Treble Hook Issues

The issue is that it ended up in my hand. I am not even sure if this should be posted in this forum but if not just move it. This is what happens when your wife throws her coat on your rod with a jerkbait and you be Mr nice guy by not cutting it out and trying to pull it out.

Daaaaang! That'll be sore for a few days!

Yeah I have never had one go that deep. It took a few tries to get it out and that was the tough part. Having to grab after you didnt rip hard enough just makes you not want to try again.

Wow I hope this never happens to me.

I would have pushed it through so the tip was exposed and cut off the tip/barb. Then it is easy to extract.

Did you try the hook trick using line? You'd probably have to cut the one hook off so it wouldn't rip that one too but the one on the right looks like a better candidate to pushing all the way through anyway.

Wow!!  Ouch. 

 

I hope it heals quick for you.

I tried twice to push it through and it was so deep it just wouldnt come out, thats when I decided to try and pull it with the pliers. When that didnt work I went with the line trick and after a few broken pieces of mono I went to yarn and it did the trick. It actually felt 100 percent back to normal yesterday.

99% of the time the line trick is the best way to go -
