How'd u get it out
Did you guys get the hook out yourselves? From the photo looks like the point went out the other side.
Stuck myself once when I was a kid and it took hours to get help, so anything bigger than a bream lure gets debarbed.
Sticking yourself is a real trip spoiler!!!

nice trip by the sounds of
nice trip by the sounds of it. gotta be some ouch factor in the hook . the only way i could see it being removed would be push it through , squash the barb and pull it back or cut the bugger off , the hook that is , not the finger.did you keep the ambo?
