Title: How long can a fish stay alive out of water?
Post by: Pete on August 10, 2007, 21:22:58 PM
I thought it was only a few minutes, just been fishing, got 26 fish but only bought four home. One was a flatty and we caught him like an hour and a half ago n my mum noticed he was still alive n kicking when I got home so shes dashed off to put him back like awww, I cant kill him he deserves to go back to the sea

bless

Anyway, how is that even possible?

That was the only thing I could think of too. Since they cant obtain any oxygen from the air at all I cant see them  surviving more than 10 mins max.

Orrrr ... you found an invincible fish!

you should have droped it in the sink, filled it up with water and added a bit of salt.... ;)

then if it did youd have to kill it and eat it..... LIKE A MAN !!!!!

Yeah so err, she probably threw it back in and it sunk. Poor thing.. If I was that fish Id rather be part of a slap-up meal than left to rot/be nibbled by sea creatures.
