depending on the degree of injury.
If a gut hooked fish is reeled in and you cut the line right away and release it, the hook will desolve and the fish has a very good chance of living.
However I'm sure if one was to tug, jerk and cram pliers down there trying to save a 5 cent hook and give up and release it, it may swim away, but chances are not far before it floats belly up.
