I took a 9/0 hook from a Wahoo Lure with an angry 20lb mahi attached to the other hook. Right into the calf muscle. I know how that felt, can imagine the eye. I have picture of my hook in my leg on my phone don't know how to post them.

Pics are a few years old at least. As many times as I've seen it, it still turns my stomach.
I doubt it hurt much. Only the cornea has nerve endings IIRC.
