....ok, back on topic....I saw the OTW show this weekend too....and yeah, I have to agree...at least one of them fish didn't look like it would make a healthy return......but it's not like they dilly dally'd with it. Diving it in is the best way to release them, after that....it's in King Neptune's hands ... hopefully some of those fish dont' make it so us soon to be migrating blue crabs can have some sushi.
Best thing is to get them back in ASAP so the saltwater can help with the recovery. With the hook no longer pulling on the wound, who knows......better chance of closing up I'm sure. ??? ..but I ain't no fishiatrician......
