I have had a Bear lake cutthroat that I descended that ended up coming back up. If you send one down and they dont recover, it doesn't take long before they are floating again. If anyone has fished bear lake much they know how sensitive those cutts can be. I sent him down twice and he never came up after the second time so I assume he made it. All the lakers I have caught that I had to descend never came back up.
One thing ive noticed is if you bring them up slower they have an easier time when you release them. You almost always see a bunch of bubbles come to the surface right before you see the mac.
Anyone who fishes for Lakers or other big fish in deep water should have a laker saver. I highly recommend them and they do work and are easy to use once you have done it a couple of times.
