Looks worse in the picture than it did out on the water. Guess you're gonna lay low for a while.

Yup me too. Happened at Texoma. It is a good idea to carry a heavy duty pair of cutters with you, a lot better than having a lure hanging off your finger. Fished for a while longer, drove back home to Garland and over to Care Now to get it extracted. Mine healed very quickly, hope yours does the same!

Emergency room? How about a sharp knife and a bullet?

what part of the hook do you put it around? One of the 3 trebles hooks or the base where all 3 meet?

I believe you put the line around the belly of the hook that is embedded in the flesh.

http://www.aafp.org/afp/20010601/2231.htmlThis method works well, I first saw it on a Jimmy Houston fishing show a couple years ago and had to use it about a month ago on Grapevine. It popped right out and the guy I removed it from said he hardly felt it. I used the yank method. Of course it didn't hurt me at all.  Sorry to hear of your pain.

I had a striper plant a treble in my palm Friday way past the barb. Of course, he was nice enough to flip and rip it out too. Hurt a bit but was more concerned with catching the next one. Palm was bad enough, I can't imagine a finger. Yeesh!!!

A couple of years ago I got one in my finger, went to the E.R. doctor went to his car and brought in some rusty dic's pushed it through after deadening my finger and it only cost $500.00. The next time a friend of mine set the hook an a top water black bass and missed, it stuck me in the lip, it took me a while to push the hook through but I didn't have to pay the $500.00.

Looks like that hurt. My nephew once got a treble embedded in his knuckle and we had to take him to the ER. We couldn't pop it out. Use Lindy gloves now. Never touch a fish with a topwater in its mouth or a hybrid without the gloves. I know it may slow me down some but I feel its well worth it. Why take the chance? Its not a matter of if its gonna happen but when.

The same happened to me more times than I can remember. It seems to always be hybrids that cause this. My solution has been very effective and it is my policy now. Just pinch down the barbs on the hook. The hook will still go in, but it will also back out very easily. You may lose a few fish, but you will save a trip to the doctor too. It is also easy on the fish if they are being released. YEP---That is the law in our boat now. I have a pair of needle-nose vice-grips that do a great job of really pressing the barbs down flat. I also think we catch more fish since they are easier to take off and get you back in the action quicker.

The technique mentioned above works pretty well. I've done it a few times. If you fish a lot, getting a hook in you is gonna happen sooner or later. Make sure to keep your tetanus shots current.
