Pressed pennies? Like, elongated, machine rolled pennies? Pics or it didn't happen.....My other hobbies include...
- weightlifting. I compete in bodybuilding competitions for the female 'bikini' division. And lifting heavy things is fun.
- cooking.
- backpacking. (and fishing)
- hiking.
- sports.
- collecting pressed pennies. I started collecting pressed pennies when I was 4.
- film photography and film cameras. My father is a huge film camera collector, so I am lucky to borrow different cameras to take on my backpacking trips! Here's a photo of a fishy lake

It’s on my list of things to carve. I’ve done a couple bowls. One of these days when I get the right piece of wood.
In general, going outside is the core hobby. Used to be a competent surfer till I moved away from the coast. Still not completely inept. Was a competent climber till covid hit and destroyed climbing gym time and family oriented climbing groups. Look forward to getting that back. Hiking, backpacking, camping. Skiing in winter, but now that Megacorp bought Crystal and completely ruined it I am sort of seeing that exiting, sadly. Working on the house, growing things... Plus raising two kids and generally insuring that my wife won't divorce me anytime soon.
I started collecting pocket knives when I stumbled across a good source of them. In a state where I used to live, I got to know a couple of state employees who worked with state surplus. Big warehouse with vehicles and equipment and things. There was this 50 gallon plastic barrel, and it was just full of loose knives. It turns out that this was the final destination of knives seized at the airport by the TSA. For a year or two, I could dig through the knives and buy as many as I could carry in two hands for $20, a box of donuts, and a box of coffee.
Later, the state figured out they were worth more and started having announced sales, with some researching on the prices. Those sales were cleaned out of good deals in minutes,
But I got a few that I like. Here's my favorite airport knife, a limited edition assisted opening Buck with Damascus blade and fossil mammoth scales:

I don't even have time for fly fishing, as of late. I didn't realize, until now, that I don't have any other hobbies.
If I had more time, I would probably try to get back into mountain biking and gaming.

Those are some dandy’s! I’ve got an old Rem 700 .17 Remington. It’s a blast to shoot.

I'm really enjoying this thread. In addition to fishing, I enjoy doing so many things! Mostly painting/drawing (I'm an illustrator), wood/metalworking, gardening. I especially like when hobbies crossover (I guess it's like a two-for-one) making fishing tackle, woodworking handtools. Much of that is on hold right now until we can buy a place with enough space to move my tools out of storage and set up a decent studio space. I really hope that can happen soon. I'm not that great at just getting out in nature. I always feel this need to be doing something. A few paintings/drawings and things I've made:
