I had one about 28# the other night and it took a good 10 minutes moving here back and forth before she could swim on her own. I hate to think of one going belly up after reviving but I'm sure it happens.

Congrats on the fish. Beasts!
Couple weeks ago I revived a good fish. Swam off after a little while of the back and forth resesitation. Motored back for another drift and 2 min later there she was belly up. It sucks but it happens, good thing i was in the boat so I could grab her for the cooler. I bet especially at night you dont even know it but shes washing up on the rocks 40 yrds down from you.
