I fished for 6 hours, my thumb never really bothered me and, honestly, it did not really hurt all that bad, not like you would think. I would say that the pain was like a 3 on a scale of 1-10.
Same here, except, the silver was flailing around attached to the other hook, I was going to release the fish(how I got stuck in the first place), but I had to make it stop tugging on my finger, I clubbed it! Lots of blood after I cut the hook and slid the shank out of my finger. I was 10 miles off the coast, Westport, fishing solo! CnR for the next 3 hrs. Best salmon fishing of my life, I wasn't going to cut the trip short for anything. LOL Last Sept.

Sorry you had to go through that. I also know that tactic as shown in those videos and I actually used it successfully on someone who got hooked passed the barb.

However, I fish solo perhaps 99% of the time and this tactic seems as is shown on those videos to require a second person. If this happened to me while fishing alone and I was hooked where I couldn't use line to pull it, I would have definitely done it the way you did and hope I was current with my tetanus shot!

Yeah, I am not liking the looks of those videos. The way that I did it was painless. I tell you, it truly was. Poking the hook back through my thumb was hard but not because of the pain, yet because it was like leather. I could see the hook but not get it to poke through.

As far as the pain, it is almost like there are no nerves under the skin. You know, poke yourself in the thumb and it hurts, but from the inside out, nothing.

My shots are current:)

I love the line trick, but unfortunately when they're this deep your only option is a doctor. I kept fishing, but it didn't feel too good.

Trust me, that one WILL come out just fine. The line trick ANYTHING will come out, unless the hook is inside the bone.

I don't think it woulda worked for that one, the hook was turned all the way around so the shank was running parallel with my fingers. That thing was in there!

Thanks! That is good to know. I've always come close, but no cigar in hooking myself. :bom:
