When things go terribly wrong

So, last night was terrible.   What would have been a fun, casual night of fishing with my pals turned into a nightmare and a 3 hour stay at the ER.   Me and my buds Chory and Daniel were fishing and having a good ol’ time catching fish and sharing some laughs.  An hour or so in, Chory hooks up to a full grown one. . . A full grown man that is.  He caught Daniels face with his mirrolure when tossing out a cast.  The lure is hanging from his face with blood everywhere and it appeared to be in his eye!!!  Not good at all.   Luckily, after getting a better look at it, the hooks came within millimeters of his eyeball and one of them actually pierced his eye lid.   Phew, what a relief. . . There was a moment where I really thought that it caught his eyeball and that was the worst feeling ever.  We got him to the ER and he will be making a full recovery.   Although it was a freak accident from a result of terrible timing it served as a reminder of how fast things can go south, and how to always pay attention.  Like my Mom always said “Look both ways before tossing a MirroLure.”    Something along those lines.  Here is a LINK to the photo of the accident (WARNING GRAPHIC!)
