2019? Definitely "Diversify my portfolio!" in terms of locations.
Force myself to do a lot more scouting and put up cams in lots of OTHER areas besides where I have already been at... so if those DFW fookers decide to pull some shenanigans again this year and close-off access, I'll be set with several other potential locations to hit up. (Fool me once? Shame on you. Fool me twice? Shame on me, Right?)
And with these good rains we had, for sure several of the alternate locations should be able to support them until September rolls around. I saw some good prospects for new locales while out trying for Bobcat, when I couldn't get across this swollen creek that raining weekend around the 8th or 15th of Feb. or whenever that was.
Going to be doing a lot more outings for Predator calling. I consider that unfinished business since I didn't recover that first one I ever shot. That doesn't set well within me.
And... probably most importantly. I want to get back in the habit of going to the Gym regularly again. Been noticing how this time away is affecting me negatively. Both in terms of health and mental health, due to the extreme solitude of working from my home all the damn time.
Want to get my boy thru Hunter Safety Course and get his first Hunting License. Then I figure take him to my Rabbit spot and to my Ground Squirrel spot to get his feet wet.
Also he specifically asked me to go fishing! And that makes sense since we live close to the coast. Got us both setup with Carolina Rigs to go after Surf Perch. Now just got to see if I need licenses, then schedule some weekend days to go begin trying it. Get the boy used to wakin' up at he butt-crack of dawn. Which reminds me I'll need to scout out some parking situations too. Figure park like going to Dog Beach, then cast and cast working way towards Bolsa Chica and see what happens.
BTW, big thank you to the folks that live nearer towards me that offered advice regarding setups, locations to try, etc.
