One treble in fish, the other in me.
I couldn't cut the barb off by myself, so I had to motor over and ask for help from another boat that had three guys fishing on board....with red and white Crystal Minnow dangling from my finger as I waved them down.

Always hate to get hooked.
Which is worse hookin yourself or when the other guy gets you.

I am glad we are both in the draw for the next NFGFC tournament. That way I don't have to worry about you.

So I take my kid fishing I throw a rattle trap in a tree and snatch hard to get it out.
It comes flying back and I get stuck in the thigh.
We are close to the ramp and head back. He goes to the cabin to get my wife.
She shows up with the van out come the tools. They ask if they can help.
I say sure and I explain the process, they suggest ER as an alternative.
I say why? They are just going to do this and out it comes.
They think I am a freak what can I say jar-heads don't call for a medic unless something is blown off. Sorry Reggie.

I caught a really big chick at Poseys about 26 years ago. Does that count since I have not kept a Cobia?
