Practice what you teach

I had one last weekend, ended up pulling it out because was also still tangled in the net. It's no fun, but a finger isn't as bad as an eye. Glad to hear to was an easy fix for you.

Yep if you fish long enough it will happen. Had it twice last year. Did the line trick easy out and didn't even get sore.

The line trick is good to know - works like a champ depending on where the hook is stuck - really the same thing they'd do at the hospital but they'd give you a shot to numb it - and a nice bill. I have the tool made up with 30 lb mono and keep it in the boat along with a pair of cutters. I've used it twice - unfortunately both times it was on ME -haha.
