How to remove a fish hook from your skin

BDN Outdoors Editor John Holyoke is on Beech Hill Pond to demonstrate how to remove a fish hook that's stuck in your skin. Remember, go to a doctor whenever possible, but if it's not embedded deep or you're fishing somewhere so remote that there's no doctor around, these tips can help.

This works and it works well. I used to do Bass Tournaments and have been snagged many times. My partner was a woman and she was squeamish about this afraid she was going to hurt me. I showed her what to do and in a second she pulled it right out. Although I forgot to move my other arm and snagged that next. She performed the same thing and got it out again. I was happy and she was proud and glad it was so simple. When it is pulled there really is no pain and works like a charm. Draw a note and put it in your fishing stuff somewhere you won't lose and so you will know what to if you forget. It saves a lot of fishing time and if you can put some salve on it.

I can't believe this happens so often. I hooked my 9yr old grandson in the nose w a treble hook abt 2 hrs ago (I thought it got his eye!). A friend cut the other 2 hooks off but was afraid to mess with the embedded one & I was too. The ER doctor used this trick... U can't even tell the hook was there. Thank you for taking time & posting this video... Wish I'd seen it sooner but it's great to know, just in case it happens to someone else. I won't let anyone be within 50 yards of me ever again... Lol
