Not a photo of mine but worth the post none the less, im not sure if there has been a topic in the past with fishing related injuries but im sure there would be a few photos getting around of hooks being where they shouldnt be.  :)

I trust he will remember to remove his barbs in future!
If it swims; I want to catch it!

This one happened to me about six years ago.To cut a long story short i took a sicky off work as it was such a nice day & went fishing & ended up with the barb off an eagle ray through my foot.A trip on the Westpac Rescue helicopter,a week in hospital,two operations on the offending foot & four months off work on ACC. was the result.Needless to say I have"nt taken any mor sick days off unless really sick since.Boy did I have explaining to do over this one when I finally got back to work!
