Hook up the trailer, put tackle in boat and go fishing.

Yep, that's what I thought. I over prepare. I'll tell my wife that she was right. I do like the yoga/meditate idea.

i'm known to think about it for days before i go again

As soon as I get back from a trip the batteries go on charge. The next morning everything else is reset so that's it's ready for next time. The poles are always close to the door along with my tackle box. I either throw the Jon boat in the bed of the pickup, or hitch up the Tracker and I'm off. I love fishing tubes, and I will have a bag all pre-rigged (stupid rig) in the tackle box.  

I usually go out at least twice a week. I fish local during the week and go on the longer trips on the weekend. Usually the day before I head out I'll get all my stuff together. I'll check the weather report and see the most current fishing report if there is one. I do think about fishing at work but I don't do it every minute. I may be getting bored with the work I am doing at that time or just tired so I'll think about maybe my last fishing trip and if I did anything wrong or good.

We agree to a weekend all-night fishing trip usually mid-week. Wed, Thurs and Friday, we talk on the phone several times about what we're going to be using, where to cast and where we're going to start. Come Friday, I check weekend weather conditions and high temps. Then I check out Farmer's Almanac for the moon phase and moon rise/set time. We stock up on drinks and food, too. Friday afternoon is tackle time. I'll spend a good 3 hours meticulously going through my tackle box and making sure what I need is in there, taking old stuff out and putting new stuff in. Then I will put brand new line on every rod and reel I plan on taking. After that, we get a couple bags of ice, our traditional good luck breakfast (yes, breakfast in the evening  ) and head out.
