Hooked up

Just a quick FYI , last trip a few days ago we had an accident.
Fish were blazing and then it happened.
Buddy in back stands up to land a fish .
Buddy in the middle goes to cast .....and
Yeppers you got it , buried a number 4 in the top of the standing buds ear!:yikes
Wear eye protection is the word , it sure would have been a horrible injury if it was in an eye .:highfive
Was really ugly in his ear and sure enough poured blood all over the place during and after removal....
The only good news is our sense of humor, all 3 of us were joking around about it 24 hours later....:Rofl

Yup seen it happen many times. When I was little I caught my dad. I don’t think we were joking about it though. :yikes

Put a treble hook in the top of my Dad's head years ago on his birthday none the less.

Dad's Mom hooked herself on the nose with a Cane pole. Never got any hooks. Did get a fillet knife through my left forearm.

When you have more than one person in the boat, you may have to alter your usual casting style, eg. side or even underhand. It sure could have been a lot worse than it was!

Ketchn I agree about eye protection. I also wear a 4" brim hat, it actually protects the eyes, head and ears.
