Yeah, we've got pets also and that stuff sucks. Sorry about you're dog. I know I remember when we were up on the lewis a few years back fishing silver and there were these three goofs in this driftboat. One guy up front was fishing a spinner on a older reel that was short on line, you could tell because every cast he made you'd have thought he was trying out for the olympics casting contest only with a result of about 30 feet. While winding up on one of his casts he caught the oarsman on the back side of the head, lifted him right off of seat. Then proceed to jerk upwards until you heard the most awful squeal I've ever heard. Sounded like a mountain lion in heat, screaming to get him to stop jerking. Then they didn't have any pliers abord so I motored over and gave them a pair and the guy had them turn the hook the rest of the way through and pull it out, man it looked painful. Barbless would have been a lot easier.
