I quit..
Give up not going to do it anymore.Anyone with a new back for sale?
It stinks when your not fishing because of pain. Doctor has had me on enough pain pills the last few years to kill a Crappie
Its doing somewhat of its job. But sure keeps you from doing anything. They did tell us good news, I had a 70% chance of not walking again if I let them screw with my back again. So 30% chance I would not be in a wheel chair. But been thinking even in a wheel chair if I'm not hurting so bad I can't get around. It may be better than now. Could fish out of my boat with help in a wheel chair.
It just sucks to be able to fish 4 or 5 days a week. But can't because of the pain. Or just will not take a chance on driving for the meds. Buddy of mine came and hooked the boat up a few weeks back. Showed up and took me to the lake. Loved it. But man it sucks....
Sorry will get off my pity party . You would think after being disabled for getting close to 19 years. It would not get to you. But man what I would give to be able to work again. Go fishing and not hurt. Or just have a normal life. Guys and Gals do not take it for granted.
Happy New Years and may every crappie be a keeper.

Shiloh, hurt my back a week ago by lifting some metal I bought. Didn't look that heavy. Guess I'm getting old. Took about a week of Meds and heating pad. I couldn't imagine being that way for life. It was miserable. If ya ever want somebody to take you give me a hollar.
Lost my dad Labor Day weekend, best fishing buddy ever. There were a lot of times he couldn't go fishing bc of his back pain. Worked hard all his life and retired and went down hill in three years, never able to enjoy his retirement due to his lungs and back.
A long story short, we should all enjoy everyday as though it is our last fishing trip.

Sorry to hear about that. Back problems are absolutely terrible. I hear way too many of these stories. And with a bad back myself, I dread the day that I can't fish because of it. I feel terrible for you. Hopefully there will be a day it turns around for the better for you.

Being in a boat in rough water probably wreaks havoc on an already bad back. Sorry for your pain

I meant to behave, but there were just way too many other options available at the time.

Prayers going up for you!I was fortunate to have had back surgery and it worked out for me!It was a last resort.Have they spinal blocked your back before? I had a friend that went pain free for 3 yrs. after a block.Mine was the 4th lumbar vertebrae.It did serious nerve damage to my left leg and foot.I'm praying God will give you relief!

Know the feeling I take enough pain med to knock a horse out and it doesn't phase it.Was told if I had spine surgery I had a good chance of not waking up.Working on some new meds sure hope they work.
