Fallen angler

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?

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.

No boat, back in the suds.

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.

Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

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.

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.

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.

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