    Had my right one done in about 1983 or so. 10 days after the surgery I was pitching practice for my senior league team. It was still pretty sore though. They repaired the meniscus and did a lot of clean up all over including under the cap.

    Good luck!

    Had the ACL replaced in my right knee in December. Back up and around in about 10 days. Driving in 4 weeks. This one just had a lot more damage. Hoping to avoid any total replacements for at least another 15 years or so. Can't wait to get back on the water though. Thank for the good luck wishes.

    Hey buddy, get a wheel chair and a friend with a pontoon boat and get on the water. Or just recooperate and be ready for the fall bite.

As for me personally, I am still getting paid, my loan disability insurance is paying my next 2 months truck payments (almost $1000), wife still working, I think I'll stick to buying new stuff instead of labor intensive things! Except for tying Gnat rigs of course. That job is never done! Again, I appreciate the generosity Eagle. You are very kind for offering!!! :D Looks like a call to Cumberland Crappie is in my very near future!:beer:

If all else fails ship them to me and I'll report on how well they are working . ps.I can send you my reels and you can clean them . also if you can tie flies I need 10 doz. black gnats . Glad to help . get well soon .
