For many of us, in many parts of the world, fishing season is too short. For example in New Hampshire most people go perhaps 6 months at most in freshwater and saltwater fishermen usually only get 4 months in. Many folks would like to fish more, and it's often possible. Here are a few ideas to help you out.
1) Fish for more species. For example, I'm a striped bass fisherman primarily, and it doesn't start until mid May. However it is quite good in April for trout and by targeting trout I get an extra 6 weeks in the spring. Similarly when the striped bass leave, there are plenty of other fish left.
2) If the waters you fish close, perhaps even most of the waters, there may be spots still open for your favorite types of angling. For example for trout and salmon fishermen in my state, once the waters close in the fall during breeding season, there are still a few streams near Lake Winnipesauke that are still open.
3) To get more fishing in during the peak of the best fishing, go nights and rainy days as well. You'll get more time in and it is even better sometimes at those times.
4) In a word, travel. Try to combine even a family vacation with a quick morning out, or bring a pack rod along when on business trips as I often do. Mysteriously my trips to nice fishing locations often get extended.
5) If in the north, consider ice fishing. If you've never done it, you may find it becomes your favorite type of fishing
