In the next few years it will be all barbless fishing in this state unfortunately. The CR is going barbless, so you won't see this as often.
how is that unfortunate? do you really think you lose fish because of no barbs?

I like taking naps when I fish. They stick around for a while while the bell is going off. :chuckle:

I instructed my fishing buddy to drive the tip through (another hole) and cut the hook. The other friend couldn't even look... I bled profoundly, since this was a tear, not only a hook hole. Still have a small lump there... :chuckle:
I fish for 35 years, and have never done something like this to myself... How did I manage this time, it is out of my powers to figure... :dunno:

The string yank technique would also not work for this one.Wow, that woke me up this AM!
Soldotna, AK eye surgeons remove more fish hooks from the eye area or near eye areas than any other group in United States. I remember reading an article many years ago about the surgeons there and how busy they were during fishing season! (for those that don't know this is on the Kenai Peninsula)

Seeing first hand how many hooks can be in the air at on time I can believe it! :mgun:The string yank technique would also not work for this one.Wow, that woke me up this AM!

An angler had a miraculous escape after catching HIMSELF in a freak fishing accident. Acording to The Sun News, “Peter Inskip, 42, had to be cut off his own line after a two-inch lead weight shot through his neck and lodged at the top of his chest.
The dad-of-one was fishing for carp at a lake near his home when he tried to cast his line out into the water. As he went to flick it forward, the missile-shaped weight caught in undergrowth behind him. Instead of untangling it, the frustrated fisherman tugged as hard as he could. It broke free and rocketed towards him – going straight into his skin like a bullet. Shocked Peter staggered to a nearby house to get help. Paramedics cut the fishing line before rushing him to hospital. The engineer said: I could see the line hanging out of a perfectly formed hole. It was still attached to my rod, which was in my hand, and I could feel the weight in the back of my throat. It really was the most strange feeling – I had caught myself.
