As i was standing there cursing the fishing gods for making such a evil fish an old fisherman came up to me and inquired what was wrong , i told him and he told me to catch another one. Too which i replied wtf for the last one got me in this mess ,he told me to get another so i did and he then told me to get it's eyeball whole out of it's head , poke a hole in it and squeeze the clear liquid into the wound from the happy moment , would you believe it was like a switch was thrown the throbbing stop almost immediately, it was a god send , so i try to pass on this knowledge to any fisherpeople i meet while fishing.
