I am not happy with he had to tell me. Not enough blood circulation to save the

The surgery will be done when my kidneys are stable enough for the surgery. I

Hi Tony,

Bad messages have often positive components. Even if the situation is bad and 
horrible, they can do something to improve it. And today, if just a foot is 
missing - I know about more horrible things.

Even with a missing foot, you might be able to fish from the dock.

I wish you all the best and you are in my prayers. Send my best wishes also to 
Dot.

much choice. I have a close fishing buddy who just turned 76 who has lung 
cancer (non smoker) and is in a very bad way indeed. He has also had several 
strokes and cannot swallow food unless it is in puree form. Since the last 
stoke he can no longer use his ipad and his speech is severely impacted. A very 
sad situation.

 

I feel for you Tony but you don’t want to chance gangrene. Sorry to be so blunt

 Its still a wait and see game to determine what will happen with them.  His

 He still asks that nobody call him because he has difficulty in talking.

[VFB] Update

2017-07-29 Thread Allan Fish

Here's a great update on Tony & Dot Spezio's son Charles:


 Robert Spezio
 

 shared Gina Spezio Gaskill
 
's
 post
 .


Gina Spezio Gaskill 
 




I just want to thank our friends and family and even all of you who do 
not even know my brother, Charlie, for all of your thoughts and prayers. 
I can assure you they are being heard. Charlie is progressing each day 
and he is now even speaking. He still has a very long hard road ahead of 
him, but is already doing what we were originally told would never 
happen because of his brain injury. Without getting into too much 
personal stuff, today Charlie proved that not only is God hearing the 
prayers, but so is he. He said something today that could only have come 
from him feeling all the love and feeling the power of God. THANK YOU 
ALL AGAIN. Our family is so grateful for all of you <3

Okay Bob.  Told you it'd take a bit before I got a round tuit.  But

(A-) FISH-ing can be hazardous to your health.


We’ve all heard of folks falling in and getting hurt, even drowning, 
or maybe falling and spraining an ankle on the way to/from a river.  I 
may have come upon a new peril.  I slightly pulled a muscle in my 
right arm several months ago.  It would get sore if I did anything 
heavy but otherwise was just sore enough to be a minor nuisance.  
About six weeks go, one of my buddies (yes, Jimmy, I DO have some 
friends!  g)  invited me to go to see if the white bass run had 
started yet on the Whitewater River upstream from Brookville Lake in 
Eastern Indiana. 



I'll make an even longer story short:  We found the fish.  My 
chartreuse over white Clouser with extra heavy eyes did the trick (I'm 
too cheap to buy a sinking line!). 



I finally had to quit after landing fifteen of those feisty fish 
because my right arm hurt so badly.  I should have quit after catching 
six, but how can you quit when you're catching one every other cast?  
That was six weeks ago.  Unfortunately, it still hurts that almost 
that badly.  I can’t cast at all.  In fact, I can't hardly lift 
anything much heavier than a cup of coffee. 



I'm seeing my family doc later this week and hopefully a good shot of 
cortisone will help it out.


Am I whining or complaining?  No way.  I’m bragging!  It was worth it!

[VFB] Update on Jimmy D

2015-06-09 Thread Jimmy D. Moore
Hi Guys:. 

Hope all is well with you.  Here's an update on me. I sent  some of you 
an earlier  email and I owe you an apology. This goes back to breaking 
my ankle on the Gunnison four years ago  The ankle never has been worth 
a toot since then.I  have good days and bad days. Plus the blood clot 
that has to be medicated daily. I also have Essential Tremor, NOT 
Parkinsons,  A shot glasss of bourbon a day seems to help, as per the 
docs suggestion.  ;-)The tremor doesan't affect my fly tying..
etc..  More of an aggravation than anything else. I guess you might say 
I've had my cup running over these last two years


Members of my Rotary club weren't aware of the tremor until I told them 
during my program on rattlesnakess.  ;-) The worse part of the deal is 
the atrophying of the muscles in my calves and pain in my feet which 
keeps me from exercising. This is not part of the essential tremor, just 
another rock in the road for me to navigate  from when I broke my 
ankle flyhing the Gunnison River in Colorado. Long story It's Osteo 
Arthritis in my feet. and torn misisiniscus, from skiing.. This is what 
makes it impossible to wade or play golf anymore. I could add more 
stuff but not really important.  The bottom line is that my balance is 
shot. It, Takes two wading staffs and that's a bundle what with my chest 
pack and the other must haves


Jody is fine.  A tougher woman you'll never see. Thank God she's in 
great health snd a 12 year breast cancer.


Take Care.

JIM

The ankle  calf issues can be addressed, but balance issues are another story. 
I have no cartilage in one knee, but I’ve been taking glucosamine  chondroitin 
supplements  they’ve helped dramatically w/ the arthritis in all my joints, 
including my hands. Maybe it’s time for a drift boat instead of wadingJ

Thanks for the update, Jimmy - we're now paying the price for our 
youthful escapades.  g


Glad to hear Jodie is okay.  After all, someone has to look after you!  
You've got Jodie and I've got Martha.  Couldn't get along without her.


I'm having minor difficulties myself with pulled muscles in my knees and 
arms.  My left knee feels like it has a piece of loose cartilage in 
itoops.artificial knees don't have cartilage! g


Long story on how I hurt my right arm.  I'll send it to you off-list.

Take care,

[VFB] Update on Jimmy D i don't normally say much about myself, but a bunch of you asked.

2014-05-14 Thread Jimmy D. Moore
 Not much has changed since my last update.  The tremor doesn't affect 
fly tying and everyday use of my hands, When I get frustrated is when 
acts up. A hand-wringing motion.  Cup of coffee or plate, No trembling 
their either. I do lose my balance once in a while which is makes taking 
a shower difficult.so I'm having a bench built in the back directly 
across from shower head. No fall in the shower yet, but it's just a 
matter of time unless I get some muscle tone back.


Now, to my feet. good days, bad days. I only use the cane on steps.and 
out in the yard and a walker on occassion. The big callus where the 
posterior tibi-tendon connects the heel and big toe finally decided to 
shed some of the callus. Don't know how this happened, but I'm very 
grateful and makes walking so much easier. Hopefully it'll shed more 
callus build-up.Most of my leg/foot problem were caused by lack of 
exercise resulting in atrophyed leg muscles.FROM WHEN I BROKE MY ANKLE 
ON THE GUNNISON AND SPENT 6 MOS, IN CAST.So far my diagnosis is 
'essential tremor'Not Parkinsons yet, but could morph into PK.  Also 
have osteo arthritis in both ankles.
I'm still amazed that my hand can be trembling and I can 'will' it to 
stop and it does. Go figure :-P   Most people never notice it.


Just finished 6 months of taking Camudin for clot in thigh So far, so 
good, the doc is seeing what he wants to see. Sidelight, lost 15 pounds 
because of my limited diet. The doc did let me off for christmas dinner 
and boy, I Pigged out. Now, I'm using my nautiilis knock off to help

regain muscle in my legs, etc,

Enjoy your week.and don't worry about me. I'm hanging in there like a 
rusty fish hook.

P.S. The tremor dosen't affect my typing.

JIMMY D

P.S. The blood clot was caused from wearing the $1,000 boot too tight 
and cutting circulation. There's more, but

I've taken up enough of your 'time'

Re: [VFB] Update on my Shoulder for those interested

2013-07-01 Thread Gary Webb
Excellent!

I guess you don't need this exercise routine.

 EXERCISE FOR PEOPLE OVER 60


1. Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty
of room at each side.

 2. With a 5-lb potato bag in each hand, extend your arms straight out from
your sides and hold them there as long as you can; try to reach a full
minute and then relax.

3. Each day you'll find that you can hold this position for just a
bit longer. After a couple of weeks, move up to 10-lb potato bags.

 4. Then try 50-lb potato bags and then eventually try to

get to where you can lift a 100-lb potato bag in each hand and hold your
arms straight for more than a full minute (I'm at this level).

 5. After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each bag.

 to keep it moving and only sling it when

 1. Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty

  2. With a 5-lb potato bag in each hand, extend your arms straight out from 
 your sides and hold them there as long as you can; try to reach a full minute

 3. Each day you'll find that you can hold this position for just a

Betreff: [VFB] Update on my Shoulder for those interested

Had an appointment with the VA in ABQ yesterday, 6 days after the surgery to
see how things were going and get
stitches out. I swear, one of those stitches on the back over the Deltoid
felt like it ran all the way down to my
left great toe. Doc Lesko was more than pleased with my progress. His
intention was to evaluate and schedule me for
physical therapy after examination. Mind you I set up my own therapy to keep
the mussel structure from getting
stiff and work it a bit since there were no clear instructions other than to
keep it moving and only sling it when
necessary to alleviate pain. Doc Lesko was impressed that my passive range
of motion was nearly 100% and my active
ROM was about 60%, (50% greater than expected). He ask about my régime and
workout times and how I came up with the
ideas for it. Told him went back to my Books and did some research on
mussel movement and uses and worked from
there.

He said he would see me back in 4 weeks and was not going to waste my time
with scheduling a therapist since I was
3 weeks ahead of where I was expected to be in passive and active range of
motion. Did want me to refrain from any
lifting or stress workouts using the biceps for fear of damaging the tendon
attachment to the soft tissue after
being snipped.

Guess having all those books over the years and the varied interest I have
help paid off in time and recovery.
Never said I had a limited interest in subjects, but being a Jack of All
Trades paid off I think. Still have
discomfort and it hurts after hauling hay or feed, but life goes on. At
least I only have to move the big ice chest
one time from the car to the house, thank you Lord.

[VFB] Update on Amanda

2012-04-22 Thread Jimi AKA Desert Eagle
Well according to Amanda about her surgery Friday, It went well, Eh, I'm
really sleepy and a little nauseous. Sore as all Get out but good. They got
everything out and it looks clear I think. I have another appointment to go
over the lab results in a couple of weeks. I had one incision in my belly
button, another lower and they went in where I had the appendix surgery long
ago.. Those are quotes from text messages from her over the last 3 days.

Her mom and I are finally breathing normal, (have been holding our breath
off and on since thanksgiving), because she said that apparently she is
cancer free now. However, we still have to wait for the labs and then we
have a couple more questions for her.

I have 2 days at the VA this week for my surgical procedures so Theresa and
I will hold back anything we can after that so we can try to keep a reserve
ready in case we have to make a flying trip down to see her.

Theresa and myself, on behalf of Amanda and ourselves want to thank everyone
for the prayers for her. God has worked through experienced hands and the
initial prognosis at this time is good.

We will endeavor to keep everyone posted on her progress, and again, thank
you everyone for your prayers and other help through this time.

Jimi, Theresa and in Abstentia, Amanda

can be, on any pretence, raised in the United States.”

The instruments, by which [government] must act, are either the AUTHORITY
of the Laws or FORCE. If the first be destroyed, the last must be
substituted; ... and where this becomes the ordinary instrument of
government, there is an end to LIBERTY. --Alexander Hamilton

[VFB] Update on Amanda

2012-03-15 Thread Jimi AKA Desert Eagle
Sorry folks I have not updated everyone on Amanda, Things have been 
Interesting around here to say the least.

She refuses to, and demands that everyone that talks to her not us the C, 
(Cancer), word at all in addressing her. She refuses to talk to us at all 
about it. Her comment is, I'm Fine, don't bully me. She has said that she 
will refuse the Chemical, Cut and Burn approach to it.

Dad has started a never ending search for information, and alternatives. 
Thanks to those that gave me input and links to information. The hard part 
will be presenting any information to Amanda, and getting here to at least 
look at it and consider it. For me, many late nights and early mornings 
spent researching and downloading information, reading it, and printing a 
bunch of it out to put into note books so I am not tied to the computer all 
the time and I can go out to the medicine wheel garden we are making for 
quiet and solitude. Best I can do now.

Theresa was heading down there to see her yesterday, but got shut down and 
turned back because Amanda said she did not have time to talk to her mom, or 
me right now. She says she is busy studying for the MCAT test and doesn't 
have time for US right now. Theresa was heeding down there today and again, 
curt, don't bother me texts turned her around again.

She has Promised to come down Thursday and go back Sunday, so we put some 
money in her account for her travel. One thing that really has us concerned 
is that She doesn't like to drive or make road trips anymore, For anyone 
that knows her, she used to love to travel, there was no distance to far for 
her and her friends to go. This is beyond a 180, it is totally out of 
character for her and has her mom and me not only concerned, but incredibly 
worried.

We do know that she had to get All New Clothes, she went from a size 5/6 
to a 1/0 between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Needless to say, that was a 
shock to us at Christmas, so she had to tell us a bit, There is a 
possibility was all she would say.

I am going to turn it over to Theresa and let her fill you in on what she 
knows. She tells me, but for some reason I am having a hard time 
comprehending what has happened, and the only way I adjust to it is to find 
something to try and keep my hands and mind busy. Theresa cries a lot, I 
tend to hold it in until I cant anymore and have to go to the north side of 
the property so I can ell a bit and cry it out. A dad should never have the 
opportunity to outlive his daughter. I haven't given up, but it is hard for 
me when I don't have answers to needed questions.

Here is Theresa, I need to take a brake for a bit. BTW, I can not tell you 
all how much your prayers and well wishes are felt and appreciated.


jimi has covered much of it.she and I were texting pretty heavy 
yesterday-I got a little irritated at her and kind of cornered her 
somewhat. She says mom it's not as bad as everyone thinks.the docs 
aren't concerned about the spots on the liver and the brain.I am going 
to have surgery and I will let you know when I am going to the doc next.Of 
course I was caught off guard with this and I didn't ask her what the 
surgery was going to be on. so we continued texting and all and I I said 
Amanda can you put me on your hippa so I will no what's going onshe in 
no uncertain terms said she doesn't want me on itok..What am I to think? 
She and I were so close andthis year has been rough with us---I would love 
for us to be close againespecially nowwell that's all I  know  
Christie my friend is going to Abilene next week and if Amanda doesn't come 
home Thursday I will go up next week with Christie.that is just all 
there is to it. it is past time for a face to face.

Re: [VFB] Update on Amanda

2012-03-15 Thread Chuck Alexander
Theresa and Jimi: As the father of five kids and four grandkids, I cannot 
begin to imagine what you must be going through. And I was keep you ALL in 
my thoughts and prayers, and especially your daughter. As for Amanda, I know 
you want to know everything, and try to help in anyway you can, but as hard 
as it may be, you may just have to let her come to terms with it, and then 
she'll open up to you I'm sure. I may be totally wrong, but that's what it 
sounds like to me that she is going through right now.  I cannot imagine 
what Amanda must be going through, having a doc tell you this and at that 
age to boot. I'm sure her mind is spinning a million miles an hour, and she 
is probably going through one of the five stages of grief, and that being 
denial. Ppl think if I don't think or talk about it, it will go away. 
And while I know every minute, hour, and day counts towards getting her the 
best care possible, I'm afraid you're going to let her get through  this 
denial stage on her own, and unfortunately, in her own time.  I'm saying 
these things as an outsider looking in and can see things like this 
probably clearer than you can right now, and I know that must make is  a 
thousand times harder on you guys as well.


I did, however, have a quarter sized spot  on my left lung  about 20 
years ago that my doc at the time was sure was cancer,  and God  healed it 
just like that, am I'll be praying that he'll doo the same for your 
daughter. Or, that he'll allow the docs to use their knowledge that HE gave 
them, to find a cure and have it happen that way.  There is a caring bunch 
of ppl on this list and I can tell you that many prayers will be going up on 
behalf of the whole family as I said, but especially for Amanda. God Bless, 
Chuck, Billie, and Family

Well folks, I just thought I'd bring you up to date as to what is happening
with me.

 

First I'd like to thank all who prayed for me while I was in the hospital..

 

I had atrial fibrilation and after three days they got my heart beating
properly.

 

My wife had a family reunion in Lake City, Co. the very next week so we
rented a car and drove. Spent the night in Cortex, Co. and drove to Lake
City the next AM.

 

Only got to fish one day because I just was not feeling good enough to leave
the cabin for several days.

 

My two brothers-in-law and a nephew and I  got to fish Lake Fork on Friday
for a few hours. Caught one nice 12 rainbow.

 

Felt real bad on Saturday so I stayed in the cabin while they all went jeep
4 wheelin.

 

Felt pretty good on Sunday and drove home, straight thru.

 

Went back to the Doctor on Tuesday and I was back in A-fib. He sent me right
away to the Cardiologist.

 

He gave me a new prescription and by the evening , my heart was beating
properly.

 

I have since been released to go back to work but decided that the message
God sent me , telling me to slow down was the tight thing to do.

 

I am now officially retired, but I got a part time job at the Bass Pro shop
and I will be working in the White River fly shop..

 

Tough assignment, but I guess that is what I am supposed to do with all my
extra time.I know but some one has to do it...hahahahahaha

   Well folks, I just thought I’d bring you up to date as to what is
 happening with me.

 First I’d like to thank all who prayed for me while I was in the hospital..

 I had atrial fibrilation and after three days they got my heart beating
 properly.

 My wife had a family reunion in Lake City, Co. the very next week so we
 rented a car and drove. Spent the night in Cortex, Co. and drove to Lake
 City the next AM.

 Only got to fish one day because I just was not feeling good enough to
 leave the cabin for several days.

 My two brothers-in-law and a nephew and I  got to fish Lake Fork on Friday
 for a few hours. Caught one nice 12” rainbow.

 Felt real bad on Saturday so I stayed in the cabin while they all went jeep
 4 wheelin.

 Felt pretty good on Sunday and drove home, straight thru.

 Went back to the Doctor on Tuesday and I was back in A-fib. He sent me
 right away to the Cardiologist.

 He gave me a new prescription and by the evening , my heart was beating
 properly.

 I have since been released to go back to work but decided that the message
 God sent me , telling me to slow down was the tight thing to do.

 I am now officially retired, but I got a part time job at the Bass Pro shop
 and I will be working in the White River fly shop..

 Tough assignment, but I guess that is what I am supposed to do with all my
 extra time.I know but some one has to do it...hahahahahaha


 Thank You,
 Alan Di Somma

 You know your a redneck when your Grandmother has 'ammo' on her Christmas

I am in about the same boat.
I went to Little Rock to see about my knees last Wednesday. My left knee is 
bone to bone
the right that was replaced twice has a damaged knee cap that will have
to be reconstructed. Will be three months recuperating on that. He will
not do both at one time because of my age. I plan to hold off till
winter if I can.

Glad to hear you all had a good time at Sowbug.  For my part, I'm glad I didn't 
go, because me knee continues to grow worse.  I'm not good for more than 50 
yards, and river fishing is out of the question. 

The knee replacement surgery is scheduled for April 25th, and that will be, I 
hope, the beginning of a new era. I haven't had a good knee for 15 years, which 
has limited hiking or any distant walking, but  the Doc says I should be good 
to go for any kind of walking once every thing has healed up.

There is a bright side, though.  It turns out that fishing from a kick boat is 
perfect exercise for my bad knee!  I have been out about four times on a little 
community fishery (Kaysville Ponds, for those who live in Utah), having a ball 
catching trout on pheasant tail nymphs.  It is kind of sight fishing, the fish 
rise, and I cast the nymphs to them and strip slowly. Dry flies don't get much 
action, but I usually catch the fish with the PT

 The pond is just a hundred feet or so from the parking lot, so getting my kick 
boat there and back isn't bad. 

I would have been out fishing more, but Utah is having crappy fishing weather 
this spring. Because of El Nino the usual high pressure that keeps us 
relatively dry and mild has never set up, and the storms keep rolling in.  The 
rivers are all ready blasted out as the reservoirs are being emptied to make 
room for the snow pact, which is between 150% to over 200% of normal.  Still, 
when you live in a dessert, you can't complain about water no matter how it 
comes.

The week before my surgery I will be fishing with my brother and a couple of 
nephews in the Bend, Oregon area.  We will begin by fishing a Pay to Play 
area called Lake of the Dunes where my nephew caught some enormous hogs 
last year.  After that we will fish some other reservoirs in the area from 
either a boat or kick boat.  Not a bad way to usher in my surgery!  The doctor 
was all for it, he says the more I use my bad leg now, the better, since 
keeping muscle mass is a key part of recovery.

No, that was the appointment with my Doctor to start the pre-op process.  He 
could have done the surgery earlier, but I wanted to wait until after the

Pretty obvious where my priorities lie!

 will have to be reconstructed. Will be three months recuperating on that. He 
 will not do both at one time because of my age. I plan to hold off till 
 winter if I can.

 Glad to hear you all had a good time at Sowbug.  For my part, I'm glad I

 be good to go for any kind of walking once every thing has healed up.
 
 There is a bright side, though.  It turns out that fishing from a kick boat 
 is perfect exercise for my bad knee!  I have been out about four times on a 
 little community fishery (Kaysville Ponds, for those who live in Utah),

 relatively dry and mild has never set up, and the storms keep rolling in.  
 The rivers are all ready blasted out as the reservoirs are being emptied to 
 make room for the snow pact, which is between 150% to over 200% of normal.

 how it comes.
 
 The week before my surgery I will be fishing with my brother and a couple of

 either a boat or kick boat.  Not a bad way to usher in my surgery!  The 
 doctor was all for it, he says the more I use my bad leg now, the better,

Re: [VFB] Update

2011-04-06 Thread Tom Davenport
When I was 23 I broke my femur getting off of a horse.  I think the horse 
helped me, but I can't remember, I was knocked unconscious.  When I came to, my 
leg was in an impossible position, the femur broken clean in two.  

The surgery involved putting a nail (a long rod) down the middle of the femur 
to hold it together, unfortunately the rod was straight but my femur was bent, 
so while the doctor was pounding it in through a hole on the hip end of the 
bone, it broke through just above my knee shattering the lower bone, and 
actually sticking out of my leg!  He had to saw it off with a hack saw, then 
cut my leg the full length of the bone and add a metal plate to hold the two 
broken pieces together.  The surgery took five hours instead one, and 
afterwards they gave my five units of blood!  A real mess.  I still have 
shrapnel from the sawing that shows up in x-rays.

Anyway, I couldn't put any weight or stress on the bone four a couple of 
months, and was told my knee would freeze but if I was careful to keep 
working at it after the bone had healed I could restore the motion in about a 
year, and that was exactly how long it took.  The bone healed up fine,  but the 
knee was never the same.

By the way, the first thing the doc will have to do is remove that old nail, 
but this time it will be pulled out from the bottom of the femur during the 
knee replacement surgery.

I've found the kayak a great way to fly fish both standing and setting. It
is easy to paddle, I can get in the back waters of the lakes and ponds as
well a down the rivers.

 

I've two kayaks one is a set-on-top and the other is for standing, the new
Freedom Hawk 12 is the best thing to have in the river or the lake. I can
paddle it around then put out the out-riggers from where I set and with the
bar pull my old lead bottom to a standing position. The bar makes it easy to
brace myself and fish in any direction.

 



 

I've include a photo here and a link Mad River Outfitters in Columbus Ohio
who handles them.

 

You can fall out but cannot roll it over without a lot of work, I've pushed
it  up to a 45 and it is still up.

I used a canoe a few times, when I was younger and had better balance. I'd 
never get used to a kayak. I did have a cute little pontoon boat that I used
for a while, but it was much like fishing from a boat. Finally sold it to
VFB member Jack Lehman.  Jack loves it.

Have you thought about putting at least one outrigger on the canoe you're
building? If so, you could stand up when need be.  Just a thought.

Jimmy,
This will be the fifth canoe I built on these forms. I fished some from the 
first one and it is real stable. Dot, myself and three kids would canoe with 
several people on weekends. I never worried about it tipping. Brought it out 
here and a tornado got it the first year. Built one for Jim H. last year and we 
have had it out on the White. Very stable, I would have no worry about tipping. 
It is still not wading, it is fishing from a boat..

I used a canoe a few times, when I was younger and had better balance. I'd 
never get used to a kayak. I did have a cute little pontoon boat that I used
for a while, but it was much like fishing from a boat. Finally sold it to
VFB member Jack Lehman.  Jack loves it.

Have you thought about putting at least one outrigger on the canoe you're
building? If so, you could stand up when need be.  Just a thought.

JIMMY D

I have tried my son in law's kayak It is OK for a while but my hack gives out 
in a short time sitting with my legs stretched out in front of me.
Hope to finish my canoe in the spring, I will give that a try. I have a 20' 
river boat but it is not fly fishing fishing from it.

Re: [VFB] UPDATE on Jimmy D's broken foot/torn posterior tendon

2010-11-28 Thread Don Ordes














Jimmy, Tony

My plans for my 15' Gruman Sports Canoe are half-way there.  I bought the 
canoe double-outrigger above from Cabelas, and it easily dismantles for 
general canoeing.  The casting platform will have a leaning post and a 
line-minder on the front of the platform.  With a 3-pont stance on the 
platform, and a stable boat, which is wide for a canoe (3'), it'll be plenty 
stable.  I can stand and fish now, but I still have to mind what I'm doing. 
With the platform and outriggers, I'll be able to concentrate on fishing.


My wife don't know it yet, but she gets the paddling duties.  The seats will 
be swivel folding, cushioned boat seats, so may back will have it easy.


I may build a 2nd tall platform in back for poling the shallows in Florida.

Jimmy,
This will be the fifth canoe I built on these forms. I fished some from 
the first one and it is real stable. Dot, myself and three kids would canoe 
with several people on weekends. I never worried about it tipping. Brought it 
out here and a tornado got it the first year. Built one for Jim H. last year 
and we have had it out on the White. Very stable, I would have no worry about 
tipping. It is still not wading, it is fishing from a boat..

[VFB] UPDATE on Jimmy D's broken foot/torn posterior tendon

2010-11-27 Thread rayado
Good News! I have finally found a shoe insert that works for my much maligned 
right foot. Long story, so I won't bore you with it except to say that it looks
like I will be able to wade again. The insert, which I slightly modified, gives 
my 
foot stability as well as comfort when walking. So from this point I should be 
able
to re-hab the foot,tendon, calf muscle, etc. and keep from falling on my butt 
when 
wading.  You never know how much wading means to you until you're not able to 
do it
anymore. It's been four years since my last stream wading and that was at 
Philmont Scout
Ranch in Cimarron, NM on my favorite little trout stream, THE RAYADO!

Hopefully, all the above lasts and I can do what I truly love.  Tying flies is 
OK, but
without the ability to wade, life is tuff for a fly fisherman.

Have A Good UN!

Well, I got back from the surgeon awhile ago (two weeks early), and I'm free 
and clear- all done!

3.5 weeks from brain surgery to all healed up.  Time to go do whatever I want.  
And the rivers and lakes are blown out- LOL.  Lots of rain recently, and 
they're predicting more.  

That's OK.  This doctor and his hospital (his as in owner) have restored my 
faith in professional medicine.  Thanks to Pete Gramp for turning me on to him.

Won't waste too many words- have said it all before.  Whoo-hoo!

  Pat,  You're doing much better than I did after the last time they opened me 
up.  Took me about 4 weeks before I even felt the urge to try tying.  I finally 
did my dozen flies for a swap, but had to make them really simple ones because 
I just couldn't concentrate or sit still at my bench for long.  Who knows, 
while tying under the inbfluence you may come up with a real doozy of a fly.

Keep up with the pills,
 someday you'll have your own Baits Hotel...
   and alter egos, i.e.,
   voices that argue with you.

Glad to hear you are doing so well.  I go see the surgeon tomorrow for 
release.  Looking back
at what could have been, and what used to be, my brain surgery was less 
traumatic than

my back surgery, and that wasn't bad at all.
