Yeah man you gotta get pictures! Every one loves to see that stuff, that way we know we aren't the only dummies to do it.

I did it a couple weeks ago myself as well. I couldn't cut through the hook with my left hand. I was waiting for Skippy to come over, but I think he got lost following his GPS again.
I had to call a friend to come over to cut it and push it through my arm.
Skippy only saw the aftermath.

Skippy might not have been much help, lol. I recall him having to run away before he puked when he saw someone get a hook in their arm at the ditch.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Now that you mention it, I kind of remember hearing about that.

And I'll post mine!
 
Sorry, but my hooking disaster was with a very small treble in the tip of my pinkie, so I don't think it really qualifies.
Think of it this way.....At least you got it out of the way early in the season and not during, say, the fall run???
