This is a buddy of mine attempting to extricate a hook lodged in his finger. Considering his situation I think he did OK, but I just mailed him a pair of heavy duty wire cutters. I am posting this as a reminder to be careful and make sure you remember those pliers.

(PS. I told him to purchase that pink mirrolure because it will catch anything. I didn't realize that included people.)

OUCH!!!! Been there but had a little easier time since the hooks were thinner wire.

For quality offshore hooks you need bolt cutters.

looks like he had a syringe of local sitting there. I have done that pulling an 11/0 out of my foot.....no local anesthetic, I did have a scalpel to cut the skin open and get the tip of the hook out, foot skin is pretty tough.....either way, looks like a fun afternoon.
