What Now?

My Dr. says the earliest I should consider attempting to catch fish would be May 1st.  I told him I'd likely be on the water some time in April. He said that he new I was hard of hearing, but didn't know I was hard headed. "I heard you just fine and you can ask anyone, I'm not hard headed. I just don't figure I'll catch anything, so why hold off until May?"

Funny....very funny...thanks for the smiles.  Remember last year when I had the acute pancreatitis.  Doctor never said anything about not going fishing but it was sure hard to fish when I was bent over most of the time waiting for the pain.  Remember fishing a couple hours a day and resting for two or three days.  Then I caught a couple big stripers and held them up for pic and added a double hernia operation to the mix.  That one slowed me the most....ouch.

OUCH!

I am listening to him and have fishing to thank for the motivation to do my physical therapy. I will say that I will never have three procedures done at once again. By the time I finish all the therapy, it's time to start again. On the plus side, the drugs are great and I don't have to worry about keeping myself occupied  You guys can get your mind out of the gutter, I'm not THAT old.
