I'd like to stress I don't condemn the practice, or live baiting for that matter, all valid ways of catching fish; I'm just as soft as clarts....

So long as it's only a couple of ml. of air it wouldn't cause any real harm especially if it went into tissue (rather than directly into a vein). To be safe always use a small syringe to ensure you can't inject too much, after all you are only trying to make the worm float up, not look like a balloon!Julian wrote:
Its something I would like to try, but I have always shyed away from doing it because there is a serious risk when you use the syringe . If you actually slipped and injected just a tiny bit of air into yourself then that's it - the end - of everything.
