Bill,
Speedy recovery. Was it anything out of the ordinary that caused it?

Hope it's getting better, #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&. That sucks...
Thinking about gloves as well - talked to Jim White earlier this year and also trying to get my head around what little info there is about mycobacteriosis (been seeing a number of the schoolies I've caught with lesions and nodules). I'm wondering if the slice/puncture resistant glove that is used in the food industry (and good for filleting) would work. If may be a lot of grief either trying to wear it all the time or put it on when landing a fish.....
At the moment I'm leaning toward using my (Berkley) lip gripper and pliers a lot more, and I have that large bottle of hydrogen peroxide in the car for a prelim wash-down when I stop fishing. Washing hands when home as well.
All the best and hope that you're back to fishing soon.

This is an interesting thread. Very educational. This season new in my bag is a boga grip and hook remover. I busted it out this season on my buddies boat and he was kidding me about it. He had his hand lodged in the bass's mouth and strugling to get the hook out. I lip griped him and took the hook out in about 5 seconds. A quick measure and then back in the drink. He was amazed and said he needed to get those items in his bag. With these 2 items I shouldn't really need gloves on the boat but I always use them when I fillet.

Maybe the fact that I've seen cleaner water in a sewage treatment plant then what is currently in the Bay is issue... |

Antibiotics
Doctor put me antibiotics on Thursday. 15 days due to a dorsal fin in the leg. Still hurts, but the oozing has stopped. I think I got mad-striped disease. Makes me crazy, fish have taken over my brain.

Put alcohol wipes in your bag and use them immediately on every nick and scrape. Definately nothing to mess with.
