What are your hobbies?

[Cody309]

Hey everyone!

So sometimes I cannot trust myself to stick to timelines when I'm fishing, so I have to do other things with my time here and there This is generally what takes up my free time in the summer when I'm not fishing:


Great day for Golf by WDCodyClifford, on Flickr

Other than that, I can be found at the rink in the winter, gym all year round, tennis, playing guitar, or having a few pints with friends.

Figured this may be a good way to connect on a non-fishing basis as well

What are your hobbies?

Cheers,

Cody

I'm a naturalist, so things like birding and such are my thing. Also, photography, usually nature or aircraft. I also enjoy building model aircraft, and almost exclusively in a genre known as 'what if?'. That means I can do anything from putting on the markings of an air force that never used the type, or coming up with a completely wild creation from whatever parts are laying around. A few years ago I combined that hobby with fishing, and came up with this after my daughter found an old Rapala in the water::http://www.aircraftresourcecenter.com/Gal6/5601-5700/gal5680_Sudenkorento_Bailey/00.shtm

My hobbies include, organizing my tackle, putting new line on my reels, oiling my reels, fixing the rod tips on all of my rods, even ones that aren't broken, saving to buy more fishing stuff, pinching the barbs down on all my hooks and lures!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Just kidding! I really only organize my tackle, putt new line on my reels and pinch the barbs down on all my hooks and lures!!!! I also plauy the guitar, banjo and drums, go to concerts, make things like a cigar box guitar, harmonics, wooden crankbaits. I also find myself using fishing line to fix any piece of jewelery ever made for all the women in my life, as a quick fix... Really, I just like doing stuff with my hands... I think most others are in a similar boat as me... I collect antique comics, I love the western ones as well as antique metal soldiers. I also play tennis, some golf and love to ski.

Nice! I've made a few model airplanes when I was younger, but nothing like this...

Other than fishing, I like shooting off rounds with my .22's, mountain biking, camping, and I also collect pocket knives

To be honest if I am not actually fishing, I am studying books on how to's or new tips on old tricks. I do however play football still and has been a part of my life since I was 12. I was fortunate enough to play down in Baltimore for a season with an arena league team. Very fun!

 

[remyboy1]

I teach muay thai..not so much anymore hence it becoming a hobby instead of a full time thing as it was years ago...and fly fishing....

 

[AaronKrick]

I fish 100% of my free time in the spring, summer, and fall, but in winter I play hockey. I have also gotten into fly tying and can tie a decent wooly booger.

Well lets see fishing, bows, my three sons ( one set of twin boys 2 months old and 1 3 yr old son. ) ( yeah I am busy!! LOL )

Besides the kids I bow hunt, 3D shoot, and indoor range shooting.

 

[GuitarBuildingAngler]

I build guitars. I have a company where I build custom guitars for people all over the world. I also enjoy doing guitar repairs as well.

Aside from guitar building I play guitar and record music in my free time. I have a band and we record music with musicians all over (San Fransisco, New York, etc).

I recently just released a full length album (via the internet. Hard copy coming soon).

If i'm not fishing which is most of my free time I work on my car, play the odd video game either go to or watch football on tv

 

[christotheashto]

I fish quite a bit, but make lots of time for other things as well. Really depends on the season.
All year round I powerlift and do crossfit. I cook alot and try to eat "paleo" most of the time so I'm always messing around with new recipes.
I collect records and am a turntablist dj, so no mixing club songs but I do alot of scratching and beat juggling, stuff like that.

 

[fisher12]

I play basketball quite often, sometimes I play video games a lot and watch movies/tv shows.

 

[rich_ace_G]

This is it for me right here. If i'm not at work or chilling with my kids. I'm in the water.

 

[emirribolov]

[Kasim Baluch]

Work at the airport so I love airplanes and hopefully travel. I just started there so another few months and I'm done my probation and I will be on all those discounted flights with my gear

 

[Dozer]

I'm addicted to fishing. Outdoors type of guy, spend lots of time at the cottage ( or in the middle of a forest ) sleeping under the stars... harvesting mushrooms and other fruits of the land is a favorite pass time of mine. Love animals - used to breed snakes and other reptiles/amphibians. Have a small collection of animals at the moment... at one point I had 60+ individual animals ( dogs, small mammals, turtles, birds, spiders, etc. ) I also love taking photos of anything and everything.

Big momma.



Tub 'O Snakes, I produced these guys.



Great idea for a thread... some amazing work GBA

Im a turtle and fish keeper.

1 snapping turtle, 1 painted turtle, 2 catfish, 10 or so tetras, loads of snails, and some minnows.

 

[Giuga10]

Most of my time is spent fishing but I also enjoy, skateboarding, riding my bike, soccer, hockey, pet keeping (almost 100% fish), exploring wildlife areas (forests, rivers ect), promoting and helping with conservation of living things and wildlife areas, and photography (two of my favorite photos I've taken).

Aside from all that, it's pretty much all fishing related.
