Stranger than fiction.
I have to guess that his line got snagged and, while trying to free it, it came loose and rubberbanded the sinker into his face. A three-ounce bank or pyramid sinker would definitely hurt.
It's similar to a common mishap among tarpon fishermen: if you have the line taut from fighting the fish and it leaps out of the water, you're supposed to "bow" to the fish, releasing tension on the line, so that the bait with its heavy hook isn't snapped into your face.
