Here are the long-anticipated 2009 Fishing Goals, in no particular order:
~ Catch a fish in at least 3 new rivers.
~ Catch a fish in a new state. I’ve caught fish in AK*, CO, MA, MD, MI*, MT, NJ, NY, OR, PA, VA, VT, WA, and WI*. Asterisks indicate spinning rod rather than fly rod, which means I caught fish there long, long ago.
~ Catch a fish during every month from March to December. I’m not including January and February for some odd reason.
~ Catch a fish at night (between 10pm and 4am).
~ Catch a fish on a mouse pattern. Umm, I’ll probably try this pattern out at night.
~ Catch a fish from the very depths of the Beaverkill’s Sunoco Pool. More will be said about this plan at some later date.
~ Tie more flies. Move from "Terrible" fly-tyer to "Average" fly-tyer. Baby steps, you see.
~ Take someone for their first time on a river, fly-fishing.

Three new rivers sounds like fun. State College area perhaps?
Added a couple of bullets to the Sunoco Deep Attack plan. Size 4. Nuf said.
