Thanks so much. Will keep you posted.

The spine specialist I spoke to says different when I asked the difference ........................ but who knows. I recall reading the ct scan a year ago and the word bulge was there. Later, the word herniated was used so................................ still in the dark!!! thanks

Lynn I did all the red tape stuff I was asked to. I tried chiro on my own assumption and from there had tylenol3 for the first time. Then it was many doctor visits and waits for ct scan. Next was 2 months of physio where he even told me this was not working. After that, the mri, and next to a spine specialist. They asked me to wait 3 more months but after 20 months of this I am not optomistic and hence........... looking at everything!!! thanks

I also have the nerve issue. ( Sciatica) They go hand in hand. The pinching on the nerve from the disc causes this. You sound like you know this already. The benefit of the surgery is it takes out the leaked portion of the disc. I will try almost anything. thanks

Do you know if his back problem is disc related?

Thanks. I think my disc issue needs more than inversion but, I am no doctor.

Been dealing with a herniated disc issue for 20 months. Jumped all the hoops, ctscan, mri, physio etc.etc. Waiting on word for a possible surgery but exploring all options. Anyone know of someone who tried the decompression route. There is now a clinic in Calgary and I am thinking on it. Although expensive, worth it if it works!! thanks

That is an impressive hopper!!!! You will love the floatability on the fast riffles. I still use the traditional body from time to time but most of mine are foam.

Been wearing Simms aquastelth boots since 02 and will never go back.

Meaning..................................???????? If it reference to your post ( that I did not read) well ..... tough. Many things are frustrating .................... its called life.

A lot of the above analysis is reasonable and holds some truth. However, when talking and comparing shots with stats you need to be careful. A team can be outshot but not outplayed. How many shots were due to power play and even 5 on 3???? The QUALITY of the shots is the key. Perimeter players come in by the dozen and so do their shots. Box scores can't explain this. Only watching the game can. I am not a Flames fan but Kipper is famous for making the big save when need be. The guy wins games with not the best stats. It will be interesting to see how the relationship with Captain Hook ( Keenan) goes. Something has to give.

Agree " Fully Completely"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Caught a few at that spot.......................I think it is around Canmore!!!!!!!!!

This will help you. Been using this method for years and never a problem.

Peak rotary for this guy! About 4 years old and 165 bucks at the time. Base is about 6 pounds and solid for size 24-2 ( hooks I use).

If my boys make ***hole angels next winter they are getting a good tanning on the hoop!!!!!! JK

Islander IR 2 Great reel to compliment my 4 wt. XP. I use this set up for dries on the bow ans crow. Click and Pawl is nice on the smaller reel.

A gooder indeed!!!!

Bought the original Simms Guides back in 2001 ( paid about 650 bucks!!!! damn loonie) and have since owned 2 more pair of waders through replacement from Simms on defective seams. Their warranty and service is OUTSTANDING!!!!! Everything I own for apparrel is Simms for this reason. I did spend a lot of coin over the years on their products but they returned in spades with great wader service. They used to be the most expensive but now their are others comparable. When talking with any service/warranty rep it pays to be nice.

Yeah ....... not even close. Price and the crew have zero confidence right now.

A definate combination of both factors trailhead!!!!!!

Go habs go..........No Habs No!!!!! By boys are a sinkin fast. Need a trade or shake up. 2 short handed goals and the Flames skated them to death. Hopefully a win in Oil country wenesday. Hanging my head in shame. Even my 5 year old son is distraught as he made a bet with his kindergarten teacher and has to wear a Flames tshirt this afternoon!!!!!!!!!!

I also have been tying my own leaders for 10 years. A definate cost saving and as mentioned easy to change things up. Maxima for the first 3 sections tapering down with various tippets depending on use.

Good job!!!
