At least you didn't swamp on a submerged couch like the kayaker in $hithole RIO

you should have just splinted it yourself and went on fishing

you should have just splinted it yourself and went on fishing when i first met my old lady, i had walked out the back door of her house and slipped on the steps, broke my arm above the wrist. waited 3 days before i went to the ER becuase i wanted to get a little more.

Well that sucks, but you still got two arms to paddle the yak and cast so go fishing!

I am lucky. I have enough sick days to cover the time I have been off. Hope to go back next week. I have to have full release. No light duty. Crutches suck. You need a knee scooter for around the house. No way to carry something to eat to table. Scooter has a basket on front. I will use crutches to get in to get cast off. Hope to walk out with boot in a little while. I had splint for ten days after surgery. Then cast, which is hot. Cant wait to be able to bathe foot again. Be nice to stand in shower instead of sitting down too.

Ouch! Sorry to hear that! Heal fast, and you can still fish with a cast on, don't forget that...
I was wading down my creek Saturday checking my land and hit about a 50 yard section of flat shale with moss on top. Felt like I was walking on ice, and even going REAL slow it was still tricky with the uneven shale and I was windmilling my arms a couple times to keep my balance. After several spills on mossy boat ramps and muddy banks and streams, won't be surprised if I'm in the same situation some day.

Good luck with surgery. They did a nerve block on my leg just below my knee. Came home with a pump that put drugs in nerve for 4 days. Had splint on it for two weeks, went back X-ray and cast. Cast for 4weeks. Mo Fo is off. It was hot and got funky. Leg wasnt bathed for 2 months. Pump up air boot to walk in now. I took pain pills for a couple of days after pain pump ran out, but they made me sick. Went with iboprofen for a couple more. After that it didnt hurt any more. Let us know how it goes. I'm lucky I had family to help. And sick days!!

Dammit!
Sorry to hear that your day went South so quick. Here's hoping for a quick recovery and no aggravation to your hunting season this fall.
