Sorry for confusing, i have been fishing my hole life most of the time fresh water. I have gone salt water fishing with my dad he had a boat for over 20 years, but I never went for stripers so i just started with surf casting. I was not looking for sympathy I was just venting about how life can suck. Don't tell me about how others have it worse because I have one child in the grave at 3 months old one in a wheelchair, a wife with epilepsy and i have had 19 sugeries from ear surgery leaving me deaf in my right ear to brain surgery twice. I have been sick my hole life! I gess by the response I got for just venting I see there are a lot of on this sight!!!!

This is not mindreader.com, these guys had no idea of your situation. Good luck and hope for better times in the future. I wish you the best and hope you can get out fishing soon.

Seriously, this site is a community of great people who are all here to support each other in our common goal of enjoying a fishing way of life and to share information to help get better at our craft.

I've been on here for a while but have only been very active for about a year. I have been blown away by the caring and generosity towards others in need of anything, small to major; people pitch in to help out.

THERE ARE NO HATERS HERE!!! loose the attitude and you'll be welcome, otherwise, spread your negativity elsewhere please.

Either man up or go away. There are some of us here that have serious life threatening illnesses. Quit your bitchin' and man up.

No boat, back in the suds.

Agree on the getting more and the right kind of help. There is some good advise in this thread. And as I am finding out again, it would be wise for YOU to do what you need to better yourself and family. Get the back fixed and in time, when it is right, you can move heavier into surffishing.

You need help dealing with that, not pity.
Do your wife and kid a favor and go get it.
It is unlikely they want to be seen as a burden.
A jackpot lawsuit and this site are not going to result in your happiness.
Good luck.

It's not the hand you're dealt, it's how you play it. I'm not here to scold. Just to advise.
Whatever you have, make it better, then make it better again. Think positively.
Positive thought takes practice. Work on it.
Negative thought is easy and feeds on itself. But most importantly is destructive. Nothing positive comes from negative thought. How can it.
Have faith in yourself and take your life into your own hands. Rehab yourself today, not later. Every day lost is a day of your life gone.
Money isn't the answer. We were given our lives, not a checkbook.
You have a seat at the table, my man, and the cards are in front of you. The game is on now. Best of luck to you.

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

I don't get it.
Tread title "Life stinks"
You lost a child @3 months, a kid in a wheel chair, wife with epilepsy, you have had a bunch of surgeries and your "life stinks" because you can't go fishing ?
Perhaps you missed my twisted sense of humor with the Cheech & Chong skit quotes.
Thursday morning my wife was asking me about a place we are/were supposed to go to in Quincy Ma. in a few weeks for a surprise 60th birthday party for her cousin who has been very close with wife's mother for years.
Tomorrow I got to be home from my charter at a reasonable time late in the day for her cousins wake (guess the birthday party is off)
Monday am he gets a new dirt mattress for his birthday.
#^&#^&#^&#^& happens !
