fishing injuries

So,  I've had the misfortune of fighting over 100 fish in the last week on the Kenai.  I know...you all feel sorry for me.

the problem I have now is that my shoulder is killing me.  Any ideas how to treat this?   Ice helps a little, but the fact that there are still tons of reds in the river is drawing me back.   What do I do?

Learn to fish with your other arm?

  Only one cure---PT---Raise arm, flip, drift, hook, and repeat until hooked up again.

I don't feel sorry for you. Tough it out! I broke my hand last salmon season. I slipped on a rock while netting someone's fish. I tried my best to continue fishing but I couldn't hold my rod. I figured it was time to go to the hospital. The fishing was so hot that I got my cast on and went right back out there. I switched to a spinning combo and swapped the crank around so I could reel with my good hand. I finished the season that way and ended up catching more salmon than anyone else at the local 'secret spot'.

So yeah, suck it up pansy!

I didn't say I was quitting.   Just wondering if there was a cure.

last year I had to go to the hospital to get a hook removed.   After a trip to dairy Queen, I finished catching my limit.

Maybe I'll just switch species for a couple of days

1 of them is. The rest were from the bank

Know a friendly doc? Get an RX for some Voltaren gel, slap it on the shoulder and get back out there. Time's a-wasting.

Yup. I'm sore. Few days off. Hit it again!!!!! Woot!!! T'is the season!!!!!
