Default remember to stay safe and wear sunglasses or this can happen

remember to stay safe guys, no matter how confident you are, the fish can be the one who snaps the lure into your self.

went fishing on a river as seen there, but the fish let go of the rapala and snapped into the eye. just remember to keep your eyes protected guys.

First thing I would have done was cut the line .
2nd thing would of been taking that front hook off so you dont get pierced again . Bet he wears sunglasses of some sort from now on .


I was guiding a fella and his son few years back , and the kid put a big 5 of diamonds in the back of his head . I had said the whole day better wear a hat , but didnt want to listen . none the less , first thing i did was cut the line , had his dad hold him while I took the treble hook off the split ring , then a trip to the hospital . Would have been easy to get out I would have used forceps to hold the hook then with side cutters cut the one treble then pulled it threw .

Thank god for people that follow the no barb law here .
