Refresher Course...getting Hooks Out Of Your Anatomy

[Buzz]

Thanks for the refresher Al.

The first time I ever saw this attempted it was on a Bill Dance episode. He hooked himself in the hand with a crankbait. After showing how to make the line to pull it out he gave it a pull but the hook did not come out. From the look on his face I think he may have peed a little. He did manage to get the hook out on the second attempt, although he was bleeding profusely by then.

This technique works great and I've used it many times. I once got a stonefly nymph embedded in my ear lobe. It looked like stonefly earring .... kind of stylish. Anyway, I gave instruction to my wife and she was able to follow the directions and get it out on the first pull. PC
