remember your last one? probably something we as fishermen should think about once in a while. only reason i thought of it was that i found a card with the date of my last one, thanks to a 3/0 treble.

I had one 2/98 when I broke my leg and underwent surgery. Then another one in 2001 when I was bitten by a dog at work. I couldn't remember if I got one in 1998 so they gave me one for good measure.

We should get them much more frequently for all of the cuts and partial hook implants

we go thru every year...

I thought someone hear once suggested you take ten years and minus one year every time you 5 times you draw blood from a hook while fishing... For me, that would be every two years or so

I got one about 18 months ago when a bluefish induced a Surf Howdy trebble thru one side of my hand finger and out the other out on blank's Bar...
