Tapout..NWR Bash...Pungo...WaWa...Ozark Trail

If TapOut can't fish the bash, and he now lives south of Dam Neck, and Pungo Pizza is on his way, and WaWa is just up the road from Bob's...If we pitch in for a few of those 30/40 oz tumblers from Walmart.......doesn't it seem reasonable that George could sleep in and hit Pungo Pizza for a few pies or knots and then swing into WaWa and fill up a few of those SS tumblers with hot chocolate for us cold, weary souls for a little meet up at Northwest River park dock/pier about lunch time?

That is the best idea I have ever heard from you Ranger Danger! I'm sure Tap would fall right in for his crappie.com buddies. What a guy!

I like the way your brain works. A portable heater to stand next to would be nice, too.

Dayton is excited because today is Betty White's birthday.

It is a bummer that I can not fish for a while. 7 more weeks in a sling and even then, I may not be able to launch a boat, we'll see. I will however send warm thoughts your way that day. I am sure it will be cold and windy.

Daggonit! Welp Dayton, guess it's back to the drawing board.CF

Ed, no reason you can't bring aboard a gas grill on that aircraft carrier you just restored. Or maybe that pot contraption you make your low country boil in.

I think he should just stay at the ramp and cook a pig, it's not like he's going to catch anything any way!:Rofl:Rofl:Rofl

Can't cook a pig Boscoe so you just gonna have to worry about my one perch that is bigger than yours!:biggrin:biggrin:biggrin

I heard Mr. Tapout is going to go for the the Full Monte and buy a food truck to cook everyone lunch.

The Special? "Tap's Kung POW!!!!!! Chicken"

Oh no!!! I don't want Tap to plan my menu. He a health nut. No Sugar, No Salt, No Fat. I think there is a half of a WaWa sub in my boat left from last year. Should be some oatmeal cream pies and if it comes to survival mode, Toastchee Peanut Butter crackers.

Its OK Dayton. Just don't eat the sub left over from last Year!CF

George if you cant launch a boat by March, I'll come get you. Surely you can fish with a cane pole one handed. Ill even take the fish off the hook. As many times as you toted me to Buggs and wouldn't except gas money, that's the least I could do.

Thanks Russell. I'm not sure when I am going to be back on the water. They want me in this sling until March 6th. I will know more on Feb. 21 when I see the doc at my 6 week mark. My biggest concern would be accidentally falling in, which I have never come close to, but if I did I would be sure to jack up the tears that they repaired. I had to write a check for $1.130.78 and that's with BC/BS insurance, I would hate to tear things up and waste my money.

George,

I had similar surgery on right shoulder ( two tendons rebuilt and bone spur removed). First couple days were miserable after surgery then things steadily improved. As long as you keep that sling on and in place you really can't hurt your shoulder. I leaned to do a lot with left arm. You can also use the wrist and hand on your repaired shoulder just keep the sling on. I even took a bad tumble while puling out an old fence and was ok (arm in sling). The therapy is very painful after sling comes off but if you work at it you can get full range of motion and strength back. I am 58 years old and my repaired shoulder is as good as it ever was.

Same here, 2 torn tendons and a bone spur. The only difference is that I am 5 years younger. How did you sleep at night? I cannot fall asleep with this giant sling on.

LOL, too many of us on here have had this surgery. I'm a little behind Tap in the recovery, sleeping in recliner is tough. Sorry about hijacking the thread. Hopefully will make it to one of these bashes at the NW one day. Love dem yellow perch!!!!

I slept in a recliner the first few nights. Luckily I can sleep on my back or either side so it did not take to long until I slept ok at night. I followed the doctors orders and slept with the sling on.
