Just to add more salt to the wound if she wasn't smug already

Just to add more salt to the wound when I took the hooks out of her dhuies mouth I couldn’t believe my eyes .I last fished the spot 3 weeks ago and lost a nice fish and had laid bets on it being a dhuy and sure enough there were my hooks still lodged in the back of its throat you can see them on the right side
