My hobbies tend to come and go at times (you know get bored and move on) but overall:

1) Bass and trout fishing. Spinner not fly and def not ice fishing.
2) Mountain Biking (You know the non motorized kind, you have to pedal?).
3) RC choppers, and airplanes. The smaller electric kind.
4) Occasional camping.
5) Macgyver-ing stuff to fix or improve. Wait is that a hobby or a sickness?
6) Keeping out of trouble. (really a full time job)

Default hobby

Sailing and fishing mostly, but have taken up golf again recently since my son is playing. Since business has been so bad this year I have also renewed interest in the stock market in another way to bring in some income. Years ago did my own trading and did pretty well but when business picked up in the late 90s handed it over to a "professional". Still to this day I have not been able to make up for all the losses he "made me" during that dot com bubble. This year has been good, and coming in at a good time with my business off so much.

Riding the bike as much as possible and restoring my circa 1890 house while keeping my eyes peeled for primo condition WWI Enfield #1 Mk III's. I like to cook and bake as well

Other hobbies, politics, blogging, shooting, hunting,reloading, teaching concealed carry classes, running, real estate speculation, kayaking, canoeing, backpackintg...(that one is pretty dormant), writing (been paid for a couple of articles), careless photography, and farmboy woodworking/mechanics.

Used to build plastic scale models. Got pretty good at it. Got a few 1st places with planes I built. Haven't done it in a long time and been selling all my kits on Ebay. Sold quite a few but still have a lot left I'm selling. Just don't have the time or space any more. Collected a lot of other stuff too. Lots of comic book figures and stuff from the band KISS. All of that will be going up on Ebay too. Still collect comic books from time to time. I like a lot of the Ghost Rider stuff. Always wanted to get into photography but haven't found anyone else around me who is interested in it that can help me out with it.

Had lots of hobbies over the years. I was going to list them all, but it would be too long a list. Basically I'm a motorhead and have been tinkering with eninges and vehicles all my life. For the last 10 years or so I've been building cars.

My other hobbies are fishing(fly,spin,salt,fresh,etc) surfing, snorkeling and pretty much anything that has to do with the water whether it be ocean, lake or river. Also enjoy playing with guns, dirt bikes and cooking.
