I've struggled with depression for many years. It can do some strange things to your body as well as your mind. I'm no doctor but you might be seeing some effects from something similar. Keeping fingers crossed for you. Feel free to contact me.

Taylor Bernard

Keep after the docs until they figure out what’s going on, sorry to hear you’re not feeling well. Hang in there buddy!

Glen Cannon

Sorry to hear that you are having health issues Michael. I don't know what to say that would help or change anything except to say I will pray for you to get answers and get better. Take care of yourself and thank you for giving us an update. Love ya brother.

Robert Poole

Captain wishing you well in your health journey. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Been in that position several times in life . Family and friends are always the best way to get through the depression. As well as being open with others.

Jimmy Thomason

I know what you are going through Capt. I'm 72 (73 in April). I had open heart surgery in 2009 but it failed in 2014. Since then I have had a total of 11 stents put in my heart. The last 4 were 2 in the first of March 2025 and another 2 at the end of March 2025. Followed by pneumonia. Then in May I developed a blood clod that ran the entire length of my left leg and migrated to both lungs. I had a Thrombectomy in June to remove the remainder of the blood clot. After recovering from all that I developed gall bladder issues. I had the Hydascan that could not even find my gall bladder which proved it wasn't working at all. Long story, short. I stayed in the hospital until they could wean me off of Plavix and Eloquis blood thinners. They removed my gall bladder and the surgeon said it was the worst infected he had ever seen. That was in July of 2025. Since then I have put back on weight (I lost 30 pounds during that episode) and am feeling great and almost back to my normal self. I said all of that to say that you will come through this too. I am praying for your healing.

James Brown

E TX Rick

Hey Cap'n, glad you made the time to film and share with us. You've got a solid base of supporters here on HLC, doesn't look like anyone is going anywhere! Honestly, on the variety of YT channels I follow off and on, I don't think I've ever seen such good hearted, well meaning fanbase that you have here. Hang in there Michael, you'll get it figured out. Let me know what I can help you with, I'm always here for you!

David Mikeska

Like Tony below, not much of a commentor (bartended too much in my younger days: start the conversation and then let them talk). But just so you know, you are in my thoughts and prayers. Lighting a candle for an accurate diagnosis, treatment and speedy recovery. God bless!

Grey Eagle

It is going so well I'll be out on the lake and on the trap range when the weather turns nice. Get well and we will be here for as long as it takes. 👍

Steakfrie

Thanks for the update. No doc here so no recommendations beyond seeking answers for a definitive solution. Got the same ice storm you did. Still hasn't melted off. Good news - 43 days till Spring and the Sun sets a little later each day.

Goose hunter

Donald Ison

How long has it been since you went fishing just for your pleasure only?? Grab bucket of minnows and jigs rod reel, . Fishing may have turned completely into a job.

John Reardon

Hey row captain Mike just hang in there. I believe it'll get figured out soon brother.

Frederick Pick

If I murder my wife because I am super frustrated from working on 2025s income tax return, could I be excused from doing the crime. I need an IP PIN, but my computer tilted and locked me out of the site. They will not answer the dang phone either. The heck with Turbo Tax I guess I'll head into a H&R Block with the pile of tax papers and let them do it. Every year is a mountain of headache for me during tax time. Mike for your ailment try Ginger Brandy. Just keep doing shots until you feel better. I cannot drink booze so I self-treat myself by smoking pot. Remember we are all in this together. Bass are still smashing shiners in the lake out back, even the cold temps are not slowing them down.

juergen oberlaender

Hi Michael, greetings from Germany. We really hope your doctors find out what's wrong soon and that you'll be back on your feet quickly. We're keeping our fingers crossed for you and wish you all the best. We're thinking of you and we won't let you down.

Dadskahkys

prayin' for ya dude. hang in there.

Robert D. Dogoli

I'm praying for you Michael and will put you on the prayer list at church. I have been watching your show for many years, but I think this is the first time (maybe 2nd) time I have been on the comment section of your posts. You hang in their friend and just keep asking these Dr.'s till you get an answer. Bob

Steve Mackelprang

Don't give up the ship, some stormy weather ... it will blow over.

Benjamin Boyd

Still praying brother. Keep your head up. This will pass.

hooklinechill

I was just talking about this today. I do need to return to my roots.

hooklinechill

Thank you. Always appreciate the kind words. What is your actual name if you dont mind?

Paul Wylie

I'm sorry this problem is affecting you Capt. Keep after it and it should resolve itself.

hooklinechill

You've come a long way my friend! I certainly hope they find something monday. Im having a gallbladder attack at this very moment. Sucks to have to play the waiting game.

hooklinechill

I hope to return to that soon. Thanks for being here.

Carl N

Your health comes first. Hope y'all get it figured out and you feel better soon. Please do not feel obligated to create x number of videos per whatever time period. This is your hobby, not your job. The fact that it is now one of your main income streams should be the gravy not the whip.

Nick C

🙏🙏

ChuckH

get well Capt....hard to hit the "like" button when i don't.....never understand how that works... sending nothing but good vibes and thoughts on finding out what's going on....keep your head up....talk to whoever you need....it helps for sure.....

Goose hunter

HI my real name is edward Rowsell i am from Canada

IdahoPohTaToh

Don't be afraid to see a different doctor if you don't think you aren't getting the results you want. Maybe try some light therapy to help with your depression? Winter does get a bit depressing at times. Hang in there Michael. I'll say a prayer for you.🙏

G-man

Hate to see you this way. This is the worst time of year for feeling down in general. So add on not knowing what is written with you it's gotta be the worst. I remember you saying a while ago that you were mentally feeling alot happier in general and it showed. So this really has to suck for you. I don't know what else to say except I hope you can get to the bottom of this and get to a resolution.. you're a great person Michael always remember that and you have a lot of people pulling for you!!! I know you said you have been talking with people. Shooting the breeze or whatever.. let me know more than happy to brother! Thanks for updating us!

Don Mears

Don't worry about getting videos out. Just get yourself right and that will shine through in the videos. Get well Michael!

Jimmy Thomason

When I first started hurting from my gall bladder attack, I went to the local ER but was sent home saying I just had a bad case on indigestion. That was on a Sunday night and I had an already scheduled appointment with my GP on the following Tuesday. He would not let me leave his office and called an ambulance to take me to a Birmingham hospital. I sure hope they can get you some relief. The sooner the better! I want you to know that your videos (and the ladies) helped me get through it all.

Brooks Morton

Have you been tested for Lyme disease?

James Luiz

Thank you for the up date Micheal Sorry to see you this way keep way . Hope you find out the problem soon . I will support you anyway I can

Stephen Harrison

Pulling for you here in East Tx. Prayers going up. Keep us posted if you can. Thanks for the update video.

M.A. Schumacher

Hey Cap! Sending you good vibes and positive energy. You will kick this health issue in the ass, you know it. Thank you for the video, you sure got a lot of folks who care about you so don’t forget that.

Norm Gray

Wow! Walk like a penguin! That's how we survive winter in Maine a

jerry carico

I lost a bunch of weight over a year period, feeling funky. Found out I needed a probiotic. Started eating yogurt and gained the 50 pounds I lost back.

Roger B

Have they checked you for parasites?

Jerry Lienert

Just so you know, you've been in my thoughts and prayers since you first told your HLC family about your health issues. Keep up the good work and keep searching. I've been there.

Marty Smith

Keep up the fight caption, always remember, you're the GOAT of trot liners!

Mark Long

Sorry about your health I will put you in my thoughts and prayers. You may have to go through many test and many doctors but someone will figure it out so don't give up hope.

Jack H. Grayson

you have been in my thoughts and prayers... you take care of you... love yall...

RANDY Ray ALEXANDER

Thanks for update. You will get answers. Hard to do anything when you don't feel good. Get your brain busy to avoid worry. Praying 🙏

WaKule

Health comes first ALWAYS! Take care of you Cap'n Michael, you're fans get it and wish you nothing but good things. You got this

David

ell pray for your good health,

steve

Long time subscriber and possible first time commenting. I'd rather wait for uploads than see you physically or mentally struggling, been down a deep depression hole myself so understand a little of what you're going through. Look after yourself and best wishes from the UK

Earl Aker, Jr

I'm praying for you and for a resolution to your health issues, both physical and mental. Believe it or not, I've been watching your videos since before there was a HLC and it was just you and your young son, making nonsense amateur videos! Look back and you'll probably see some of my comments, lol. Anyway, all that just to say that the weird thing about the internet is the connections you can make with others and the feeling that you can be friends with someone you've never even met. You are definitely a friend that I have never met and if there is anything I can do to help, please reach out to me. Other than that, I am praying for you and for good news on Monday!

Scotty Phelps

Praying for you Micheal, if there's ever anything I can do to help you or Mr silent dan, yall just let me know!!!

Stanley B

Hey Michael. Don’t worry about your video being depressing. I for one am concerned about how you’re doing. It’s got to be scary not knowing what happening, you’re still a young man. I’ll keep you in my prayers, that I promise. Hang tough my man!

Michael Wright

Ya, prayers are on the way! I hope you get to the bottom of your health issues. I know the thyroid gland can cause some similar symptoms! And not knowing is very unnerving! Hope you have support there. The point girls, I bet Tara will check on you! Silent Dam. Ashley too! Try keeping your chin up and I’ll keep supporting you as much as I can. Just one more of life’s trials! . You’ll get through it! God Bless

Marvin Mobley

I hope you are better now I know its late but I can hope im 78 and have lost a lot of weight and dont know why so take it easy and dont force anything
