Blue Liquid down the hatch!

I was watching some crappie tourney on the Pursuit TV channel and watched a guy dump some blue liquid down a crappie's throat
after it was caught. What was that? Was it some sort of anti-bacterial keep alive solution applied before it goes into the live well
or back over board?

Regards Chris

I am guessing it’s probably Methylene Blue. Usually added to tank water etc, I have never heard of it being poured in.

Ya - and it's main purpose is to treat fungal infestations...it's not a 'reviver'.

Maybe he heard it somewhere - like the guys who still pour soda over a fishes gills despite evidence that it's harmful.

Sounds rough

might have been blue mountain dew , hear tell it will stop a bleeder
have no clue but hear bass tourney guys use it ...? :dono

No, the shape of the container wasn't cylindrical.

It was G Juice! I had recorded the show and when I watched it, I was checking on the here to see if there was any new topics for me to learn more about. I saw this and rewound it to get a good look again.

FYI, the father, Terry Mann is from my hometown growing up.

OK, thanks, that product makes sense if the fish need to be alive for weigh in. But why would someone pour it down the fishes mouth?

• "Promotes healing of torn scales and hook punctures" C'mon man! REALLY!

a cigarette lighter and just cauterize that wound until we can get to the nearest hospital emergency room , whoops its a fish , I meant to the vet ,,,,,,:Rofl

G Juice will help stop bleeding in a deep-hooked crappie. My tourney partner and I buy it in 1/2 gallon containers. Lots of times when pulling cranks, the hooks will be tangled up in the gills or back of the tongue. We cut the hook off at the eyelet and the bends of the hook to try to remove.
We’ve weighed in lots of crappie that would have been dead if not for the G Juice stopping bleeding.
