Between a poorly timed late spring vacation and other commitments I probably won't have as much time fishing as I had last year, so I plan on trying to make the most of my trips. I'm also going to fish a lot with my son this year. He turned 7 over the winter and keeps bugging me to get him on a keeper bass and some blues. I've taken him 3 times so far and even after getting skunked he wants to go again. I told him he's gonna do all right if he keeps his expectations low and just enjoys doing it and doesn't worry about the results.
I'm also planning on doing some trips with the yakrats since last year was a bust for me with the yak. And after buying a wetsuit this winter, I'll be getting out to some of those rocks that used to be out of reach.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Because of health reasons I missed most of last year. I am not much better this year but plan on more fishing! Not so much on numbers but more on quality, I need to and want to learn more areas as most of mine are fished out My son has stepped up last year and this driving the boat and gets better each time!
I love just taking friends out and finding them fish, makes me feel good even if I don't fish that day.
I lost my mother this year and my dad is not a well person, and at 75 he isn't getting any younger! He lives in VT. and use to come vist me each year, but has not come the last few for his own issues. But he states he is coming this June and I can't wait til h gets here!

Going to try to make this year and any others count!! As I am not sure how many more we are going to have!!
