Surgery on the canal-5:30 a.m. yesterday

[Swimmer]

My crimps wouldn't cut the shank. Tried that. One thing I am going to purchase, and put in a little first aid kit is a pair of cutters that will cut the VMC hooks and others.

Mike I didn't start adding up the cost of everythig that crapped out in the last two days I choked. Just threw in the med school for chits and giggles.

glad to hear you are enjoying your retirement Frank....

i'm glad it wasn't worse

great method kneeling on the bass

perhaps you'll crush some barbs before HAND (pun intended)

so extracting it woulda be easier....that is....since you have
plenty of time....

Great job Frank, sorry for your loss of pluggage

I always wonder if the pain we feel from a hook in the hand is the same for a bass with a hook in it's mouth?

Problems always come in three's so, I'd say your on to better pastures

...i dont think so...the mouths of these bass are so avascular so there can not be a lot of nerves and second, these fish are eating lobsters and crabs with spikes and claws and fish with sharp fins...i think they dont feel much 'pain'...
