Dude in pain's thought bubble: "Can you stfu and take the hook out!"

[@UltraAtomic1]

😂😂😂

[@keijohoo]

Nah there's no pain anymore at that point :)

[@adrianbarnes3808]

I know..... Already healing lol

[@davidcalderwood4131]

I'm a doctor in a ER and this technique worked great. Thanks. AND don't pull on "3". Pull on "2". Thanks for sharing this.

[@mindybamburg8966]

You guys are awesome. Just used this trick to save our 8 year old boy a lot of suffering. From the bottom of our family's heart thanks for posting this trick.

[@davidoberlin4186]

how dramatic.

[@IslandLifeFishing]

Thats awesome

[@ellenhal1537]

already have caught a 30# Blue Cat off of these (going to try to get a 60#+ next year). kzbin.infoUgkxzXmlErSqVAEGWFEKO530BvTqFDw53QW3 Definitely very strong, and sharp. Additionally, the gap is wide enough to actually hook a fish (not always the case with circle hooks). I purchased the 8/0, but probably should have got the 9/0 (they seem slightly smaller than other 8/0 hooks). Additionally, having the point in-line helps if you drift fish. I have yet to get a serious snag with one of these hooks.

[@ZEDNANREHIGH]

Or you can cut his hand off and use it as bait.

[@ethan9810]

Chill lol

[@ananomus6111]

shark fishing only

[@fluoridaman2332]

or you can just not fish

[@alb9022]

"or you can just not fish" Minus the fact that almost all recreational hobbies, if not all, come with some kind of risk, no matter how trivial....

[@kennyjohnson703]

Lol

[@fishn365]

Was up near Lake George and a fellow got one hook of a treble stuck in his finger. I had just told my buddies about this episode of your show, so it was up to me to give it a shot. My one friend removed the treble from the crankbait, using a multi-tool to cut the split ring, and not the eye. I then made two lines up with loops. Another fisherman distracted the victim and "POP"!! out it came. He didn't even realize it was out! He was back fishing. Thanks again. Great show..

[@G_The_Fishing_Reel_Tor]

This video need to be reposted every week. Chad this is true amazing and real information! Thank you!

[@ChadHooverFishing]

Thanks brother, I appreciate that

[@ChadHooverFishing]

I could have gotten it out a lot faster, but I was trying to get him to look away. I finally just went ahead and jerked it out. Besides, he wasn't really going anywhere..... :) He did do a great job and this little accident turned into a great opportunity to demonstrate the hook removal technique.

[@wildncrazyguytv]

Thank you. I was in a bind today. Your vid saved a trip to the emergency room!

[@computerguy1724]

OOOOH, that tendon part SKEERED me! But one heck of a job. That was nothing short of AWESOME! The victim was one tough dude I got woozy watching. LOL

[@lolkobe]

Great mentor obviously. Being able to remember this stuff and carry it out with such fluidity is very admirable. Nice work and thanks for the how-to

[@johnhughes8939]

Nice job

[@NickC9545]

I followed every step of this tutorial. Not only did I get the hook out but now I speak with a nice Alabama accent.

[@ChadHooverFishing]

Ha! That’s perfect

[@derffy31]

I just used your vid to remove two of the three hooks on a treble from my leg. Thanks for the info. This allowed me to continue my day after hooking myself on the second cast of the trip and an 9 inch bass.

[@ChadHooverFishing]

Glad the video helped. Thanks for the comment and for watching

[@DJdext]

Best hook removal vid I've seen on YT. Now can you bee with me every time I fish just in case i get a hook stuck in me?

[@ChadHooverFishing]

Yes, just look this video up. LOL

[@ChadHooverFishing]

From the guy that doesn't even have his own KZbin Channel name. Fraud.

[@tainterlakeisgreen]

I've had a hook in my skull (behind my ear) and in the finger joint of my thumb. Both were removed by my Dad using this technique. I never felt pain during either.

[@bloupeeiii]

Understatement at :43 "Chris has got a pretty good hook in his hand." lol

[@just_mark6396]

Hi from 7 years ago!

[@KayakBassFishing]

We just finished another shoot for Kayak Bassin and I received several requests for a closer look at this technique. So, I used a treble and more visible line to demonstrate the technique on myself. We should have it up pretty soon. It was a lot more difficult that I expected to hook yourself and really get the hook buried. - Chad

[@RameyRocks]

Oh my gosh that made me feel weak! I was actually looking for a video on how to remove treble hooks from fish because I've never used lures and want to try.

[@fishinfool3795]

Basically, in this situation (which I've been in multiple times) I would push the hook point through, including the barb, and then cut the hook at the base of the treble and slide it out. Less painful and damaging. I went back to fishing both times.

[@ChadHooverFishing]

I will add that to our shot list for our next shoot. That is definitely something that we should cover, thanks for the suggestion. - Chad

[@michsabesaje7577]

Watching this year 2023, it really helped me to help my cat with a fish hook buried in his paws. I also spent hours pulling the fish hook and it only hurts him more and it only got more and more locked too, so I started searching and your demo did not disappoint me. More power to your chanel thank you ..

[@captainsaxton4021]

how big was he also w you for spending so much time trying to help him

[@giancac9977]

I have been fishing for ten years and have yet to hook myself badly... Now that I am married and my wife comes with me... I have seen more close encounters hahaha.... Will keep this video in my back pocket and I am dreading the day one of us gets hooked! Thanks for the info!

[@ChadHooverFishing]

+Gianca C Great idea. I haven't hooked myself (except on purpose) but I have had other people hook me and hook themselves that I have had to remove. Definitely something that fishermen should know and be able to execute.

[@johnathanbillwright4526]

Gianca C I've been bass fishing for 4 years fishing in general since I was born and I've hooked myself plenty of time

[@8180634]

Just wait till you have kids! My son plopped a fish in my lap, promptly hooked me in the thigh. My method was turn it through with pliars, real fast before i realized that it hurt, cut the barb then pull it out. I like this guy's technique better, only 1 hole and he saved the hook! Difficult to do yourself though.

[@hankruffin]

One of the best demonstrations I've seen to date. Awesome instruction as usual Chad!

[@dsberube]

The guy who removed that hook handles that like a gangster. Very good and helpful tips to save a lot of misery from doing it wrong.

[@markbelden6919]

I hope I never need it, but you are one hell of a hook removal expert,

[@gageshallow3256]

This video helped me so I know how to get a hook out when I need it.

[@russellanderson876]

not sure where you learned this kinda stuff, but it's really awesome. Great job Chad!

[@shaunroberts9361]

This was one of the best VLOGS I ever seen.. Again thank you very much.. Very Very good on how to pull a treble hook out of the hand Just awesome for sure.

[@ChadHooverFishing]

Thanks and I am glad you enjoyed it.

[@maaz4377]

I am sittting in a hospital with a treble hook stuck in my arm while watching this video

[@ChadHooverFishing]

Thanks for the feedback. That really was the point. To save time, money, pain and most importantly the rest of the fishing day. - Chad

[@nickg2366]

Started with confidence... Slowly started to get nervous about pulling it out... Soon as it was out, confident yet again!!!

[@ChadHooverFishing]

Was confident the whole time. Pulled out hundreds, it’s just tougher to video it while having yourself in one kayak, the other Angler in another kayak and then the camera guy in another kayak. Confidence was no problem, coordination, that was another story. Lol

[@rdick218]

This is EXACTLY why I replaced ALL the trebles with circle hooks....... It also makes the lures almost weedless, and you get to release healthier fish too! But thank you much for sharing because I do still fish with folks that won't make the switch.

[@johnnyblaze2620]

awesome vid Chad! Flukemaster is right when he said you're a walking encyclopedia.

[@razajedi7742]

Great tip have never seen this been done well worth the watch. Thanks

[@garrettbezdek3945]

Watched this vid A year or two ago and always kept the knowledge in my head and never thought it would happen to me but the other day has to use it to get a treble out of my thigh

[@BPmorphdude]

Great video well done! That same thing happened to me as a kid from a bass I caught that was flopping around, but I ended up going to the hospital!!

[@joejoehiggins]

That fella knew his stuff and made it look easy.

[@andyfernandez9695]

Your vids are great. I have learned so much

[@ChadHooverFishing]

Thank you. Glad you like them

[@jetskijay1955]

I had a doctor tell me on 3, 1,2,3. Ahh What the hell you pulled it on 1! I wasn’t ready doc. Good you weren’t suppose to be he reply’s.

[@dustinhyde1103]

had one in my finger today hit a tendon but i relaxed the finger and it let loose from the tendon luckily. Nice video.

[@mrwilson5013]

Great advice and simple instructions

[@elmerthudpucker7986]

Great technique!! Have had to do it a couple of times. Learned how from Bill Dance show years ago. Again, good job!

[@paullopes6236]

As always, great video brother!!

[@boogerboy1265]

Mono has lots of stretch and doubling it up does help with that. But if you have braid that's the best way to go because it has 0 stretch and all you have to worry about is the line breaking which is un likely.

[@RaymondWells]

Nice job Chad great instruction, thanks.

[@MasteringHow-To]

Wow! The kind of friend you want on every fishing trip

[@wickedoutdooradventures6694]

Thanks for sharing....I just subscribed to your channel and trying to learn how the ins and outs of Kayak Fishing

[@liamaaronduran]

Where were you at when I had the same damn hook in the same damn spot last year....?

[@TOKKELENANGLERS]

awesome video keep up the good work

[@marcoaurelio___]

Ótima dica, parabéns.

[@BillE20101]

I've only had one treble hook caught in my hand on the back near the base of my thumb (so far). I got a nearby grandfather and his grandson (young fellow), to help me get the fish off the hook. I took my angle cuts and cut the top of the hook from the lure. As I proceeded to grab the hook with my needle nose pliers and curl the hook point out from inside the skin, I looked over at the mans grandson, he was white as a sheet, thought he would faint. I snipped off the barb and pulled it out... ; >)

[@samuelbalsamo1616]

worked like a charm Thanks!

[@thegoldenman54]

The ending was cool lol nice video

[@IslandLifeFishing]

Awesome video guys

[@Gerardo11]

Great info, Thank you guys. Fish On!!!

[@boblock8942]

Great video!!

[@Geraldorossoni1]

Não entendo muito, menos sei ingles(muito menos portugues) mas o cara é tão bom e gesticula tanto que entendi como tirar a garateia sem dor(além da que existe). Um aprendizado importante já posso precisar um dia.

[@fabfishing7422]

This is just Pure Awesomeness!!! 💪💪

[@andrewtrask9650]

It works I have done it 2 times comes out easy that's for the tip the first time

[@billmarkelz]

Good tip on the tendon grab!

[@ericzschiesche]

Barbless is a good approach..... Happy fishing !!

[@bankmaster5104]

100% I did this yesterday and it work...

[@lifelongfit5997]

Great technique! Awesome info👍👍thk u

[@nathan6519]

I went to a doctor's office to get a hook out. He said you don't wanna do it this way because the barb can catch things and rip muscle or tendons on the way out. He said to push the hook through and pop it through the skin then cut the barb then the remaining part of the hook will just slide out without any issue.

[@angy97]

Pushing the barb out is the correct way without risking tearing any tendon inside. Use ice to numb the area first, sanitize the hook too.

[@glencarsonmceachern7834]

Love the video 📹

[@LTDanno360mods]

Got the same floating rapalla stuck in my head 2x and once in my nose after that 3x's hookin myself dad refused to fish in the boat with me when i fished with it the shits of it is ..best dam lure i ever used skunked him every time lmao

[@wortha220]

thats man right there is a fishermans best friend

[@ryn7457]

I love fishing

[@GoopgaGaming]

He only had 1 part of the trebble hook in him, Another way is to turn the hook push it out of the skin, Cut the barb off, and pull it back through.

[@ChadHooverFishing]

GoopgaGaming not with the short shank on a treble hook, then you have two wounds and potential places for infection and cutting a hook is a lot harder than it sounds and most people don't have anything with them to cut it even if they could. This tutorial is designed to show the option that is easiest to accomplish with what you have available.

[@GoopgaGaming]

KayakBassinTV I got hooked by a worm hook one time, I pushed it through clipped the barb off and pulled it right out, And then sterilized the wound, I was just stating that there is another way about doing this.

[@Coldrin6]

Aarons117 . I always take pliers fishing, but I just use them to jank the hook out instead of making another hole.

[@JamesFisherfrilleddragons]

Chad Hoover I had a treble get stuck in between my pinky and ring finger on my right hand. My wife was in the other kayak. I had her come over and cut the line to my rod. I ended up having to force it through my skin and clip it lol wife was no help haha. I carry a heavy set of wire snippers just for this situation. I tried your way and that sucker was NOT gonna come out. The barb was grabbing too much meat.

[@Menamejosh]

I did that and it is so much more painful to push the barb out and cut it off and the hook was only a little size 4 crappie hook

[@NautiFish1]

LEGIT video!!

[@johnhemphill6871]

Good video, I personally bend in my barbs so if I get hooked it would slip right out. Sure more fish get away, but damn I hate getting hooked lol

[@diggity2966]

That smooth as silk!!!

[@Heli4G3]

This is EPIC!!!

[@johnbates8964]

Outstanding! "This trick is going in the tackle box'!

[@KayakBassFishing]

I have a small kit that I usually carry to make doing this easy. For this video, I didn't have it with me and it was nice to show how to improvise. I am filming in Florida this week, so I will shoot a second part of this video where I hook myself and demonstrate how to remove the hook with close ups on the set up. I will also show how to make a easy kit to carry in your gear bag.

[@dazmalski]

Like Negan would say: "Takin' it like a Champ!"

[@martinjrsaucedo8598]

Extreme Weather My Man! 👌

[@slowfaller]

Put several long strands of 65 lb braid in my first aid kit on my boat just in case!

[@Hisslave1]

A piece of 80# mono works much better, won't cut you.

[@josephsaeteurn9158]

that was awesome.. it looks bad but that was so simple how you did it.

[@isaacsanchez5887]

Well done!

[@III-pk3xm]

Very nice!!

[@dejavu666wampas9]

Another option. Rather than the line holding the shank down, and the bother of setting that up, just put a finger on the hook shank and press it down onto the victim’s skin, and jerk the business end of your rescue line. A little bit simpler. Good info video though. This trick works.

[@think9091]

Good tip!

[@goofboy247]

I just had this happen to me yesterday on the Caney Fork. I wish I would have known this trick before! I had to push the treble hook back out of my hand so my buddy could cut the bard off with my rusty needle nose. I never want to do that again!

[@haviick1014]

Bruh what a chad though. didn't even flinch.

[@ChadHooverFishing]

👊🏻

[@ChadHooverFishing]

Thanks brother

[@rick4691]

That was amazing

[@rc3291]

Good video. The angle it is embedded might make a difference in technique used. Only one I've had experience with we pushed it on through after cutting the eye off.

[@fluzzles]

Fish be like: Wanna hang around?

[@ChadHooverFishing]

😂😂😂

[@handleismyhandle]

This happened to me in the middle of nowhere and after a few minutes of sitting there with a hook in my hand, I resolved that I had to push it all the way through my finger and cut the barb off. It took some balls to do it, but it worked. Healed in a few days.

[@portfeed]

nice method man

[@BryanSarauer]

Man, Chris is patient!

[@damianowens5066]

Barbless hooks from now on! That made my toes curl 👍

[@buddyruff6520]

I seen a video of a hook in someone's eyeball😵

[@robertfossey1798]

Wow exalent idea good work

[@ChadHooverFishing]

Thank you

[@chulzart]

Huge respect

[@paddletrucker]

One more reason that I've done my best to eliminate all treble hooks from the kayak. Does that mean I'll never get hooked? Nope, but it reduces the odds. Do I miss some fish because I'm only using single hooks? Probably, but I still have a blast. Great video and a worthwhile technique to know!!

[@leenicholson5352]

This happened to me while pike fishing, I had a large treble hook embedded in my thumb plus it was still attached to a large pike which wouldn't stay still, it was a painful experience I won't forget, my friend managed to get hook off the lure so we could unhook the pike, I took the hook out by turning it and popping the barb back out my skin in a different place then cut off the barb... Ouch

[@lrroberts0122]

Hi. My friend and I went fishing the other day. We had a lot of problems with the fish swallowing the hooks, or in the case where the hook was imbedded in the gill. We were having trouble getting the hook out. We're just beginners, but I've been trying to find a good video of how you are "supposed" to pull the hook out. Could you give us any advice or post a video showing how to do it?

[@insansombolinggi2757]

BRILLIANT!

[@ChadHooverFishing]

Thanks

[@alex-ie6eu]

not sure why recommended. Glad it was

[@jasonc3522]

Just had to visit the er two weeks ago to get a shot of lydacaine and show the doctor how to rotate a hook the rest of the way out of my finger. The only assistance I could get from my wife or my mom who was visiting was to drive me to the hospital so long as they didn't have to look at my finger.

[@ChadHooverFishing]

I’m going to do a video on how to remove the hook yourself pretty much from anywhere below the neck.

[@jasonc3522]

@@ChadHooverFishing mine was a single hook, I just couldn't force it through the callus without assistance. But I would have been lost in removing a treble hook. The last at the er deal told me they once had a guy with a treble hook in each hand from the same lure, so I understood exactly why your friend in this video removed the lure first thing. Thanks for the extremely helpful video on this subject.
