What is your fishing related goal that you would like to accomplish in 2012?
Mine is a real tough one...I'd like to set the IGFA 2lb line record for King Mackeral :headbang:
Other than that I'd like to catch a speck in 7-8lb range

How big does that 2# fish need to be?
I believe the record right now is 24lb 2 oz...when I attempt it, it will be from the kayak
A noble goal :headbang:
Mine is to catch a sailfish and a wahoo from my kayak.
I wanna make it past Dec 21, 2012 the end of the world and fish it in 2013 :P
Mine really is togo out to the Blue water off or baot and get a sail and wahoo this year! :headbang:

lol yeah i got dad talked into going BIG this year..just gotta find that comfort zone with mother nature and watch the weather
Catch my first cobia.
Catch a 30#+ king.
Catch a bobo.
Catch a black drum.
Hook up on a tarpon.
:yippee:Fish as much as I can today, for there may not be a tomarrow, Mike
Catch a YFT & BFT
Catch a 30lb+ King
Catch a Mahi
Get certified to dive and start spearfishing!
All of this reminds me of a prayer in the Farmers Almanac (with a slight modification):
Fishermen are a different group. Nothing bothers them. They can stand on a pier or sit in a boat all day. The preference is to catch a fish or two but hey, just fishing makes time whittle away.
A Fisherman’s Prayer
God grant me a little more time
To pick up my rod, and cast my line.
Work and worry disappear
When I pick up my fishing gear.
With fishing cart in truck, I will go
Anywhere the fishing’s not too slow.
Work just doesn’t seem so fine
When I see what’s at the end of my fishing line.
When I am feeble, old and grey
Please don’t take my pole away.
When the Pearly Gates open wide
Please find this old fisherman, one good pier inside!
Catch a ling from a boat, as well as try and break dad's record.
Catch a 40+ king, or at least a bigger one than last year.
Catch more kings than last year.
Get in on more days when the big spanish are going nuts.
Catch a cobia so I can see what all the fuss is about.
:fishing: :fishing: :fishing:
getting my first king
:eat: :eat: :eat:

Nice poem. There is no polite "applause" icon, so you get the next closest thing. :headbang:

I am certainly an advocate of UL goals. That is an admirable one as well.
:headbang:
The Speck will come. Get with me in March or November and we'll make it happen.
Sounds like a plan VG. Theres nothin more fun than UL imho.
