After waiting all winter for spring to come

Started getting sick Saturday morning,Sunday morning made a trip to local er,Next stop was emergency surgery.My left bowel and entestines had dropped down into my scrotum,Surgury went well and was back home Wednesday evening,Now,doc said not to lift anything over 5 pounds for six weeks,I told the doctor I would never catch a crappie over 5 pounds but he said no lifting of anything.So after waiting all winter for the spring spawn I'm stuck at home,,Talk about rotten luck.Guess I will have to just work through it with a little bank and pier fishing but that's not the same,,Quess that's life but you can't keep a crappie fisherman down for long,,,Wish me luck

sorry to hear that Hillbilly,,get well soon

I hope you get well soon and you can get back after the crappie's.

Good Luck and get well soon!

Hoping you a speedy recovery

Like everyone said get well soon and I hope you do get a 3 lb. crappie to boot.:highfive

Hopefully you'll be back on the water sooner than that. Good luck with your recovery, but definitely pay attention to the Doc also. They usually don't give bad advice.

Get well soon Hillbilly, best of luck to you!!!!!

Wishing you a speedy recovery!!!!!

Best wishes to you!

get well soon, my doc told me yesterday I had to slow down, no if's and's or but's! Told me I need to go fishing and not do much of anything else for about 2 weeks, I didn't argue with her!

Sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do. Don't hurt yourself and get well soon. Fresh air has been proven to make stitches heal quicker.

Sorry to hear you are out for awhile Hillbilly, I will be lookin for you and the wife as I cross the bridge to know when you are back to fishing. If I hook into that two lber I will put it back and let ya know where to find it when ya get better!!!! Lookin forward to seeing the both of you back on the water, and swaping stories of where we think the might be for the day. Wish you a speedy recovery!!!:highfive

Get well soon Mac, need you on the water

Hi Hillbilly. Sorry to hear about your plight but glad it was no worse. Bank fishing is better than no fishing. Get well soon.
