I am still around and not in the hospital. Been just flat out too tired and run down to do anything the past couple of days. Doctor appointments yesterday and today and they both said everything was looking good and both said with getting 12 pints of blood the past couple of weeks would take a couple of weeks for my body to get any energy back. Still kicking and appreciate the concern. I also want to thank all those that kicked in some cash and bouht me the fly tieing kit. Plan on using it and making my own including the one that will catch the 12 pounder. I know Steve Headrick is sending some craft hair and stuff as well and I appreciate that also. Thanks to all of you fellas that continue to send emails and well wishes. Not ready to get back on the water just yet but not in the hospital either so I guess it could be better and it could be worse. Take care and talk to you later.
