Guest guest Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 Have fun fishing! I haven't been fishing in about 8 years. I use to thoroughly enjoy it. My dad was a big fisherman so I grew up on a boat with lots of fishing. My bestest memory is when my husband and I got to fly up to Rivers Inlet on a little sea plane and Salmon fish for 5 days and sleep in a floating cabin. Enjoy yourself thoroughly!

Guest guest Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 Have a great time Gordy. don't bring me back anything, for some reason I puke on all fish.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2005 Report Share Posted June 11, 2005 Hi Gordy, I'm so glad that you seem to be in a much better place ... I hope you have a wonderful time...yum all that delicious halibut! So what's with the jerky and protein bars? Is that just pre-op or do any of you post ops eat it too? Anyway, Gordy....have a safe trip and you go be that " Fishin' fool " to your heart's content! Best, Maggie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
