Nothing like getting the front trouble buried in your hand while the back treble is still in the fish and he's flopping around everywhere. I think if I'd have had a gun I would have shot that fish to get him to stop flopping around!

Dang that's gonna be sore!
Surprisingly, it wasn't. Once the hook was out it didn't really hurt at all.
The last one I had was directly in the pad of my finger. It must have been on a nerve or something, because it was shooting pain up my arm to my elbow. I thought I was going to black out it hurt so bad. This one was nothing like that.. at least not after I got the darn fish off the hook!
I've grown to hate treble hooks!

Ouch! 
One reason I use treble hooks as little as possible, and make all my hooks barbless.

I know exactly how that feels! I had a rapala minnow plug on wading in the river and had a nice 16inch trout slip thru my hand and top treble caught the webbing in between my thumb and index finger and was flopping all over the place. I thought I was going to pass out. Will never ever forget what that felt like and not having any control at the moment.Nothing like getting the front trouble buried in your hand while the back treble is still in the fish and he's flopping around everywhere.
