Yeah, that fish flop and tugging on the hook sure didn't help.

Hook Removal From Hand 101

I have only taken two hooks in my whole life. Both times here on these little fish.

Yes, those feisty little ones are the ones that get you.

Next time flip in boat leaving plenty of line off the tip. Grab fish and other hand is pliers.

Bigger plug I have sometimes just grabbed the plug and now I control it until I have a better grip on fish.

Coulda woulda shoulda. Happens fast!

One trip to the ER was enough for me, thanks.

I like that you made sure the fish didn't need medical attention.
