2025 Goals?

[jrodda]

1. 365 fish total (not counting baitfish) - good general goal to keep me out of the house, using the sh!t I have piled up, if nothing else. I failed this past year but there were times when this got me off the couch, which is a big net positive.

2. OC striper - it's an explicitly miserable competition amongst my co-workers that we all still need to catch one, despite our collective man hours spent in 2024 trying to accomplish this.

3. Solo Swordfish - based on the prerequisite that I find my livingston deal, I would like to spend Q4 on accomplishing this, with just a bit of rockfishing to maintain my sanity.


If/when I get the next boat, of course I will intend on maximizing pelagic trips in the summer among other inshore adventures, but I'm gonna do my best to play it cool on that front and not hurry myself into a gnarly project boat or anything like that. I'll try to soothe myself with surf fishing for the better part of the year.


Any goals on anyone else's mind?

That's a good list Jeremy and I'm not sure yet what my goals would be.  I elaborate in a post later but a swordfish, get the big 3 in the 40's (only have a YT at 43, but only a 26# WSB and a 35.5# halibut).  Maybe try for a state record...  I'll definitely think about this.

Beat Chumpmerica and peronirodda in football again.

My hope is to land a YT on The Cyclops this year and definitely try to get more time on the water.

Also I want to explore the Artificial Reefs a bit more and try to get Janie and Max on some fish without getting sick   

I am going to try to go to The Sierras at least 3 time this year instead of only twice, there are so many areas I would like to explore.

Last but not least, 5 new batteries for The Cyclops, not sure how long my current ones will last.
