At last the Radiotherapy is finished! now just a three monthly injection! hopefully if the weather improves i might get some fishing in, at the moment i am still feeling tired in the afternoons, but as time goes on i hope to be getting stronger.
I have a fishing break planned and booked for September, so am hoping to be fit and able to wade, hoping to put some pictures of the trip on here. All going well, one week to go tomorrow and i finish the Radiotherapy treatment. Seemed a long way off back in March, so now its just an injection every three months!!
Hope you have all had a good start to the season, although the weather hasn't been the best, hopefully it will improve in the coming months. Just to let you all know, treatment going well, just a little tired in the afternoons. so, hopefully will be back fishing sometime in May.
Haven't tied any flies to date, but getting some ideas for some Nymphs. Hope you have had a good start to the season, just before i started my treatment i went to Hawkridge and had a 8lb 4oz rainbow. Due to health problems the "A Little Tweet" will be put on hold, if i feel up to it i might try and put some new Flies on the site, but until sometime in May when i finish the course of treatment it will be on hold.
I wish you all tight lines for the new season and i hope to be back fishing around June time. |
