new years resolutions

[Saltheart]

I have a New Years resolution I am super good at making since I make the same resolution every year (with varying degrees of success) That of course would be to lose weight. That one is always on my mind after the almost month long Thanksgiving to Christmas pig out!

1. Surf fish more 2. Surf fish more in the a.m., ie hour before sunup. That is a very,very productive time to fish and I need to get my butt out of bed, something I have never been able to do! 3. Use plugs and other artificials more. I plan to use at least one needle, swimmer or darter at least once per trip for a good amount of time. Fish more in a wet suit.

I have the same problem of getting up early.I have about a 80 percent chance of going out at 10 pm an lasting till 5 or 6..
It's starting to really kick my butt though.
I have about a 30 percent chance of getting up at 3:30 to fish that last part of the darkness...Not a morning person.
Each dawn I die.
I also have to agree if u ask me the best time to fish for large fish is the last 2 hrs prior to sun up..
Just the opposite of you with the plugs.I plan on using eels more this year..
Not really a resolution, it's just something I have been planing on as soon as I stop fishing(still Blackfishing)
I'm going to quit smoking myself any day now..
I have been gearing myself up for it for a while now this time I plan on making it stick..I had it beat last spring but I opened up the door with one smoke.I should have known better.I quit drinking 13 yrs ago this April..

Just shy of a month now. Bugs the crap out of me sometimes but so glad I did. Pi$$ed I went through so much trying to get here.

Only thing harder for me to do was 1) See my kid sick & in pain. 2) Not quit day job to go fishing when I KNOW people are nailing large! (OK, maybe quitting smokes was 2nd hardest).
