I once had to hold a musky in the water for about 10-15 minutes before it swam away strong. As long as the gills are flapping it has a chance. After a long fight, let it stay in the water in the net for a few minutes before you take it out for a picture. Think about you sprinting a 50 yard dash then sticking your head under water, you'll wish you rested a bit first haha.

Also hold it by the tail and do not move it forward and back. Instead very slightly turn it back and forth just a little. For such beasts they are real wusses when it comes to reviving. You have to stay with it and it can take a long time to get going again.

Awesome moves by your friend I don't know anyone that would do that! Unless it was the biggest fish I've ever seen! Haha
