Product Description

If you bring up one of these fish from water over much over 65 feet deep, odds are good it will suffer “barotrauma” which is basically the bends in fish, plus added complications as their swim bladder can push the stomach out of their mouth from the rapid pressure change as they’re brought to the surface. Some fish experience the problem in water as shallow as 35 feet, and nearly all of them do if brought up from 90 feet or more, fisheries biologists tell us.
