Since I am new to the forum I need to say that I make my own lures and sell them. I am up late at night most of the time making lures.
I am not writing this to sell lures. I just wanted to share a boneheaded move on my part that you guys and gals may find funny. Feel Free to laugh along with me.
About 9pm tonight I was somewhat bored so I went into my lure room and got some stuff out to take to the living room to sit in front of the tv and make some double spinners. I had an order to fill and I had made a rack earlier in the day to put them on.
I had completed about 60 and decided to get the display rack out and put them on to see how they looked. I am colorblind so they always get mixed up and I was trying real hard to get it right. After about 45 minutes of this I decided that they were as good as I was going to be able to get them.
Now, I am sure we have all had a hook in our fingers, hands, arms and probably every where else. I had gone and taken my shower to get ready for bed and remembered that my daughter was not back from her date and I had left the rack sitting on the floor in the living room. I didnt want her to accidentally trip and fall on the lures, I use all Mustad Ultra Point hooks, and get a hook caught.
I go into the LR and head to turn on the light and then it happened---I stepped on a piece of cut wire that I failed to pick up and then fell in to the rack of lures! Can you say shiate!!!!!
I managed to get 14 lures total stuck in my left lower leg and 4 of them past the barb. Wooo Hooo!! This is FUN FUN FUN!!!
After 10 solid minutes of cursing and a very large pile of dammits I got all but the "sunk" ones out.
So needless to say the lures are now DRILLED to the *&^%^&^%^ wall!!!
