Just like the title. For me, it was when my little brother hooked my arm past the barb on a cast and I got it out and told him to scoot over. The very next cast he somehow hooks the back of my leg... 

I felt a twinge when I set the hook on a bass. It didn't hurt that bad at that moment, but it got worse fast. I had tendonitis for 8 months afterward.

Not on the water, but I hooked my thumb past the barb with a rusty treble while just being a in stupid

Wouldn't it be funny if your little brother wrote-saying what his big brother did TO HIM after he hooked you.

Haha it would be very funny... 

I got stuck by a catfish in the meaty part of my hand . I got dizzy with  cold and clammy   sweats and had to lay down for several minutes .

Stepping off the ladder into shallow  water and getting a hook stuck in my heel.

 

Off to the hospital as it was stuck in my plantar facia..........water shoes for now on

I had to poop with no toilet paper...multiple times

For painful, I would have to say getting a treble hook stuck in my thumb between the skin & the nail while the fish was still attached to the other treble.  The pain came from the fish flopping & jumping, I had to press him against the side of the boat to get him to stop moving in order to begin unhooking both of us.  Once he was gone, the pain of the hook in the thumb wasn't much, so I clipped the hook down to a small section & continued fishing.  It was 6:00 am and I wasn't going to waste the morning going to a doctor.  Went later that afternoon to have it removed.

 

Less painful but more exhausting was getting stuck knee high in some mud at the back of a small lake in Georgia this past March.  I tried to take a short cut across a feeder creek, marshy area & found out why people don't take short cuts there.  After struggling for 15 minutes trying to extricate myself, I ended up laying flat across some branches and pulling my legs out of my boots (& then pulling the empty boots out of the mud).  The anxiety of being stuck was increased because I had seen a small gator about 15 minutes prior to that, not more than 50 yards from where I got stuck.  Dumb Californian out in the Georgia backwoods...

I took a tumble crappie fishing last summer under a bridge and my right elbow hurt for two months after.

 

Here is a funny and slightly painful story. One of my best friends bought an 18' Skeeter and I had just gotten off of active duty and was home for the summer. We were fishing a boulder dam and he pulled out a pack of huge Power Bait grubs and they were bright yellow. He casts, and I here him softly say "Here we go." He reels down and sets like he is trying to hook an alligator gar on a Barbie pole. This 10" bullhead comes flying out of the water and smacks me dead center in the chest. It just about knocked me out of the boat. 

Catfish barb

I caught the nastiest catfish I've ever seen at Lake of the Ozarks.  He shook the hook as he landed on the dock and I didn't want to push him in with my hand so I kicked him in.  With my bare feet.  Ended up with a 3 inch long gash that bled for a few hours and took weeks to heal.  It was also on the bottom of my foot so I had to walk like an idiot everywhere I went.

The time a bullhead's barb managed to go in one side of my hand (the fleshy part between the finger bones in my hand) and out the other side.  It burned like nothing else I have ever felt before.

A few years back I was fishing the surf by myself off of a long jetty (Half Moon Bay) where you need to hop rocks the whole way out and back.  On the way back I jumped to a rock and heard the sound of a rubber band snapping and something in my calf popping.  I had to slowly butt crawl my way over the rocks until I got to some sand and then limp/hop back to the car.  Partially tore a calf muscle and to this day there's a north-south divot in my right calf.  Haven't gone back since, now it's just the beach to surf fish.

Wow....so many....but the biggie that sticks with me right now was when I was going through acute pancreatitus and fishing.  Could hardly stand up straight a lot of times but after months of being on my butt I would try and get out.  Once I was on Chick and very hungry so went in for a sandwhich...it was a BLT and was amazing....two hours later was curled up on the back deck.  Two hours later after that I was in ER....next day fishing again but eating much lighter.   Haven't had a BLT since!

OUCH!! did this bring back memories of when you were younger and what you might have done to him? the good side is the story you both will be able to tell your kids or grandkids later in life. fishing sure does have many great aspects like getting the family together  or "hooking" someone on the sport in your case

I would have handled it much better if it happened today haha!

Peeing red over the side of the boat due to passing kidney stones.

Someone may relate to this, I was lowering my trolling motor earlier this year when...

 

I pulled on the handle to release the lockdown pin, easy right, well the rope snapped and I went flying back toward the back of the boat when my rib cage slams against my rod locker and I at minimum separated some ribs, probably broke one or two.

 

I am glad I was alone for the embarrassment, but it still hurt like a ******!

Two years ago my old man hooked me in the back of the head with a crank bait.  We were standing in fairly close proximity on the front deck and SMACK something hit me hard.  Buried a couple treble hooks from that one.  I felt like I was gonna faint.  Had to have them removed after an injection of lidocaine in the head to numb up the area.  I don't let others on the front deck with me anymore for this reason.

Could write a book on this subject.

But the one most painful thing was getting a 5/0 hook in my right eye.I would rather not tell the story again.Anything else( catfish barbs, bee stings,hooks in other areas ) pales in comparison.

The run in with an oyster bed was the runner up though....?

did this one twice yesterday

 

Braid?
