OI OI,

would it be worth carrying small wire cutters for barbed hook's in skin, i do even though i use barbles hooks there still in there from my pike fishing trial's just a thought

 

I agree with merlino bill, plus a diagram and instruments on how to remove an imbedded hook!

 

Something like this article from http://www.aafp.org/afp/20010601/2231.html

Lots of good advice here! The only things I can add are on the detail of the contents.

 

Firstly I'd suggest that you avoid fabric plasters. A lot of people are allergic to them.

 

A lot of people are allergic to latex gloves so use pvc ones instead.

A pair of snips has got to be the first one,followed by pliers and a can of Millers

 

Been there got the t-shirt A size 14 Blue Zulu in the ear,a size 8 Orange dog nobbler in the arm, a Yozuti Aile Magnet embedded in my scalp

 

Minor probs

 

A quick tip - for small hooks anyway. If snips are to hand simply push the hook all the way through and then snip it.
