IN this “watch-through-your-fingers” video, American fisho Lonny Brooks from Fishing Addicts Northwest manages to hook himself in the lip with a minnow lure’s treble.
Brooks was out fishing for steelhead (sea-run rainbow trout to us…) when he hooked and landed a nice fish. While leaning down to take a picture with his trophy, the fish started to flop and the treble hook ended up in the fisho’s face. Ouch!
He proceeds to remove the hook with a pair of pliers (not a recommended way of going about it…).
Not for the squeamish!
