ty (or anybody else that wants to chime in)
i have worked 20-30 minutes on a fish nursing it back, never an hour. i hold and support it upright and make slight side to side movements while holding the base of its tail, into the wind. i cut hooks-leave the fish in the bag until the camera/bumpboard is ready and never try to keep a fish out of the water (especially on warmer days) for more than 1-2 minutes for pictures and measuring..
do you have any tricks some of us should know when nursing it back to health? an hour+ seems unreal, and when do you (if ever) give up? i've heard of people trying to get a fish to "belch"-maybe to remove air-but am not sure what they are really talking about.
thanks for the input
