Fishingfiend,
When you try this, be sure you tie that as a test fly without an actual hook hanging down there. I say this for two reasons:
1: Unless your wife is much less entertaining than mine, she'll try getting that hook into you, preferably your ear. (Mumbling something about how a fish feels or something. . . )
2: Although it is apparently acceptable for a teen girl to have a large amount of feathers hanging from their earlobes, they tend to point and laugh at old bald guys doing the same. (Although some may ask if they can 'have' that thing when the doctor is done extracting it.)
