Lots of cuts. Some long and deep.
I suppose the worst was falling into a big trench dug by clam diggers while out at Monamoy. It must have been 4 feet wide , 3 feet deep and 12 feet long. It was covered by the smallest amount of incoming tide and the sun glaring off the water surface. hurt my knee when I fell. Happened just a few minutes after being dropped off by the water taxi so i hade a long day ahead of me. stayed in deep water up to my chest to keep the weight down and fished (what else can you do out there?)
.
I think falling amounts for most of the serious fishing accidents and injuries.
