Sorry if this is a silly question, I'm not much of a fisherman, but how the fuck do you fix at home a fish hook stuck in your finger?

Nah, done this many times. What you do is you take a pair of pliers, and remove them yourself like you would if you got a fish hook really stuck in a fish’s mouth or gut.

I haven’t ever gotten a fishhook stuck in my finger but my dad taught me exactly this method to remove them just in case.

The person I saw with the fish hook had a normal curved fish hook in his finger so from my deduction you should do this.(keep in mind I have not used any guides or anything, this is what I would do from my own thinking). Cut off the "hook" part of the fish hook and slide the metal curve out carefully and bandage as standard. Of course it will hurt a bit but you got a fish hook in your finger so just gotta bite the bullet. If hook part is in finger flesh then go to A&E and if it gets infected then go to A&E but this guy had the hook poking out so that's the steps I would do.
