On removing hooks and lures from hooked fish...
Most anglers like to be "macho" and forcibly remove the hooks with brute tugging and manipulation. May I urge that you always use a TOWEL or CLOTH to get a firm grip on the fish before you start to work on removing the hook.
This simple precaution will save you a lot of grief. I promise you. A small towel or cloth is a "must" piece of equipment when you expect to catch fish. Imagine what happens when you're holding a struggling fish without a cloth and the fish slips out of your grip... especially if you used a treble hook. All I can say is "Look Out!".
