Went to the doc today and finally after 8 weeks my broken pinkee finger on my casting hand is free! No more splint. Look out fish, here I come!! I had to cut down on my fishing because it made my finger swell. Made it tough to ty flys too. As for casting with the other hand, still a work in progress. J.C. got me started on that other hand casting and I will master it!

Bet you looked cute drinking a cup of tea!! Probably got invited to all the garden parties!!
The only thing I’ve ever broken (outside of my bank account) is a couple ribs and my good friends just loved to tell me jokes!
I feel more like I do now than I did when I got here!
Glad to hear that you are free to fish now.
Practicde the off hand casting, It will let you cast some places that you might not have been able to before.
Chris, it’s a sure fire way to get a crowded stream all to yourself
Harold, Monday-Wednesday on the waters.
Jack, they cancelled my invitations when they caught me cleaning the wax form my ear with the tip of my splint
Rick, I agree the off hand casting will help me get onto more fish.
Dave, Geeze now I missed a chance to cash in on my poor pinky AAARRRGGGHHH!!!
A special note that while perfecting off hand casting always go barbless!!! It’s much less painful and will keep you from being public number one.
