#1. Stop drooling on yourself....
#2.Prepare and fiddle with all your gear in preparation of the coming season...
#3.absorb yourself in shows and magazine articles until you can't take it anymore...and you want to puke
#4.Try not to drive your spouse/family/friends mad with your wall climing ways......(it will only add tension)
#5. If need be go to shows and buy new gear and all kinds of tackle.....(one can NEVER have too many goodies)
#6.Go home and rearange new tackle in tackle box....remove and rearrange once more....making sure to get everything "just so"
#7. Visit the message boards and talk about your issues with others...
#8. start dreaming of when and where your fish striper of the season will be......
#9.stop drooling on yourself and your computer.....
#10.Make a check list of all the places, times, techniques, etc. you want to try (when the time comes make sure to check off all those "wanted to dos" and make sure you get to them all!

)
#11.as much as you hate it...it is do or die now.....get as many "honey-do's" out of the way NOW as you can...(hey would you rather DO them or HEAR about them come May??? and June??? or July!!!!!!and so on???) Thats what I thought....
#12. last but not least make sure you have your escape routes well planned and plenty of good excuses pre-thought up.......this will make for smoother fishing trips (and relationship with loved ones) if you have good planning AHEAD of time and not the same old lame last minute blurbs you came up with last time you were in "hot water"!!!!!

SPECIAL BONUS STEP: Due to the fact that #12 is NOT fool proof it is always a wise decision to start building that dog house and have it properly stocked with all your needs ....JUST in case.....

Hows that sound eh???
