Good call. I always keep one on the deck, but on this occasion we were fishing in only 40-50 feet of water with our bait drifting into a high spot. 2 of them had tons of energy at the boat and swam away strong as soon as I got the hook removed. The third required a little more care, but after a couple minutes of holding it upright and getting water through the gills, he woke up and bolted away too.
