One time me and my buddys were Steelhead fishing on an Erie trib it was cold and the water slushy so you had to use alot of lead to get your fly to sink. Well anyways I sunk a size 8 hook right through my earlobe, looked like I was wearing a pink yarn earing.

When I was a kid, I had this Mickey Mouse fishing pole.
I was at the edge of this deck, and I swung my pole back but let the line out, well my sister was walking away from me on the same deck and the hook caught her in the back.

I've stuck myself, and stuck other people, but I've stuck more interesting things. One day about 6 years ago I was fishing from a tiny little bridge in FL, my lure got stuck on a twig or something down near the waters edge, I yanked the line very hard and my lure flew off the twig, flew over my head, and landed on the road behind me. I was like "whew, still got my lure" so I started reeling it in from the other side of the road, and out of nowhere a huge owl flys down and grabs it. I freaked out, and didn't know exactly what to do, but I just paid $8 for that lure. So as he flew off, I gripped onto the rod and starting reeling, I was looking straight up at the sky, reeling in a fucking owl. Drag was peeling off, and he was fighting like hell.
Finally got him to the ground and he was so tired he was panting, I put my knee across his body and neck area to stop him from biting the shit out of me, untangled my lure from his talons and let him go.
After that I stood up, and blood was pouring from every limb on my body. Nothing serious just scratches and bites everywhere. An owls beak and talons are no joke, I had no idea they were literally razors.
Got my fucking lure back.

Teaching myself to spey cast this summer & fall was kinda brutal at times. I had to unlearn the flinch I developed in leu getting hooked on the neck- thigh, pulling my hat off and clobbering myself in the back of the head with flies. Drawing blood once or twice. Totally worth it tho..

I watched a friend get hooked in the face when we was kids messing around in his yard. I hooked myself in the heel one night sleeping on the floor in my room. It was a bass worm hook up to the bend. Was kind of in between the skin and the flesh and I was able to cut it out with a razor. Luckily nothing on the water though. I have hit myself a few times.

Anyone learn the art of throw netting? I have a 10ft throw net I was trained by an old mexican friend of mine, who does throw netting for a living in mexico. He taught me a strange but really effective technique, the amount of free bait is just absurd. And I often catch larger stuff on accident, recently tossed my net on a school of huge mullet, could barely lift the net out of the water to free them. But I like smoked mullet and kept a few.

Yea mine opens to 7 foot. Mulllet and menhaden are gravy.My trips to the shore were often financed by mullet, at 50 cents a pound, didn't take more than 3 throws to fill a big red igloo cooler. Cast nets are illegal where I live but I threw on What I thought were suckers and ended up with a net full of Brown trout.
