I ask because I like to travel and finished my goal of fishing all 50 states before I turn 50 years old by flying to Alaska and Hawaii in July and August, 2018.

For 18 years worked at a job that I carried a 6 pieces rod or FED-EX a rod to the location. So I tallied the states and that came up to 38, lacking the northeast. Plus Canada, Mexico,Bahamas,and 3 of the Puerto Rican inlands; Evan tried to fish as the locals do in Puerto Rico with a hand line. 14 snapper by hand line is a rush!
Never knew that I was that obsessed with fishing, But there could far worst hobbies.

I haven't fished the East Coast and still intend to do that for stripers but have fished just about every other region/state of our Great Country.

Also, have journeyed to Mexico(both Gulf side and Pacific side), Belize, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Argentina, and the most remote destination of Kiramati Island (Christmas Island). Seeing how other people live and their cultures is very interesting to me.

Wow! I don't think we've ever covered this before on this section. I'm am a little surprised as most people I meet have never been out of Texas.

Hoo Boy, lets see: I have held fishing licenses in CO, UT, WY, NE, OK, AZ, NM, NV, CA, WA, ID, SD,MN,WI,VA, NC, PA, NH, FL, AL, GA, HI, AK and TX. I have held fishing licenses in Mexico, British Columbia and Saskatchewan. I have also fished in England, Spain, Portugal, France, Italy, Singapore, Philippines, Guam, Thailand, Diego Garcia and probably a couple of others.

But in all fairness I spent more than 25 years in the Navy and traveled all over the world and I always took fishing tackle with me.

I used the Navy as my charter service. Half the time I had no ideal what the fish I caught were. I was a cook, so I ate a lot of fish.
