I did something like that to my buddy Tim about 15 years ago. I was fishing the front of the boat and he was fishing the back. He came through the windshields while I was casting and took a deep breath in as the treble entered his tear duct. Luckily, 20 something guys have a lot quicker reaction than I do now because I stopped the cast immediately and turned around with the rod held lightly in my hands. We were over an hour away from the nearest marina so it fell to me, with a pair of needle nose pliers, to veeerrrrrrry gently pull the treble (buried past the barb) from my buddy. His vision and eye were barely affected and we fished a couple hours more...

OMG.... THAT SUX!!! i was on the boat with someone this past summer and we were sitting close out of a 3 seater boat. i was casting a spinner bait and the wind blew the bait to the left. i did'nt know this but i casted and the hook grabbed the guide on my partners rod and with full force wailed 'em in the head with his own rod. it was a close call.. {0}}
Never be afraid to try, remember...

I work in an ophthalmology practice and this is actually more common than what most folks think. A 3/4 oz jig head coming free from a snag has nearly the velocity of an arrow being shot from a compound bow. Add a 1/0 hook to the equation and you can see a recipie for disaster. However, most fishermen only wear sunglasses during bright light conditions rather than realizing the safety benefits of protective eyewear at all times.
This concept is part of a seminar presentation I have given a few times and would be happy to do it again for the club or a club sponsored event.

This thread should be REQUIRED VIWEING at least twice a season as everybody who uses sharp hooks in the persuit of their hobby really needs to see just what can happen. This was posed under the "three men in a boat" scenario, but accidents can (and do) happen, even when your by yourself (i.e. pulling a lure out of a tree, etc).
Matt, I would like to copy this to some other sites. Know who I can get proper permission to do that from?
