Title: It's really getting to me
Post by: kylemc on September 25, 2007, 14:35:32 PM

Well it has been 128 days since a have fished.It is starting to effect me mentaly and my liver is shot from pain meds and moonshine.I have become very short and ill temperd towards everyone.

I started to go over to TXfly's ridge and just lay some leader out for the brookies but I would just fall and mess it up again.I never dreamed of it being this hard to not fish or how much rivers and streams effect my overall attitude.

I have been in physical theropy for 3 weeks now and my range of motion is much better.The pt say maybe November for fishing and said the oars would still be out until further notice.

I NEED TO GET ON THE WATER BAD!!!

Thanks for letting me whine.

Hang in there Kyle and resist the temptation to fish. I know when I snuck out and I wasn't supposed to, I slipped on some ice and landed hard on my shoulder. Luckily, no further damage but it scared the hell out of me.

PS Share the meds!

I am sitting in Chicago, waiting to come back home. No fishing here, and from what I am seeing of the weather, no rain for the western mountians of NC either.

Sumbeech!

I feel for you Kyle! I really do. But you and I know very well that if you rest now, there will be more fishing in the future. If you dont, who knows, that's a bit grim, but a reality.

No need to get concerned about it. The fishing is bad now anywho without any rain. So, lay back and plan for upcoming fishing trips.

Kyle,
I feel your pain. I've only been trout fishing for brookies up here in the SNP once since April. We've been dry all year. I sure hope you take the time to recover completely so that you won't have any set backs. It's gonna take years for the streams to recover from this drought. :'( Here's a few pictures of one of my favorite streams that I took a hike to today. This stream used to be just full of brookies and a few nice ones to boot. In the mile or so of the stream bed I walked I only found 3 or 4 pools that held water and none were deeper than 6 inches.
