Don't Get Hooked!

A sign of summer in Alaska. All fishermen hope to hook a big one, but often their catch is bigger than expected...the person fishing next to them! And salmon hooks are not small. Certain fishing areas are so popular that it is termed "combat fishing".

The local hospital usually displays a life size foam body with the removed hooks stuck in the matching body parts. If they have this display again, I will blip it later in the summer at the end of fishing season.
