Effin' Bloos are in...

Had my biggest bluefish ever today, swallowed a whole pogie. Pulled it onboard and was was going to release it. As I put the hookout tool in his mouth, he got me good. Sliced the top of my workinghand index finger from first to second knuckle, deep. Now I'm bleeding good. First aid kit, wrap tightly with gauze. Cut the leader, pitched him, and headed to the mooring. 2.5 hour visit in the ER for cleansing, closing and antibiotics..... at least I talked them into the glue sutures.
So they're in. And I am gonna get one of Clammer's bloofish behavior modification tools onboard tomorrow!
