Sorry to hear that. Sounds like you aren't missing anything at the coast, yet.
 
Sorry to hear that. On the bright side, if there was a year not to fish it might be this one. Take care and good luck with your surgery.
 
Go fishing anyway. Just leave the rod in the holder! I've been known to do that myself on occasion due to the bursitis in my shoulders.

Sorry to hear about your shoulder! Nothing worse than a sore shoulder!
 
Caty...really sorry to hear NMFF for the year. I agree...you should still go and just watch the pole sitting in the holder. You could always drag the fish with the boat and bring it on board once you have drowned it.

Hope you both are having fun and we hope to see you at Bellingham!!!

Red Fox was posting something about electric reels.... Maybe?

So sorry to hear that one, Caty. Big bummer.
 
If my understanding of law is correct, at least Alaska law, the person who first holds the rod after a fish is hooked own the fish. In that case pick it up with the right hand and hand it to someone.

I thought I was going the same route but some physical therapy and strength exercises have postponed it. Halibut fishing doesn't seem to hurt it, but skiing was hard on it but that come back for a few months.
 
Caty,

Yes, it sucks when you can't do something you really enjoy. It just shouldn't happen to a nice person like you. We send our best wishes for a full and speedy recovery. If you can't be fishing, sure hope you can still be out enjoying the boat... time on the water is good for the soul.

Best wishes,
Jim & Joan
 
Thanks everyone for your kind words. Pretty much every movement is a pain and a challenge right now being down an arm :wink: They did get my appt with the surgeon moved from 7/10 to this coming Friday :thup and I have some time-released drugs in a patch, so all-in-all life's good :mrgreen: My coworker just had the same surgery . . . wonder if they see a pattern?

Caty-

Sorry to hear about your torn rotator cuff, pain, and surgery!

Isn't that usually a Major League Baseball Pitcher's injury?

You been serving up those jelly beans to Steve on the fast pitch overhand lately?

Get steve to make you a reel out of a stationary bicycle and you can crank 'em in in the "Look ma, no hands! style.

"Enjoy" the pain relief, and good luck with the surgery!

If you run out of "goofy" pills, I can fix ya' up in a hurry!

Joe. :teeth :thup
 
OK, this year surgeon, next year sturgeon! All the best for a speedy, total recovery.
 
Caty, bad news! Sorry to hear about this...buck up, there is always next year!
 
Caty,

Glad they moved the date up for you. I wish you a speedy recovery!
 
You're in our thoughts -- best luck on a quick recovery.
 
Wow, one more MRI and a neurologist test later, they've found the pain is actually coming from a nerve in the base of my neck (spine) where a growth is, as he put it "smushing" it. They are scheduling for a biopsy, CT scan and bone study at OHSU -- I'm to frickin onery to have cancer -- they've looked before and can't find any, so I'm pulling for more of the same! :wink:

I'll post as I know more.

Caty

PS Poor Steve is now having to make sandwiches for me too -- poor guy!
 
I should've practiced onery until I had it perfected! Steve said he didn't think there could be any more perfect :wink:

Seems I have a small tumor on my lung (size of a quarter) along with the mass in my spine at the base of my neck....biopsy and more photo ops upcoming and they'll figure out what to do to treat it.

We're outa here as soon as they've had their way with the "C" and North to Alaska! :wink:
 
Caty & Steve

You have both Jo-Lee and my stomach's doing flip flops, so hard to imagine being in your shoes. No platitudes from us cause we know all to well bad things happen to good people. Life for sure isn't always fair you can only play the hand your dealt the best you can. Hoping the best possible outcome for you Caty and yes then off to Alaska.

Jay & Jo-Lee
 
CatyMae – you will be in my prayers.

Attitude seems to be a big part of overcoming obstacles like you have and you seem to have the right attitude for doing so.

Good luck and I hope to see you and Steve on the water soon.
