I was feeling the same aches and pains at the end of last year as well but worked out at the gym to support the muscles around the tendons last winter and this year has been great!

Get to the gym over the winter...consider it training for fishing.

Usual elbow and shoulder junk I can live with. Knee is a given after four surgeries, all about 30 years ago. But I am concerned with right hip acting up......

maybe you need a replacement, you are getting up there in the years

just kidding obviously. my uncle has alot of joint problems and takes some joint supplement from GNC that he says changed his life. I'll ask him next time I see him - its probably either steroids or HGH under a different name though

Fishing is a endurance sport.6-8 hrs on yer feet.making 10,000 cast's.
As we get older it does not get any easier.
While I may not look it.I am really limber.I walk, I move the weight's around enough to keep the dust off em.Every morning out of the shower I do a 5 minute streching routine.Look at some yoga moves..It's worth it..You have to keep at it.
The choice is simple really.The thing that bothers me the most is sleep deprivation..
I need my rest now more than when i was younger..I can feel the toll all nighters are having on my phyiscal health.

FORE!
It's usually darkest just before it turns Black..
