Thread: Getting old sucks

Hope things go well if the surgery is done. Fishing may be ok, but you may need to round up a youngun somewhere to pull on the boat, and net the great bigguns.

Loading the boat will not be a problem. Getting out of the silly thing might be, but I'll throw a step ladder in there and get out. I've had this done to my right knee back in 1987. Got 8 weeks of fishing then due to the damage to the knee cap. I was a little younger then, but I think I'll be able to manage.

As far as netting those big ones, I may just fish Poinsett so I don't need a net!

I'll help, I'll help

Hey bud they doing ya laparoscopically? Hope all goes well.

Get well soon and good luck on the fishing.

Had a shoulder done in 2012. Best thing I did, but it ruined fishing for 3 months!

I need BOTH knees done, and a hip. But I ain't gonna...........(yet). Best of luck.

Two words for you:

If he doesn't work on me, it ain't gettin' worked on. He's the best there is!

Good luck with the surgery. Hope it doesn't slow down your fishing too much.

It will be a scope when they do it. They are trying other options as of right now. I'm sure I will have to do it before it's over due to the tear.

No big deal. I've had the right knee done. That was a long time ago and I'm sure it's not as tough now. I'm not scared of the scope.

I did find out that since it is the tear and a cyst removal (which must not be that bad of a repair) I should only be out of work for 2 weeks. I can swing that.
