Anyone here have any hands on experience with fizzing deep water fish? After many years cold water fishing I finally caught a Jersey walleye that wouldn't go back down. It made for tasty tacos.

I mainly target bass so this is bass related followed by an eye related one for you.
Happy Thanksgiving!

a deep water release device is also an option

these are required for some fish in alaska, so there are several types on the market or one can be made up DIY

Thanks! Just did a google search and never knew there were so many options for these things. I got an idea to make one using the lure retriever I have. I was on a charter boat once and they had a weighted milk crate on a line they would send fish back down with. A little cumbersome for my boat.
