About a month ago,
right at the beginning of trout season, the local lake was packed. Any angler with any courtesy gives 5ft of space between them and the next angler so lines don't get tangled etc.
After spending all night queuing in the parking lot, my friends and I got "the hot spot" on the tip of what's called Trout Island and went about setting our gear up. Fun times was had by all and we were nailing the fish.

Some twat decides to come along and start throwing out lures in between us all (throw it out, reel in slowly instead of the bait and wait method that most of our team employ).
Naturally, this was pissing us off. A lot. We asked the guy to refrain, and got talkign to him....meanwhile, while we're talking, one of my friends little 9 year old daughter sneaks up behind this chap after noticing his lure is dangling close to his bum. She then proceeds to carefully snag the lure on his trousers.

The guy walks another five feet down to where some other people are fishing, and as he gets ready to cast the lure digs into his ass! He falls on the floor screaming and flailing, we all piss ourselves laughing and meanwhile we offer to take him to the Emergency Room or if he wants us to get the lure out for him.
I've never seen a grown man scream and cry as much as he did when one of the guys (who's a nurse) used the accepted method to remove the hook from his bum!

Lauren, the little girl, got a right telling off from her dad while the rest of us high fived her!

Would the accepted method
be snipping the eye from the hook and pushing it all the way round so the barb doesn't take a huge chunk of flesh out with it?
