I Agree with Lee, 5 of the fish tagged last summer were caught on my boat, It was around July 1 and the water temp was 86 degrees at daylight and all the fish were dead within 48 hours after release. These were the fish that swam back down own there own. We tried to get two of the fish in the boat, in less than a minute from the time they were hooked, (around 7 pounds) and they still died. Its tough this time of year for the stripe. The fish were tagged in the boat in an aerated stock tank.
