Something to think about.

I’ve read before where suction feeding fish don’t do very well when released after being hung on bogas. Something to do with cartilage separating in the lower jaw from heavy fish being suspended out of water. Seems they lose the ability to inhale prey and just eventually starve.
A study on barramundi in Australia that had fish suspended then returned to large pens had 50 out of 50 fish eventually die.
Couldn’t post the study from this ipad. Will try and put it up next time I’m in front of a real computer.
Just a curious read.
