Proper Salmon Reviving Method - Pier Fishing

[MichaelAngelo]

It's definitely tough from the pier. I remember fishfight posting that he likes to use his net to hold the fish while it revives. But a sideways fish is a sideways fish, regardless of whether its in a net or not.

I don't know if fish revive the same if they are lying sideways vs, being held straight up. Technically, they should be getting the same amount of oxygen either way, as long as their upward gill is submerged.

I've seen sideways fish right themselves and swim away, but not very often.
