What are you trying to make happen this year?
I'd like to
-get my first thresher
-get my soupfin
-get my first corbina (why it's taken this long...)
-get better at catching sw bass from the Mosquito (didn't try much of in 2021 TB quite H)
-go down to the Sea of Cortez for some new species, hopefully some real gamefish!
Some other species that I think I can finally get this year like diamond turbot, bonefish, garibaldi(god forbid!) but those 3 feel urgent that I gotta get done.
Now you!
Bull shark! ;D
Amberjack and mahi are the two other species that I'm slightly embarrassed I haven't caught yet in FL.
-Start a life list
-Keep better logs of my shark catches
-I want a bycatch of 2 species (iykyk)
-100lb tuna
-legal WSB
-shore caught YT
-bonefish
-join the 100" 7gill club
Actually measure and weigh any new personal bests.
Fish more plastics.
Add a rudder to the kayak.
Pretty good lists so far.
Mine are not as extravagant as they have been in years past, but here it goes.
- Catch a 40# Halibut and/or WSB... I finally got my 40# yellow, so I just need these two to make the 40/40/40 SoCal Club
- Catch at least 20 new species this year... I have over 300, but will resort to smaller critters if need be to attain this goal
- As Jeremy mentioned, go to the Sea of Cortez (like Gonzaga Bay) and get some fine inshore fishing for all those exotics
- Catch an exotic shark/ray from the beach (other than 7-gill, Soupie, Leopard, Smoothhound, or bat ray
That's pretty much my goals for 2022... everything else is just the icing and cherry.
I just want to get my boat and not have any more surgeries :-[

Best one yet.
I'm digging em.
Yup Tom I hope to hit Puerto Peñasco in the springtime, hopefully with the boat. I could knock off corvina, triggerfish, pompano, and possibly some groupers/bass around April. Then I got an invite to trailer a boat down to Loreto in August, hopefully finding tons of inshore exotics as well as the gamefish. I added maybe 10 species in 2021 and I'd like to add a lot more this year. However those big ones like threshers have taken a lot of my time and might take even more.
Hoping the same for you Tim, can't wait for your first report from the new sled.
