Well found out first hand my shallow fry crankbait hooks are sharp and how a foul hooked fish feels. I was slamming crappie on this crank trying and expecting bass to bite it I did get 1 bass that took the hooks across the top of its head. The very next cast I ended up in a tree when casting into the wind. Well when I ripped it free the thing came screaming back at me it was like in slow motion it tried to matrix it but it hit me right in my right eye thankfully my oaklys deflected it away from my eye but burried both front and rear hookes into my fore head temple.

So now I'm freaking out my nephew is busy fighting a bass outa some stumps on a jig. Iv got blood running down my face into my mouth. Were in the canoe with to much crap between us for him to help so his punk arse pulls his phone out to video me ripping the thing outa my head.

I felt around figured out which way the hook was going it made a complete pass threw with the rear hook in my temple so I busted out the gerber and worked it back out basicly just ripped it out. Then the front hook in my forehead was just under the skin but past the barb it came out the same way just took 3 attemps first 2 just hurt a lot and tugged lol.

This was all in the first hour of a 5hr trip but I continued to fish got a crappie on the next cast. I still got yelled at for it by the wife when she asked what happend and I said karma she flipped but she's been nutty lately lol(she's 28 weeks prego)

In the future put ice on the wound to deaden the area and then remove the hook.

Or go to a doctor like I have done to have them removed surgically.

Tell your nephew to get punk-arse online and post up the video. :D

You are one tough son-of-a-rooster.

Haha!

Good thing you were wearing glasses man. That could've been ugly. Exactly why i try to wear some every time.

Yeah I'm trying to get the video on my phone it keeps saying the data is to big or some crap. If it wasn't for my sunglasses it woulda been in my eye for sure without a doubt.

I know someone that finished a day of fishing with a spook attached to his head...

And I've had a crankbait earring once...

At least you're OK now. Get a tetanus shot, man! Great story.
