Thats a dandy! Had to take a pard to the hospital with a big Rapala like that, except he had embedded the rear treble too....

Many moons ago at a boy scouts camp, my friend next to me went to cast and hooked the eyelid of another scout behind him. That was 30 some years ago and I can still see that mepps dangling from his eye as if it happened yesterday.

No dignity in paddling around with a plug hanging from your face. Fortunately a pair of pliers and some teeth gritting did the trick.
Last time I barbed myself I was in my teens. Buddy pushed it through and snipped the barb. But that was in my hand.
I'd forgotten about that incident until this happened.

I did the push thru/snip method on myself once. It sounds a LOT better in print than it feels in practice!. I make it a point to carry a small, REALLY sharp knife to aid in getting the odd hook out. The only big stuff we fish is pike-in Alberta- where law dictates a single barbless hook, and that makes life a lot easier, unhooking pike or yourself.

Here is a guy that deliberately hooks himself three times to show the three ways to remove hooks. Hope a few get a laugh from it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zgfpsupmu98The fool doesn't know how to do the best method. The loop of heavy line must be low and against the skin as you pull and also hold the upper part of the hook down against the skin. I have done this by myself on the boat by putting the loop around a cleat. Will admit when one of the dogs gets hooked it is plier and yank method.

Yep, the heavy line loop method is the quickest and least painfull. I pulled a spook out of my buddies back 2 summers ago that another friend had been trying to get out. Tell them to count to three but yank on 2.

That sucks... I did the push through, snip off method a couple years ago on a friend. He missed a bass on a top water Pop R and that thing became a missile humming through the air as if laser guided. Caught my bud on the bottom of the elbow and stuck in that tough ass stretchy skin right on the bottom of the bone there. To hear him tell it was a pretty rugged extraction. Personally I didn't think it was all that bad all things considered.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

Ingwe, I tried to push it through and it didn't agree with me at all. Line loop didn't look like it worked too well. Maybe test it on a dog. Scalpel blade and a small mirror in the tackle box? And some better technique on the retrieve.

The loop method is the best and works on humans. As for trying to get a panicked dog to stay still, that's another matter. Here is are two links showing it being done: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06T9c5YMLzAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMK-M2rTX5MI don't use fishing line. I also see no reason to tie it around the curve of the hook. I have a loop in my tacklebox that is some thin nylon rope all set to go. If I can remove a large treble while in 3 ft waves by myself then a couple of helpers can do it very easily.

There's some stuff called 2% lidocaine oral gel that makes dealing with things like this and putting in a stitch or two a lot more pleasant.
It can be had in a little 100 ml dispenser bottle. For hooks, a small syringe without needle can be used to get some inside the hole.
Works great on burns as well. Does not penetrate intact undamaged skin well.
