unfortunately some shorts do get gut hooked(hopefully only 1 a year or less) but to put in my 2 cents I would take it feel guilty as heck and call it a night.
I have had great nights spoiled this way and was styopped once by a con. officer who luckily knew me and my good rep. and agreed that it was the right thing to do. I usually only take one fish a year anyway so if it is a short then that is it.
Tight lines all.
