Fishing with a spey rod it is very easy to end up with hooks in the wrong place. I buried a large hook to the bottom of the bend in my eye. First thing I did was grab it to imobilize it. The 300 gr spey line was dragging in the fast current trying to rip it out. Got out of the water and buddy one turns white when he sees it. Buddy two, a tough guy, screams and says "Fawk you go to a doctor." I go to the truck and look in the rear view mirror. The hook was buried in the eye socket and stuck in the bone. Fawkit, the salmon are just starting to run. I pulled it out slowly and didn't destroy anything. Oh yes, I caught three salmon after that.
