He is fine and will fish at the Delta in two weeks and is expected to be near 100%. After suffering two weeks with pain in his right leg, Mike Iaconelli had successful surgery Monday night to remove blood pooling in his calf. A day after finishing 12th in the Diet Mtn Dew Bassmaster Elite at Lake Guntersville, Iaconelli was going under the knife at the The Orthopaedic Center in Huntsville, Ala. On Tuesday, he was back on the road to meet up with his family, and with some rest said he should be near 100 percent for the Delta tournament in two weeks. http://www.bassmaster.com/news/ike-goes-under-knife-0

Awe, I was hoping that he was gonna have his hands amputated and wouldn't be able to fish anymore That's a strange thing to say when someone is going in to surgery. I've met and hung out with Iaconelli a number of times. I wouldn't say I know him well, but he's been cool every time I've been around him both in front and away from the crowds. I've never seen another pro angler who spends as much time with kids and he always makes time to take a photo with a fan. Nothin' worse than hatin' on a guy when he's suffering.
The solution to any problem - work, love, money, whatever - is to go fishing, and the worse the problem, the longer the trip should be. --John Gierach

I'm sorry to hear that your son will grow up breaking things and having temper tantrums well into his 30's.

I think he's ok for a Yankee. I'd rather share a boat with him than about 100 other pros I can think of. I think his "tantrums"'are funny.
Get well Ike! And learn to use a swim bait!

Many of the guys who choose professional sports to make a living are wound up and passionate. We even see freak-outs in golf. Iaconelli has had a few blow-ups, but so have a number of other professional anglers. Not sure why he gets hammered so hard about it.

With no hands he could squeeze the rod in his cheeks and turn the reel with his dangle and still out fish you guys.
Kicking a fellow outdoorsman when he's down is low why not focus the negativity on some PETA folks or something.

I don't know the guy but I just don't like the he acts on camera. He might be a nice guy and all but not my favorite. I'm not going to bash him, I'm just going to wish him well.
