If you fish for Crappie in 40+ feet of water you best just plan on putting them in the bucket. I don't think promoting "field surgery" on fish is the answer. Fizzing has mixed opinions even from biologists. Fizzing ain't going to help those eyeballs either....reel em up, throw em in the bucket and go get another, you aren't going to dent the population....the place is literally carpeted with them. The size is good on all of them this year so it shouldn't even be an issue. If you want to catch and release i would recommend you pick another species/body of water. Pineview needs more "killing and grilling" and maybe the size will get even better.
