Safe, painless hook removal - Video
Gink & Gasoline
There are two kinds of fishermen. The ones who have hooked themselves and the ones who are about to. It’s a bad feeling the first time you put a big streamer hook in yourself past the barb. You feel pretty helpless if you don’t know how to handle it. I’ve done it many times and I’m here to tell you that there is an easy, and even painless, way to get that hook out. As a veteran guide, Kent has had to do it plenty and he’s a master. He’s taken hooks out of clients without them even knowing it was done.
We’ve been wanting to do this video for some time. We kept waiting for one of us to get hooked but it hasn’t happened so I decided to take things in hand and hook myself, so we could show you how to deal with it. I have to say, it was harder to get that hook in past the barb than I thought.
So watch and learn and please, share the video with someone. I don’t want to do this again!
