wow yesterday me an my uncle went fishing an at about 2.20 pm i went to cast my lure and some how it nailed me in the head. it felt like i had been punched by some one.i soon realized that one of the hooks was deeply enbeded in my head. well neadess to say we went to shore an back home and i fidled wit it for an hour or so.then we went to the ER and they had to numb my head with needles and then pull the hook all the way through ,cut the barb off.and then pull it out the way it came in :-?it was a bit ironic that i was using "bleeding" hooks lol ;D

P.S ill be sure to get some pics of it on in the next day or so

I know that's painful because i caught myself in the head many years ago.

Fortunately they where barbless hooks!

Man, I'm sorry for your pain.  

it didnt feel good but after i stopped messin around wit it i couldnt tell it was there until i would touch it or something

P.S that lure will never hit the water again ( bad luck ) lol

I did that 2 days in a row > Both times I had on a hat and the treble hooks went through my hat and into my head. I had my buddy use pliers and rip the hooks out (very painful) :-/ It happened because I was using a 4 foot rod and a rapala jerkbait. When I would cast overhand, the rapala would come very close to my head. Needless to say, after two days of trebles in the head, I retired that little rod

did that one time catching little yearling bass underneath a railroad trussel with a rooster tail had a little light action rod just for fun and whipped up and over and wham luckily the hook didnt go too deep and i was able to pull it out myself with little pain.

lol when it happened to me it pinned my hat to my head an we had to cut part of it...i did it wit a 5/8 ounce crank one trevle was completly in my head  

I know your pain.  I left the hospital last month for the same thing..    

Who says fishing's not a contact sport.  

idk but he sure was wrong ;D i cant wait to post some pics 8-)
