How long ago did you injure your foot or have surgery on it?

Even though I am 7 months post op I still have some weakness in the forearm area at times but I don't let it limit what I do anymore. The only way for it to get stronger doing the things I want to do is to work it. I'm careful while doing so, but I don't let it limit me.

Good job Jimmy! way to loosen that arm up

Jimmy, glad you got to get out on the water again. You seem pretty stoked.

Last time I was out, I got a big lizard fish and did not want to touch him either, so I dropped him back down and pulled up a nice size but.

T-Bone - I have been going nuts not being able to get out like that. My arm feels great and I'm ready to get out again.

Dmrides - The last Lizard I caught could have been used for bait, I should have done that with it.

Makes me hesitant to eat something that would eat those nasty things!

Halibut tastes good. Pork chops taste good.

I think if we analyzed the diets of the foods we eat we may thing twice about what we are eating, so that being said, I'll just focus on how yummy the things I eat are.

It was about four weeks ago that I fractured my big toe leaving a fragment poking the side of my foot. Surgery was about two weeks ago today. Still can't wear a shoe without trouble. Yeah not using your arm won't strengthen it.
Skipping going out this Wednesday because of my lack of confidence with the foot and the big surf predicted. Fishing the bay from the rocks with my dad instead.

Have fun with the fishing from the rocks. One thing I have learned is even though it's frustrating to be able to get out, it's better to take your time and heal properly so that you don't re-injure your self to cause more delays. Here I am 2 days following my paddle out and nothing hurts except for muscles I haven't used in my shoulder area in a while.

You are right. It is hard to stay on the sofa when the weather is like this.
