Seriously-Sorry I couldn't resist I would try cutting an inch or so and see if that helps-Not sure maybe you should try asking a beautician? Good Luck!

bigfaqs.com В» How to take a fishing hook off of the rod?

To remove the hook from your line, just bite it or cut it with something. I prefer to use scissors and always have a pair with me when I’m fishing.

Some rods take apart, some don’t. If it’s a 2-piece rod, you can simply see that the two rod pieces are stuck inside one another, so you just pull until the two pieces come apart. If there’s nothing there then it’s a 1-piece rod, which means you can’t take them apart.

I noticed you didn’t have any misspellings.

I can only assume you’re kidding. Right?

If not, I’d just use the hook that is on it until something breaks then you can ask the question, “how do i tie on a hook?”.

Then we’ll say, go to : http://www.animatedknots.com/indexfishing.php?LogoImage=LogoGrog.jpg&Website=www.animatedknots.com

Perhaps your rod is a one piece rod and DOESN’T come apart. ln which case you’ll be forced to resort to the method subscribed to by “JUSTFISH” who has a broken shift key.

I am a long time fishing woman. I will give you a trick I always use to make it easy to change hooks. First, tie a swivel ball sinker with a metal ‘eye’ to the end of the line. 1/4 ounce sinker is excellent in most situations. Now, come up on the line about 18″ and tie off a long loop about 18″ long. Double knot this loop so that it will not slip when pressure is put on it. Next, pinch off this loop and thread it through the ‘eye’ of the hook. Once this loop is completely through the hook, separate the loop into a circle and feed the hook back through this circle. Tug on the hook and now the loop is snug about the hook. To remove the hook, reverse the process. This method allows your bait to float, keeping it off the bottom, but the sinker will bump along the bottom with the movement of the water. By the way, I recommend a stainless steel long shank hook in most cases because they are easier to remove from the fishes mouth. As for breaking down the rod, no rod worth a cuss will break down.
