For me it's all about kayak fishing. Last year I got 4 muskies in the yak, but all of them were under 36". I'd like a 40" plus in the yak, as well as a channel cat over 10lbs.

What weight is your anchor?

[Dondorfish]

I guess my goals for 2007 ( fishing related ) would be to get out on the water more, try fishing new areas , and to get to know more of the fine people who frequent this board - whens the NEXT swill?!!!!

 

 

Happy New Year to all - and play safe tonight!!

Buying a house in the heart of the Rideau lakes and exploring the fishing. Cant seem to get much information but it sounds like lots of bass and lakers.

I have a trip to Nipigon PLanned for June so the 2 things i would like would be a 30pound plus Laker and a 6 pound plus spec.

Closer to home I really would like to finally break the 20 pound mark on a brown.

Oh and finally figure out easy end Erie eyes!

[Pigeontroller]

-Get out on Lake O. for Trout/Salmon more.

 

- Catch lots of Muskies, and break 45" on my home waters.

 

-Go Bass fishing a few times at least.

 

[tjsa]

My goal is the same as every year. To catch at least one fish that I am targetting on the day I am fishing, big or small, kept or released, does not matter. Targetting a fish I have never landed before is fine, but if I do not get one, oh well. There is always next time.

[Smokey]

My only goal is to get out fishing more. I always have huge dreams about fishing here and there but time never allows it. So next year will hopefully be the year of fishing for me.

 

Also to conquer downrigger fishing and learn as much as I can about it.

[Greencoachdog]

To catch a fish so big... it'll make anybody that see's a pic of it poop their pants!!!

[troutologist]

100 days on the water. same goal every year. I got closest in '06 with 74. damn you work/school.

[Joey]

To finally catch a Nippissing Musky! To learn how to drive and dock the boat in case Paul "accidentally" falls overboard (with or without an anchor wrapped around his ankle ).

[ecmilley]

have one goal--to catch an aurora trout

[fishdawg]

a BIG brown!

 

looks like I am gonna be doing a lot more open-water trolling for salmon trout & eyes & less time for bass/pike/muskie

[lookinforwalleye]

Fish every weekend from the Walleye opener till closing and everyday i am on holidays.

Try and fish Simcoe more and hook into a 7 Lbs. Smallie.

Try and get out to the BOQ in the fall.

Try Trout or Salmon fishing at least once.

[lew]

I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who actually does get to fish as much as I want, and I spend an incredible amount of days on the water over the course of a musky season.

 

I don't usually set goals, then I'm never disappointed if I don't reach them, but rather just hit the water every day and try to have a good time, and if the fish gods smile on me, well then, it was a good day. Two years ago I set a goal to help my daughter get her 1st musky, which she did, but setting that goal was an exception for me.

 

I've been very fortunate in the fact that I've shared my boat with more than 50 different OFNers over the last few years on musky trips and have made alot of good friends around here, and every year I hope to add a few more to the list.

 

Jamie, I guess the only real goal I've set for next year is to spend a couple days chasing those Ottawa River muskies with you like we've talked about so many times. I'll bring the Suicks and you supply the Dawgs and we'll see about getting that new boat of yours all slimed up

[jordan]

My goal for 2007 is to get out and fish more. And catch more fish haha.

[bassmaster4]

beat all of my pb's from this year

[musky66]

I hope to get a Musky on a fly- haven't even tried it yet...

I would like to finally get a Musky out of Blackstone/Woods Bay!

[Whopper]

I would be happy with another year like 2006

 

If I could possibly top it that would be great!

 

Whopper

[xrap]

To get a steelie over 10lbs

[nautifish]

Well my goal for 2007 would be to buy a nice log home nothing to big n fancy sat on a small island up north in the middle of *(&*( no where No neighbors at all.....Just me and nature ohhh and a timmys coffe drop twice a week.....Gotta have me timmies... ....lol..........Some where where i could just walk out my door and drop a line in the water with out having to hitch up a boat or walk miles.....

 

But fat chance of that so i guess i will just have to setlle with a muskie. Never caught one yet because i have never really fished for them. So 2007 i am hoping to catch a real nice one......
