Outdoor injuries

hope ya'll have your tetanus shots

I've been hooked once, and it sucked.

I've been pretty lucky and only had minor injuries.

Earlier this year I did let my trolling motor down on my big toe. That hurt pretty bad.

My buddy ran smack arse into a cypress tree doing mach 3 down the Franklin hunting club boat ditch one 20 degree morning. I got ejected and landed head first like a lawn dart into the bank. Resulting injuries were 2 broke toes, a busted nose, multiple scrapes/contustions and a pretty good case of hypothermia.

Probably some more i can't think of for now

We were moving some big fish from one floor chest to another a month or two ago. It was really smooth, but I wasn't. I picked up about a 40 pound cobia and went to step over the box, but someone slipped. I tend to not wear shoes out there (bad idea), so I ended up fracturing a toe and damn near peeling the nail off of it. It was not fun. Hobbling around on the boat for the rest of the trip was awkward, as well. Honestly, the worst part was worrying about flesh eating bacterias, so I ended up wrapping the toe up like a mummy.

It wasn't me, but a good friend's dad was nailed in an artery by a hardhead one time. It was frightening. His leg was squirting blood all over the boat.
