Finally got to go and catch one

[Dbllunger]

For the last two months I have been rehabbing a rotator cuff surgery and fishing was impossible. If you've had the surgery you know. Some of you know that rockfish fishing is my thing I love and I normally do it a lot. So yesterday a buddy took me in his boat as I'm still a ways away from being able to launch and operate a boat. Only managed one fish and it was a smaller one compared to what we normally catch but being able to be there, hookup and to be able to handle getting it to the boat was priceless. I'm back!!!

Congrats. Glad you're getting back to what you like...

Good fish! I'd love to try that some day - I just don't have a clue where to start trying to figure it out.

Got rotator cuff surgery coming up July 26. No walleye trolling for a while.

Congratulations on getting back to it. I had surgery on my foot in January and I'm still worried about deer season being a thing for me.

You have my sympathy. Tough at first but absolutely do your pt and home exercises faithfully.

Man I hope you can make it for deer season. Definitely no bow hunting for me this year.

Congrats on getting back after em'!

Great advice on the PT… I was back shooting my 50# pull long bow with in 6 months after my full bicep tear surgery .

Fell in a truck at work May 16. They put me through 4 weeks of therapy. It's no better so now its surgery. Will definitely do what it takes to get back.

Very cool man! They are catching them pretty good here right now, but I still haven't went. Don't overdo the shoulder!

Good eater right there. Just put one about the same size in the freezer from last night's soak. Congrats

Awesome pictures and a great show tenacity. I'm just curious if it affects the way you work. I would assume extractions and the like could be more physically taxing.

Nice. Glad you getting better

Fortunately I'm right handed and it was left shoulder. For about 3 weeks it was nothing but patient exams and gradually started working easy things and now I can perform any work I have.

Glad you're healing and got to fish .

Nice fish! Great pics!
