Does anyone know how the guy that fell by the Herring Run made out. He took a bad fall an seemed to have broken his wrist and took a hard hit to the head?

plus a guy had a compound fracture of his lower leg on Monday at the ditch.... bad week for injuries. esp with poor fishing

Glad you brought that back around to the important at the end :devil2: :hihi:

-spence

can only keep them once ......how many have been taken from the ditch .in the last 7 years ???????????:fishin:

Haven't been this year. Really trying to avoid it. If I do go it'll be at 0' dark 30. Just has turned into too much of a zoo.

ouch thats why I wear korkers rubber boots and sea weed dont mix and once you start falling the angle of the bank add's speed to your fall
and you get those injury's surprised its not more common

No need to worry lately Paul. Has been a ghost town most mornings I check before work. I have not even taken a cast last few times just a nice leisurely bike ride. Nights may be a little more crowded but I too have concentrated on other places.

Jeez, that good to hear. It got unbearable for awhile last year. Anyway, I'm staying close to home as we have been into decent fish for 3 days.

And it will be again if they show.

I've been boycotting that hell hole for two seasons now and feel I am better for it. I hope all the fish (or what's left of them) go around the long way. F that place.

He was 70 years old and walking his dog up on the trail. Heard his ankle was in real bad shape. It was 3 poles down from us.

that really sucks .........walking his dog .damn it ain,t fair ><>,

One good tide and the cell phones and internet will bring it right back to the normal zoo. Stinks that a lot of the good tides come on the weekends. I will fish the weekdays before work and the nit wits can have the weekends. Finding other places to fish other than the canal these days is a smart thing to do. The fun gets sucked right out if it quickly but you got to expect that kind of situation if you go there.

That trail is in pretty bad shape. The rain must have made it even more treacherous.

Also, a couple of weeks back, a guy riding a bike blew out his front tire and went down in a heap when he lost control. Ambulance responded. They were treating him when I went by.

I SAW PICS, IT WAS HORRIFIC

I figured he was fishin with the poles on the ground. must have been from a couple guys helpin him.The rescue workers had a hard time gettin him up the bank

Haven't made one trip there this year... the closest I've come is stoppin in at cc charlies on my way back from off cape. Was this injury the famous picture i've been seeing of the ankle busted wide open??

Hope the one injured is ok. Let's all be careful out there on those rocks!

The Guy with the Ankle injury is my good friend Cliff. He had surgery at RI hospital shortly after the swelling went down. He at 70 years will most likely will never walk right again. He called the shop and had me send him the picture that one of the guys took. Worst break I ever saw.

That happened not long after i left your shop mike.Took a heck of a load of work gettin him up the bank.Hope he heals ok.

he'll be in physical therapy for a year

Well hopefully they let him walk the Canal from time to time. the fact he was there means he likes the place

Thanks for not posting the pic. Leg injuries give me the chills. I hope he heals up well and walks as good as before.
