Thread: First Day of Summer and 50th Trip

Very nice and a dang good goal, hope you make it!!!!

Yep, I keep a log of the days I fish. Haven't added 'em up yet though.

I keep up with my duck hunting like this, but not crappie yet. Fished much more this year than the past two, though.

Nice job!! I def keep a fishing log, it's fun to look back at some of the old trips and see just how different my memory is from what I wrote down too Congrats on the 2 day a week habit too!!

I didn't even think about writing down some details of the trip. I just keep a count on the calendar. Wednesday I wrote "49" on the calendar, and today I wrote "50." That way I don't have to add them up, but keeping a log with some details sounds like a fun idea.

Added mine up, 68 and counting. I jot down pertinent info, where, when , how many and such.

I jot down the date, time of day, what lake, water temp and level, rising/falling, clear/dirty, weather, what I did and how many caught, and maybe a few other tidbits that stand out for that day. As I said before, I will look back at trips that I think I remember pretty well, and there are usually a lot of specifics that I have totally rearranged in my feeble little brain. I think it helps a lot to be able to look back at what you were doing at a given time period for the last few years and what the water levels and conditions were like, you start to see some consistent patterns. I keep a little notebook in my truck and then transfer it all to a Word.doc and I have it on my phone too, that old data has helped me more than once on tough days!!

Shaddup you.
