How To Remove a Deep Fishhook
Tips and Tricks for Removing a Deep Fishhook

If other methods are unsuccessful, it may be necessary to make an elliptical incision around the hook entrance. Before removing a fishhook embedded in subungual tissue, use a digital block. Some cases require removing the nail or part of it to expose the hook.
