Same age as when I had mine done. He should have done it over the winter. Would only be out 8 weeks or so.

Seems to be a real good guy. Hope he gets the relief needed and can come back full strength next season

Met him at Rayburn back in 2002 after one of the old Honey Hole Top 6 tournaments. Super good guy. Wish him a speedy recovery.

One of my favorites on the elites. Hope he makes a good recovery for next season and keeps fishing for a long time. Seems to be one of the most well liked guys out there among other pros.

Hopefully it goes well for him. It's human nature to put these off even when those who had it done tell you don't put it off.

He's a Crankin Machine! Good luck to him.

Probably the best fisherman I've met. Wish him a speedy and full recovery.

If you ever have the chance, ask Mark about his trip to the White House. It's hilarious!

That is one of the funniest true stories I've ever heard and he does an awesome job of telling it! I wish him the best!

Get better Mark, you will be missed. Spent a little time with him when he was at an event, talking CBs and applications. I suggested he might could do more, but who am I to say what he is doing is not right. HECK, he is a PROFESSIONAL and OVERALL GOOD GUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I mentioned the doodad to him and he didn't think it would work, oh well, such is life. GOD SPEED MARK!!!!!!!!!!! Get better quickly and keep yourself whole while you recover. He will probably also be missed at the pretournament CHURCH meetings, too.

Respectfully,

Thad Rains

When I was at the Classic, this year, I noticed he seemed a little "gimpy" when walking on stage. I hope everything goes well.....

And your point is??? It sounds like you are grinding an axe because a past classic champion and winner of almost $2 million didn't bridle your pony and ride away into the sunset.

Geeez, some people....
