And I was trying to cast into the wind, and I\u2019m not a super-experienced fly fisherman and so when I casted back and went forward, the wind took it and just whipped it right into the back of my leg. And I started limping over to my wife and I was like, \u2018So what do I need to do?\u2019 She\u2019s like, \u2018You\u2019re gonna have to push it through the other side,&#8217; but thank you for Miller Lite because I think it would have been a lot more painful without it. I honestly think it\u2019s payback cause my grandfather was the one that taught me how to fish \u2013 and there was one time when I was about nine years old that I slung my rod back and I hooked him right in the neck with a treble hook. I watched a doctor pull it out, and so when I hooked myself right in the back of the leg, I looked at the sky and said, \u2018God, I deserve every bit of this.\u2019\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Thomas and Lauren co-hosted ABC&#8217;s CMA Country Christmas earlier this week where he performed a song called &#8220;Christmas In The Country.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Thomas Rhett says he got a taste of karma earlier this year when he accidentally caught himself while fly fishing on a family trip to Colorado.","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":11257,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"featured_img_display":"Yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[2538,612,115],"class_list":["post-11662","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-country-music-news","tag-fly-fishing","tag-lauren-akins","tag-thomas-rhett"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-14 06:33:46","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"react_link":"https:\/\/country959.com\/blogs\/country-music-news\/2020\/12\/thomas-rhett-details-fly-fishing-accident\/","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11662","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11662"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11662\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11663,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11662\/revisions\/11663"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11257"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11662"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11662"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11662"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
