[QUOTE="TRIGGER, post: 5135145, member: 10452"] I am quite familiar with the air bladder issues. I have been using the weights instead of fizzing them since last summer with great success. I have fizzed them from the side and from the mouth enough to have learned that it’s hard to get the correct amount of air out of them every time. You run the risk of A: not letting enough out then having to poke them again or B: letting too much out and they sink to the bottom. I’m not exactly sure what happens to them after releasing them after you have let too much out. All in all it can’t be good on there health to stick a needle in em so I’m going to use the weights as long as they work which has been 100% until this fish making me think something else. I have had smallmouth die for no apparent reason that I have thought stress was the culprit but haven’t had a problem with largemouth. [/QUOTE]
