  1. Any hook can. I knew a champion billfisherman named Kunta. He was in a tournament off the Azores and stepped just right on a big marlin hook. The African doctors on the mainland wanted to amputate his foot. Hence Kunta. His name was Kurt Smith.

  2. Haha! I got one stuck on my ass a few years ago. A truck came by with 4 rednecks deer hunting a I waved them down. One of the used a pair of pliers I had and yanked it out for me. That’s a sure nough funny story. 😂😂

  3. I slipped while reaching for something the other night and put a 4X VMC treble through my left ring finger. Luckily it was sharp and went in one side and out the other. Because it happened where I have my fishing stuff, I had my bolt cutter handy and just cut the hook point off.

  4. I did this same thing to my ear trying to learn fly fishing. It came right out. It hooked my ear lobe and almost tore thru the little bit of ear it hooked. Hurt like hell.

    That definitely ruined a good day of fishing…and hopefully beer drinking. Did that require the ER?

    When I was a kid around 10 years old, my dad threw the rod over his shoulder to cast it far and the hook caught on the bridge of my nose like this!! 2-3 inches from my eye yo

    I’m old school. Grab it good and twist while pulling. Only takes a second. I’ve done it about 5 times in 50y of fishing.
