GOT HOOKED again!
on: June 28, 2018, 06:08:32 AM
I met my wife Danni 23 years ago and was instantly hooked.  :drool: :tu: :cheers:
Well tonight's a little different... :facepalm:
Treble hooks are not as much fun... :whistle:

I was planning on starting my Rebar challenge on the first, but got an early start.

Just hurry up and wait at the ER now.
Wonder if the Doc would consider using my Classic instead of a scalpel.  :whistle:

I reckon some tiny ninjas were trying to attack poor old Doug using that mini grappling hook. I hope you managed to squish those ninjas dude - get well soon.

Treble hooks are not as much fun... :whistle:
What do you catch with them?
Not bass I'm guessing...
Actually it was a small black bass and the lure I was using had double treble hooks.  The bass flipped in such a way as to get hooked in the tail as well as the mouth.  When I remove the hook from his tail he flipped causing the hook to lodge in My middle finger. 

What do you catch with them?
Not bass I'm guessing...

Looks like it was fingers, not fish fingers, just plain fingers ......  :rofl:

I caught the fish, the fish caught the finger Birdy!!   :whistle: 

Fortunately Danni was with me and she was able to cut the line hold the lure and fish while I cut the eye of the hook to keep it from lodging any deeper.  Still had to cut the hook again at the ER so the dock could push it through.  She clouldn't get a clean cut to remove it due to the angle and how deep it was imbeded.
The Rebar cutters worked well on the hardened hook.
Fun Stuff... :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh : :rant: :rant:

Ninjas are no more and I'll heal up fine.
Adrenaline has finaly worn off and I'm getting tired so I'm calling it a night.
I'll check in when I decide to wake up later.  Hope everyone has a Blessed day.
Thanks for the well wishes.

Thanks Mags.  I did get a good nights rest.  Here's the current new look.  Not so bad, and surprisingly enough it really doesn't hurt. Just have to keep it clean.

Just dawned on me this along with a pic of the previous nights catch should qualify for the fishing badge.
So here is the catch I did get a photo of, and the repaired lure I used for everthing.  Yes I already replaced the treble hook I had to cut off last night.

Everyone, things like THIS are why I come back to MTO. We have class. We're honorable, helpful folks.

He caught a fish. A fish that was agitated and would probably become food. As the fish lacked a finger of his own to give, Douglas loaned him one.

Douglas, glad you are good, and so cool you were able to share the tale with pictures as well.

Did your wife think you were crazy taking photos?  Mine would, and left me at the hospital.   

But heck, you are a TEXAN, a tough Texan at that.

Good job and so glad the little rebar did as you needed.
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

She might have just a LITTLE bit,  I'm certain she dose now though.  I'm getting ready to go back out for another round tonight. 
The closest place to fish near where we live is a Small Lake pond about 3 hours away, so when on vacation at a real Lake (LAKE TEXOMA) I'm going to get in all the fishing I can.
