to my own word...this year, yes. |

Location: Roscoe IL | Use larger baits with hopes of increasing the size of the fish I catch.
Master the art of boat control.
Try to get my 7yr old son to stay interested in fishng for more that 1 hour.
Mostly have fun and be sure to respect other anglers (boat distance) when on the water & at the boat launch. Not new to me but I just don't want to ever forget.
Fish Smarter. |

| #1 Pay off the boat
#2 To try and fish just as much as I did last year. I know trying to fish more is unrealistic being I have a new daughter. We all know how kids change things in life and one of the first things to go is your free and personal time. 
#3 Get back to relaxing on the water. Not worrying or stressing about the "NEED" to catch a fish. Not worrying about the numbers of fish boated this year nor worrying about the overall size of the fish. I'm just gunna get back to relaxin' and fishin'. No cares, no worries...gettin' back to the roots of why I fish in the first place: to relax and get away from it all and away from everyone.
#4 Being I do have a new daughter and my wife and I are starting our family...I need to be more efficient with my time on the water.
#5 Get back to fishing other lakes and back to some lakes I haven't been to in two or three years.
#6 Get back to multi-species fishing. Contrary to popular belief, there really IS other fish out there other than muskie. |
