Just came out of hernia operation and will not be driving or bouncing around for next 7 days with this new battle scar from 7 yr old hernia I had VA finally take care of for me. Great doc and staff of nurses and techs did awesome job so will be good to go fishing in a week or so. Post some catches for me and make me drool! I chose to walk out and thru parking lot to car vs use a wheel chair so doing just fine.

Been there done that. I had an umbilical hernia repaired and it hurt to even blink my eyes for the first two days... and the idea of coughing or sneezing was something I lived in mortal fear of. In my case the surgeon cut three quarters of the way around my naval forming a "trap door" of sorts for inserting the hernia repair mesh. Once he put the mesh in place he stitched the muscle tissue closed and then the trap door and that was that. By day three I was getting around pretty good but had very strict orders not to lift anything heavier than my coffee cup for several weeks... nothing heavier than ten pounds for two months... and twenty pounds for six months if I remember correctly.
Prayers sent for speedy and uneventful recovery.

I'll probably have to have it done one of these years. My hernia might be different than most. I don't look forward to that day. Something I learned after my cancer surgery, drugs are your friends (within reason). Unfortunately I still take some for lingering pain. Take care, do what the Docs say and let the little woman pamper you. You deserve it.

Best wishes to you and I hope you don't go stir crazy over the next week.
My step son lives in Tampa and is a Vet having done 2 tours in the Middle East, he took some shrapnel.
The VA has taken good care of him with that and 2 bouts with cancer.
The cancer is gone but his back is still a mess, we feel blessed to still have him.
a speedy recovery to you. better fish for small fish for while.
Lemon has seen a lot of new fishermen this season due to high water as I have had quite a few asking questions like where they can park, does it have fish, how you catching them, and they can see the crankbaits on my rods and colors. Simple fact is, last few times I have fished it, everybody is slamming the bank, where they encounter small fish mostly, and only no more than couple of boats besides me out in deep water and mid lake, fishing structure, creek channels, flats and humps, where the larger fish are finally staging. Granted, it’s a hunt to locate them schooling, but when you do find them, you find the better sized fish. I will concede the 24 miles of shoreline to all.
