But I'll be back at it sometime in December, when the Office should be getting hotter on the fishing. Y'all have a wonderful and fruitful holiday season forthcoming. I'll take all positive thoughts and prayers, hoping this second surgery on my right foot takes away most, if not all the pain.

Miss fishing, but I'll be back soon.

Prayers for you Big_CatEM.


I would rather die finding out there was no God than die finding out there is.

Fishing is very therapeutic and besides who uses their foot to fish?
Good Luck with the surgery!

Thanks everyone and sorry for the delay. I had the surgery Halloween morning, and the pain is REAL, but not my first rodeo. You guys are a great group and appreciate all the sentiments and offers.

I won't know anything regarding success of it until I get my stitches out 11/17, then moreso in December when I can drive again, etc.

To those also having surgery soon or awaiting (Hogon's "Pops" and my good buddy Horace aka Fishbonz), prayers with you guys as well on success and quality of life.

I enjoy being part of the crappie fraternity. It's my getaway if ya know what I mean.

God bless!

Prayers for your surgery and a quick recovery. I will be out of business for a bit myself. If all goes well I should be out of the hospital 4 or 5 days after the procedure. I hope to be back on the water by the last week of November.

Best wishes to you as well, Mr. Dutch. The crappie won't be going anywhere, so we should see some hanging back for us come Winter crappie season. Prayers my friend.

Thanks Jim! The problem alies with driving. It's my right foot and I've been put on a driving moratorium for 4-5 weeks, meaning early December at the earliest. So I would need a ride share, which I do not expect, as I live just a few miles SW of downtown Keller.

Hey Eric! Not a problem, I will come to your house and pick you up.
And as always, I'll bring the donuts!
Just give me a call the day before.
Might even give you a ride back home depending on whether you out fish me or not...

Crope, ain't that the truth? Thanks for the well wishes. Pain is diminishing and though I won't be able to drive, it's back to work by this weekend. Life doesn't stop.

Thank you and yeah, some funny and good guys in here. Will be back plunking a jig at The Office in December. I'm not going to ask him to drive all the way out here and back, but his sentiment was the nice thing.
