D4u2s0t Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 try casting more with your wrists, less with your back. Quote
aarogb Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Sounds to me like you need to go to a chiropractor. Quote
Super User Raul Posted July 6, 2009 Super User Posted July 6, 2009 My back nope, my elbow and shoulder yup, hey but that 's only on the right side, they aren 't worthless yet, so let 's see ... I 'm 45, I 'm pretty shure I can squeeze 45 years out of my left arm so by the time I 'm done with them most probably I won 't care about fishing no more, I 'm confident that I will have to worry more about not trusting a fart.

done Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Where abouts does it hurt? I tend to get lower back pain when I do full day trout trips, but mine is because my posture sucks. You work out a lot? My brother pulled his back mowing the lawn when he was 25. That was because he had been power lifting (at sick levels) since he was 16. if it does not subside or keeps happening, i would take the other dudes advice and see a chiropractor or your doctor.

Super User roadwarrior Posted July 6, 2009 Super User Posted July 6, 2009 You need to see a "real doctor" or maybe even a specialist, not a chiropractor. Regardless of any improvement, at your age there may be an issue that requires attention NOW so it doesn't haunt you as you get older. Please, listen to Team Depends on this one...been there, done that. :-? Quote

Problem was when I went to visit the real doctor he said that along with the pills n 'stuff I would have to rest and stop fishing ----> you gotta be s*g me ! > I visited him to give me pills, fix me up so I can continue my fishing. : Quote
