Bryan Jarrett was nice enough to put together a nice summary of this paper which talked about the 5 commonly described methods of fish hook removal from skin. That summary can be found here:
Please join us for our next Wilderness Medicine meeting that is going to take place this Tuesday, December 2nd at 7:45pm at Berg’n. It is located at 899 Bergen street here in Brooklyn. I look forward to seeing all of you there.
