Tough young gal there - and still has a smile on her face about it
Whatever you said...everyone knows you are a lying jerk. That's a bold assertion. Point out where you think I lied. Well?

Five will get you ten Facebook and Twitter would delete that pic or publish a warning. Too graphic! Sarcasm.
That picture will get her a lot of street cred. Edit: If you take her to the doc, she will likely get a stitch or two. More street cred!
She is also one cute kid, and I mean that in a good way, not a weird way. (What have we come to that I feel I need to qualify that?!!!)

This picture for me was like one of those "say when you got it" deals. Took me forever to see the dang hook in her hand....then you can't not see it. Its in there pretty good looks like, and its important that she get a tetanus booster if necessary.
I've managed to fish probably 50 years and have never gotten hooked....came close a couple of times. Probably just means I'm due. Fished with a friend one time and we got into the largemouths good. We were catching them with topwater plugs....you know the kind that have three treble hooks on them. He had a bass on the floor of the boat and went to grab its mouth, it kicked at the perfect time and set one of the trebles in his hand real bad. It would have been quite a rodeo had he been alone, having to unhook a fish that was hooked to him with one hand. I got the fish off, and the lure off the line and we went to the immediate med.
A couple of guys were quite amused to see him sitting in the waiting room with a big topwater plug hanging from his hand!

She got caught. They'll probably have to slice this one out. She's a tough little booger. This one's the hunter too. She's lights out on the trigger. Refreshing to see a normal tough kid. Bet she doesn't drink desert coffee.

not fun getting one in the finger while a big kingfish is hooked on the leader flopping around. i had to pin it down and it managed to bite my other hand so blood everywhere. I cut the leader then pushed the barb through and cut it off.

Big smile from a tough pretty young lady.

Did that when I was 12 or 13. Tried the yarn truck. After dad and grandpa drug me all over the house we went to the ER. Doc said no big deal, slid a hypodermic needle in with the hook, covered up the barn, and slid it out. Took longer to give me a numbing shot than it did to remove the hook.

I carry a couple of stiff needles (leather sewing needles) with the hope that I will be able to do something similar. But I have never had the opportunity to try it and so far, no one, including me, has been willing to do a test to see how well it works (or not.)

I cut the leader then pushed the barb through and cut it off. I was wade fishing at the tip of Petit Bois Island. I caught a Spanish on a Gotcha plug. It sliced my finger open good and I drove one of the trebles into another finger just past the barb. I went ahead and pulled it back out against the barb. The finger the Spanish got was bleeding quite a bit. I was blotting it on my shirt while I continued to fish but a good bit of blood was going into the water. After about 3 minutes of steady bleeding I saw a silhouette of what looked like about a 6 foot long bull shark ease up toward me. That gave me the cold willies.

Update on Cass. She is good. They ended up taking her to an ER nurse friend's house. She deadened it up, pushed the hook through, snipped the hook with side-cutters and backed it out. Cass didn't like the needle. She still wins tough girl points.

Cass didn't like the needle. She still wins tough girl points. That’s gotta be worth an ice cream cone at least? What was she fishing for and more importantly, did she catch anything except herself? I was digging around the other day and found a brand new Mitchell 200-201 spool (not the reel, just the spare spool) and the old users manual. I don’t fish Mitchell reels and I have no use for it so if you or any of our campfire regulars could use it themselves or for their kids or grandkids I’d be happy to send it to you or any one of our conservative campfire regulars. All I need is an address to send it to. Tight lines......and maybe pinched barbs? 😁

They left the jug lines in because they left in a hurry. They went back and collected them today. They had a big one on one of the lines. I'll see if I can get a pic.

Pretty little sportsman grand daughter you got there!
My old man pulled one through my nose when I was about 5. Next day I stuck a cypress splinter deep in my big toe. I'll take the hook any day.
