Ouch!

I guess we've all had our moments like that.

I was fishing early one morning in my jammies a couple of months ago and snagged a top-water bait....when I finally jerked it loose it fired back at me and hit me in the very upper leg...two treble hooks went thru the thin pajama pants. I worked on getting it out pulling hard for 45 mins....finally I had to head towards home and a local ER clinic.

Walking into a crowded ER waiting room with torn high upper leg pajamas and a top-water bait dangling from my exposed upper leg was a bit embarrassing to say the least. One old blue hair lady whispered to her husband "my God look at that guy".





Fishing has never been about the fish....
