A video like that that showed the actual process would be great. Unfortunately with the way he had to work on that fish, not much could be seen but it is a perfect example of how much air can gather in the bladder. That was a lot of bubbles…

you are right Sir.

I’m comfortable with bleeding the bladder of a fish on the spot and releasing it on the spot. Still, if you are not sure of what to do the best thing is to take up Cameron’s offer.

Keep them fish alive!

I’ve filmed Cameron bleeding a Shareluker here.

Bleeding a bladder is something we all should know how to do. I believe more education on the proper technique to deflate the bladder is needed.

As a response to Charlie and Richard, you guys need to remember, No matter if the fish is measured, weighed, picture taken and then released, A fish with with a distended bladder will not make it back to the depths that it came from. It will have to fight the full bladder and more than likely end up being a lost fish.

Thanks for all that you do Cameron.
