Tore my rotator cuff at work back in February After trying months of therapy, cortisone shot, and prayer lol I am headed for the knife. Got the word yesterday from the orthopedist. July 11 and then 6 weeks of recovery which I am planning on cutting down as much as possible. Because its workmans comp I couldn't push it until winter.
Have been really contemplating not getting it done but then I reach in the fridge for gallon of milk and am instantly brought to my knees in pain.
I plan on getting as much fishing in as possible between now and then. After the surgery ill be attempting to left handed fish. It will be a lot of finesse and senkos lol. Most likely will have to sponge off everyone for a seat on the back of their boat since I don't think I will be able to launch mine.
This is really gonna suck.

Damn,
Bob. Sorry to hear about this misfortune. Well, after Jiggen Den had his rotator cuff surgery, he was back to fishing in no-time.
Hopefully the recovery period is not long and the follow-up therapy treatments\exercise does the trick.
Here's to a speedy recovery!!!

Sorry to hear the news Bob. The surgery wasn't too bad, it was the therapy. Don't mean to scare you, but the stretching, pulling, etc they do is a bit painful, but the more you can tolerate it the more mobility you will get back sooner. I even made a pulley system on my deck too help speed up my recovery. Good luck Bob!! Any questions feel free to call. I was out of work for 5 months.
