V-21/24 After you fall, you must get back up.

Aftermath of the fall. Going fishing is a quest now.
I must give credit where credit is due. Ray Gregory Rides gave me this idea of doing
a video while I was fishing. More tweaking needs to be done but the falling down was NOT included in the planning of this adventure.
One side note, after I go fishing and use live bait (Minnows, crickets, or worms) I always say, "Release the Kraken!" from the "Clash of the Titans" (1981) Sorry, Eric.
Old habits are hard to break.

[@FlipandTheBlueMule]

Glad you didn't break anything... "THE GOLDEN YEARS" 🙏🤠

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

Really. Whoever thought of that term, well, never mind.

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

I sure hope for a speedy recovery on your ankle. Release the Kraken! 🦑😂

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

After I saw that movie back in 81, I have always said that releasing live bait. Thanks, Eric.

[@northbysoutheast5439]

Hope you didn’t break any bones. Bones take longer to heal when you’re around our age. 👍

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

Just bruised and embarrassed mostly. When you were younger, you looked around, hoping nobody saw you. Now adays, you looked around HOPEING somebody saw you.

[@TheBlueBikeDoyle]

Good way break a hip . 😮

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

I'm good. They are both titanium anyway. I don't know if they have a warranty or not. 😆

Looks like that was a bad fishing hole that day... and you 'fell' for it 🙄🥴... sorry Dave, I couldn't resist that one 😏 Be well, Sir, heal up that ankle 😊👍

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

That's ok man. It was a set up for sure.😆

[@theChestnutMtnTinman]

Glad you got to fish a little after you got up. Hope nothing is broken and you heal up quickly.😎😎

[@1954shadow]

Catch of the day, “Black-n-Blue Gills.”

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

🤓That was a knee slapper.

[@1954shadow]

@@theSMYRNAcowboy Don’t slap that knee, too hard, lol.

[@SpyderRichard]

Well...the weather was nice😉. Sure glad you're feeling better Cowboy! Cheers!

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

I was determined to go fishing 🎣

[@RideBlessed]

Oh good, you did in fact get the bait in the water... just watched the prior video now watching this one. Hoping you catch something... will watch and see :)

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

Sorry my friend. Like they said in the "Christmas Story" skunked again. 😔

[@Viper6-MotoVlogger]

Been there done that. Glad you didn’t get hurt.

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

Top of the foot looks like an old timey stamp pad. Looks rough. Thank you for the thought, bro.

[@robertstone6874]

Sorry about your ankle, buddy. I hope you are feeling better. We don’t heal as quickly as we used to.

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

I know, right. When we were 18, you cut a vein, rubbed some dirt on it, wrapped it in a grease rag, and the next day, you were fine. Now, you get hit with a spit wad and get a bruise. Thanks, Stoney.

[@RideBlessed]

06:45 rod put away... no fish caught... and a swollen ankle to boot... well at least it was a nice day :)

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

Yes, it was. Everything was good. (Except the faceplant on the pier thing.)

[@eddcurry501]

Been there, done that. Take care.

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

Thanks, buddy. More embarrassing than anything.

[@mikebigeasyrider]

Ya, It's hell getting old

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

It ain't for sissies!

[@BlackphoenixEntertainment]

glad you still got to fish for a little bit.

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

Thanks. It was a quest then. It was on!

[@banditnev]

Good at least you are better Dave.

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

Thanks, mate. It does take a while.

[@HerThreeWheels]

Take care, just be careful ❤❤, get better soon and hope that you didn't break anything

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

Thanks sweetie. My pride was broken more than anything. The top of my foot looks like an old stamp pad. Mrs Cowboy will keep an eye on it for me.

[@HerThreeWheels]

I bet so glad that you are feeling better just take care of yourself, and be safe

[@samsmithmotovlogs]

Glad you survived pretty much intact. At our advanced age a fall is nothing to laugh at. Well except in your case. 🤣🤣

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

I took my sock off and there is a GIANT bruise on my right foot! Looks cool.

[@samsmithmotovlogs]

@@theSMYRNAcowboy You will do anything for your KZbin friends!

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

@@samsmithmotovlogs it looks like one of those old stamp pads. 😆

[@samsmithmotovlogs]

@@theSMYRNAcowboy 🤣

[@TennRides]

Falling like that at our age is no fun. I'm surprised, not really, that they didn't have it painted or marked better...that's a lawsuit waiting to happen right there, I tell you what. I figured that when you dumped a container of perfectly good worms into the water, y'all was done for the day. I'm glad you are on the mend.

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

If I was the "sue" happy type, I guess I would. They should have it painted or something, at least.

[@TennRides]

@@theSMYRNAcowboy I'm not the sue happy type, either. Someone will trip, get really hurt, and when they sue, the county will be out there with paint before the court date...guaranteed.

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

@@TennRides I send the Director of Parks and the Mayor an email this morning with a link to this video. We shall see what happens.

[@TennRides]

@@theSMYRNAcowboy If they ignore you...man, at that point I might just contact an attorney. It isn't right that you get stuck with medical bills, along with the pain and suffering, not to mention inconvenience, because of their carelessness.
