Well, looks like I will be checking in to the hospital in a few hours. My Cardiovascular doctor is planning on stopping my heart and shocking it to bring it back into rythem. This should be a simple procedure and I will be back home, tonite, barring any unforseen complitations. This "A-Fib" condition has sure been kicking my butt and I am ready to get over it.
Nela
Praying for you NELA.
Wishing you well. You'll probably play guitar better after the procedure. At least strum a good beat.
Hope everything goes well for ya NELA
Praying that all goes well for you NELA.
Wishing you the best Nela.
Sending prompt healing vibes your way NELA !
Best of luck Nela hope all goes well for you
Back home and everything went fine. The doctor had to stop my heart and shock it twice before it went back into rythem.
Kinda stinging all over my chest from the shocking but other than that I feel better than I have in a long time. Able to take a deep breath, now. Gonna take it easy for a few days then see about doing a little hunting and crappie phishing.
Nela
Pleased that it went well for you.

I love crappie fishing. Good for the soul. With all the heart problems, you may not want to serve them fried...
Great to hear you're feeling better Nela. Happy fishing!
Hope it all goes well for you
Thanks. ya'll. Zurf, if the Good Lord didn't intend for a person to eat fried crappie then he would not have invented tarter sauce. Or ketsup. Or taters. Or iced tea. Or hush puppies. Or onions. So eating fried crappie is a good thang.
Nela
Glad to hear it went well. One question tho. Why would you want go crappy fishing? Don't you like to catch fish? I know a crappy day fishing is better than the best day at work but......
I'm kidding I know what a Crappie is. Have even caught a few myself.

Tell me please what a crappie is. For me crappy fishing is when i dont get a single bite all day, or i snag more trees than fish.
All the best anyway for your recovery
I am with TwangTown on this. What is the proper name for this fish please?
Roger
Proper names for the fish are black crappie and white crappie. They're a kind of panfish that scholl up. Once you find one, you've found a bunch. Big ones go about a pound, mostly bone, so you need a lot of them for a fish fry. They breed two to four times a year and are very prolific. Where there are creel limits on them, it's usually 50 fish.
I didn't even know people ATE crappies! We always throw them back, along with the Carp (yes, even the 12 pound carp although I hear some people eat those too). Actually, I can honestly say the only local fish I've ever really enjoyed was a pan fried Perch. We have bullheads and catfish pretty huge too, but they taste like mush to me. 
Need a good southern cook around here I think.
The secret to catfish is eating them panfried for breakfast after staying up all night catching them. Actually, it's buttermilk and cornmeal.
Happy to hear it NELA
Hope your procedure went okay, Nela ... best wishes go your way.

I concider bull heads to be trash fish. fun to reel in, but toss back. channel cat taste like mud if not cleaned good. Farm raised Cat however (which is what you get in a restraunt) is pretty yummy as its given cornmeal and other healthy foods.
the oney you see people noodle for, seem just like an over large bull head to me and dont think I would eat them either.
Just read the Wikipedia articles on both these fish, native to America only so no wonder that in New Zealand and the UK they are unheard of and I see YouTube even has a vid on how to fillet them
