I almost made it a couple years back when I fell in the lake on a frigid late October morning, and still kept fishing, but not quite. As I recall you said I might be crazier than you, but I don't abuse myself like that often enough to qulify for membership ...yet.In my opinion, anybody worthy of being labeled a "fisherman" is an automatic candidate for MA. But some anglers are natural-born masochists. Others have it thrust upon them...or however that goes. Some of us kinda vote ourselves in...with all the wacko stuff we do in the name of enjoys. Others, like yourself, experience a minor/major incident and then just tough it out. Still qualifies if you want it to.
Be properly grateful for the good times you enjoy on the water. Don't be so anxious to join MA that you do something rash and foolish. Plenty of that to go around.
