Ever had to pull a hook out of your mouth??

Went and fished the ogden river on monday with a guy I work with. It was a turning out to be a pretty good day as we both caught a brown each within the first half hour. Then we spotted a hole with a bunch of nice fish browns swimming so we both started to cast and try and get them to take our flies. Then all of a sudden I felt his line hit me in the face and him try and pull it away while apologizing. Right then I felt a stinging in my lip and blood begin to drip down my face! He had hooked me perfectly in my lip! Also with that little tug he set the barb deep in my lower lip. I first tried to pull it out but it wouldn't' budge. I then went up to my truck and began...SURGERY![crazy] I had to push the hook in farther until I punched a new hole in my lip until the barb came out. I put my buddy to use by dumping water on my lip to wash the blood away so I could see. The I clipped the eye of the hook and unthreaded the fly and pulled it out! Lesson learned..Don't fish that close to someone or don't wish with that guy again!!!![] Check out the pic below..I only got one when it first happened
