Catfish got me in the Achilles Tendon....

[twistitup]

Just a warning, put your catfish somewhere - anywhere away from your feet - don't even let them flop around down there for a second or you will end up like ol twist

I got stuck in my Achilles Tendon by a big channel cat this morning, I'm going to start drinking now, pain.....

 Take precautions against infection before you get too lit up. Those things can be nasty.

[JIMMY BOARFFETT]

Ouch!

Rookie mistake!  Haha just kidding.  Get that thing cleaned up and put some antibacterial on it.

Twistup,  take care.  Had a friend that got severely infected like that by a catfish years ago. He ended up in the hospital for a few days, because he didn't take it seriously.

[PonderinHog]

Rub some dirt on it!

[twistitup]

I was told that if I rub slime from the catfish on the hole it would heal quicker....I'm skeptical

That's probably one of the worst things you could do.

[JIMMY BOARFFETT]

Cut an "X" across the hole with your boy scout knife and suck the poison out.  I read that somewhere.

Apple Cider Vinegar

or

Monkey's Blood

or

Witch Hazel

or

Epsom Salt

4 sure fire cures to anything.

[HawgWild]

Plunge an arrow into the wound. Hollow it out and fill with gunpowder. Light and quickly pull through your heel. I saw Clint Eastwood do this once and everything was fine afterwards. I think it sterilized the wound. I'm just saying.......

You funky idiots, the obvious solution is to have Rev. summon up the spirits and have a hands on healin' service while we all dance with snakes.

I gotta teach y'all everything.

Well, I tried this and after drinkin' it, I feel worse.

My bad, I forgot an ingredient.

Try it with some Echinacea.

What are you tryin' to do, kill me

[jrulz83]

Okay, add in some Redcurrants and Black Elderberry you should be good to go.

[Rzbakfromwaybak]

Get a pint of good quality whiskey, & a quart of cheap whiskey.

Quickly drink down all the good whiskey.  Wait 15 minutes, then soak your foot in a pan with the cheap whiskey for 3 hours, or until you get sober.  You should be sterilized inside & out....

Naw, I read somewhere....that's only for snake bites.....not catfish.  Catfish wounds require you to cut a "Z" across it.  If it doesn't seem to bleed well, cut a couple more....

This worked, Thanks waybak

[Rzbakfromwaybak]

Ok, glad that worked.  Thought you might try the whisky treatment that I mentioned first.  It certainly appears less painful....

[Großer Kriegschwein]

I got got once in the flesh between my thumb and index finger. About a 2 lb catfish, just me and my GSP. Holy Shite that hurt. ended up using and cotter key cutters to cut the horn off, used my pocket knife to dig it out. Keep a bar of soap and rubbing alcohol in the boat, didn't get infected. But I had to cut a chunk of meat off to get it out.

That has to be the worst place (achilles) to get horned (aside from the obvious, but if you get got there, you might wanna talk to a shink).

It starting to feel better Golf, but still tender when I wear certain shoes that hit that exact spot on my ankle.

Twist, Glad to hear you are doing better.  Next time you go after catfish, wear boots & gloves....

Bless your heart Brother.

It's healed up and I'm back 100% - no more catfish in the back of the boat.

A could write a song about it...
