Well after my back getting worse and worse after standing up i finally got it looked at. The past decade my fishing time has been limited by the pain in my lower back and legs,. I have three herneated discs taht there going to treat with steroid injections. When trying to fish I found myself not lasting longer than 15 minutes per trip. I thought it was my mistake knees but my lower back felt like jello when the pain would get worse. I found myself getting more bed ridden too. It was time to get it looked at to get it fixed if it can be. My point is pay attention to your body.

As i bumped up to longer fishing rods my pain got worse. But with the 6'6" and 7' rods i could cast farther from shore. Godbless; BigBill

BTW; I got intouch with Terry Clark and got some new discounted lures repainted with his awesome bass colors and they look great. Right now he is recovering from his operation and doing well the last time i heard from him. My plan is to send him all my older lures and get them all repainted. I have a lot of newer older lures that i never use because of there color. I figure with the high cost of new lures i can get my older stuff repainted.

Sir, I don't know you but I pray God heals your pain and lets you fish pain free again.

seconded. i couldn't even imagine. hang in there. there is nothing worse than lower back pain, especially if it is keeping you off the water. my thoughts go out to you. tight lines.

Severe back pain is a terrible thing to have to deal with. I have bad spasms sometimes and I can't hardly breathe it hurts so bad at times. Hope you get to feeling better so you can get back on the water!
