Go ahead have a laugh at my stupidity!
So I was assempling some plugs for the fest last night and putting them in the rafters. As I'm pulling my hand down after hanging one I pulled a true dum dum move, caught my hand on the belly hook. buried it to the bend  Wife says hospital I say get the camera. We took the pic after I had ripped it back and started pushing it back through the skin. So yeah, be careful and pay attention. |

I've come close to doing that before a few times, good thing I have tough skin, rusty hooks are even worse. |

I got myself a while back and put hook protectors on all my hanging plugs.Lucky it almost went all the way through easy push and snip.

Thats why I like the tubing for hook protectors. I have done that a few times as I have some hanging also and thank goodness I had the tubing on the barbs!

Crash
just be glad that hook was semi sterile and wasn't just in a Bass.
everyone has their battle scars... maybe your hook protectors
should be red instead of Clear....  |

I've done that several times a year hanging plugs. Fortunately almost all mine are barbless. Barbed treble hooks scare me.

HA! the only way to remove the curse is to send me a plug!
Hope it wasn't too bad and it heals quick! |

Welcome to the self hooking club. Many of us are members but only a few of us have the thought to take a picture. You can get a lot of mileage out of a self hooking. The picture of mine is on my back screen of my phone. When someone ask me if I have hooked anything lately I reply yes! and open the phone!

Its only art if it don't catch fish!
