Goose, I missed this the first time around. That does stink, though I'll bet the hand is alot better now than the rod. I had a similar thing happen to me a few years ago, with the fish hooked with one treble, my thumb with the other.
Not cool... took the doctor a while to get it out, but at least my thumb was numb from the local.
I was lucky in a way, the back hooks broke off the atom popper when the fish thrashed (that's how hard he yanked), and I didn't have the addition of bluefish teeth to contend with.
Of course, then I had to drive myself to the doctor, and I had my truck which was a stick shift.
I hope you're healin' up ok.
