some fish do better when dropped head first into the water, from 2-4ft, and it what a lot of offshore fishermen do. Done alot with the tunas. I personally dont think its that bad if this is what he did but didnt see the show.

Big part of getting fish back into the water with high survival chance is getting them back in quick. Ive nudged a few in with my feet but never kicked them, this only if they are not lively enough to not need resuscitation. I dunno.

The whole canyon thing he did was quite controversial, no one goes out there alone. Anyone could. Its just a matter of safety. One of the best tuna fishermen in the world died last year while fishing alone off new jersey while landing medium sized tuna. They found his body connected to the fish days after he was supposed to return home. It shows it can happen to anyone.
