Must see bass fishing video
Posted by Rich Lindgren at 6/11/2008 9:49 AM and is filed under Tips and Techniques,Multimedia,Bass Basics 
Kind of a bonus blog entry today, I usually do not do more then one entry per day, but this was too good. Things you will learn/see in this video:
Instructional info on catching schooling bass
Early glance at Prototype Lipless crankbait from Ima Lure
Bill Smith hooking Michael Murphy in face with said Lipless crank
The entire removal process
It is a little graphic, but very educational. Not sure if I am more impressed with Murphy on his calmness and toughness during hook removal process or how he finished his cast with the jerkbait even with hook in face. Bill Smith had to feel a little dumb hooking his Ima ProStaff teammate on camera.
This actually happend to my in my very first club bass tourney at age 14, fishing with my uncle, I took a Zara Spook right under my chin about 10 minutes into the day. Pretty much the same drill, push hook through, cut the barb off and back it out. Slap a band-aid on it and finished the tourney, only weighed two fish though.

OUCH!! that hurts just to watch. He is far calmer that I'd be. I've been hooked one time in the back. The guy who hooked me was to much of a wimp tp push the hook thru and cut it. So I fished for a hour with it im my back and then carry a jon boat about 300 yards to load it in the back of the truck. After a Dr. cut it out all the guy who hooked me wanted to know is did I get his rapala back - I still fish that Rapala from time to time!!!!

Ewwwww!!! I maybe a cool person, but with the situation like that of Michael Murphy, I don't think I still can regain my composure. i could have scream to death just feeling the pain right in my face. I never had such a painful experience aside from being pierced by a staple wire. Grrrr!!!
