When I look out at 2019 I can’t look much past what will happen at the end of the month. That’s when I’m going to be heading to Christmas Island.
I mean… Christmas Island.
Yeah…that’s a big one.
That’s my big trip for the year. Very much looking forward to that trip. My gear is in. Lots of tying still to be done, but it should be a very, very good time.
Spring Break with my daughter is still a bit undecided. Planning on camping in Kauai, but I need to get that reserved. If it is full, well… not sure where we’ll go. Planning on being somewhere fairly tropical. Trying to do something on the cheap, so we’ll see what I put together. Fishing is always a part of this, but not the main thing.
There is a planned trip to Hawaii, but we are going to the BIg Island this time, so I won’t get to fish with Kenny in 2019. I don’t know what the fishing is like on the Big Island, but I have the impression it’s a rare thing to catch a bone there.
Hope to get the kids back camping up in trout country.
I need to get my now 5 year old son into more fish in 2019 and I’m suspecting Jack Smelt might be the way forward. They are plentiful and they are close. These are two key attributes.
I’m hoping to get a trip up to the McCloud in there somewhere too. It is one of the most beautiful rivers in the world and there is some thread that ties me to it. Each year I don’t fish it I feel some pang, some faint discordant twang on that thread.
Where are you fishing in 2019?

You might think about Cozumel for spring break with your daughter. There are lots of nice beaches there and fun things to do. Plus some awesome fishing opportunities in 3 large lagoons on the north end that have bonefish, snook and baby tarpon. I caught a really nice Blue fin trevally on the big island, so it’s a lot of blind casting baitfish patterns but there are fish to be caught right off the shore.
