I had a super sticky treble go into my finger Straight down just above the cuticle past the barb.  That was one the most painful thing I’ve ever had happen to my hand.  I was by myself and couldn’t do the string trick due to the angle the hook went into the nail. No way for it to come out any other way to cut it off either. I finally was able to move it around enough to get the barb to clear the nail and it popped right out. Bled for a good while. Then about a month later I ended up with a hole that slowly grew down my finger nail until it got to the tip of the nail. 
 

I’ve only ever had one other hook past the barb and my brother in law who is a doctor helped me get it out with the string trick.  He couldn’t believe it worked and that it hardly bled after it came out.
