Re off the rocks, if they're small enough you can try hanging them from a grip lead through the gils and lowering down. Shouldn't bother with conger, you just know what's going to happen.

Re swimbladders, I seen one guy on the boats expound his theory they only need a little pressure to equalise it. He then hurled the small fish downward, like a dart, into the oggin. We both saw it at four feet deep, it swam away. Others just floated on the surface where we dropped them.

Re mobile phones, the cheat for Slippy the Snake is accessed by pressing menu / 4 / 8 / 1 / 8. MK

I have read somewhere that if you pierce the swim bladder with a fine needle, it deflates, allows the fish to get back to its level and the bladder heals quickly enough to enable it to recover. if you think about it, it is not like a balloon, in that it has an entry and exit, which enables the fish to regulate the amount of oxygen in the bladder, when it is hauled up the muscles controlling the sphincters go into spasm and lock the bladder. This I read somewhere and I do not claim to be 100%. The other thing to remember is that Pout, Whiting, Cod and related species have very delicate skin and being touched with dry anglers' hands often results in such serious injuries, means a long a and slow death by disease.
