While fishing this red was caught and released without deflating its swim bladder.... 15 throws later we were able to foul hook the red and deflate and was safely released, last year, new to this site

      or the fish would not be able to swim bag down and survive @pgondella

      when a fish is pulled in from deep water to the surface the air expands in thier swim bladder and can't release it on their own. .so you have to puncture a small ...more hole to release all the built up air

      What do you mean by deflating the swim bladder do you have to do that with big red?
