midnighthrasher Posted August 2, 2011 Posted August 2, 2011 I dont know how many of you use Rejuvenade in your livewells during tournaments but I strongly suggest it. I had been using it before but recently just forgot about it. This year it has accounted for never losing a fish in several tournaments. Last weekend in particular I caught a nice 4lb smallmouth with a hollow belly swimbait. It was deep hooked and bleeding like crazy. I put her in my livewell and it really wasnnt looking good. After 5 minutes she was sideways so i put some rejuvenade in the water and closed the lid. Check back 10 min later and she is back to life as if nothing had ever happened. This was at 8am. I released her at 3:30pm and she swam away no problems at all. I know that there are some haters of this product on BR but from my personal experiences over the pas 2 years this stuff is amazing. For the record I am in no way affiliated with this product. I dont care if you buy it or not but if you are like me and care about releasing your fish alive and well after a tournament then check it out. Quote
quanjig Posted August 2, 2011 Posted August 2, 2011 I've had mixed results with rejuvenade. For consistency, I still believe in catch n release. Just seems to work better for me in all weather and temperature conditions. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted August 2, 2011 Super User Posted August 2, 2011 All it seems good for is keeping dying fish alive long enough for the weigh in. Kind of makes OK fish spazz out. The Sure Life products are much better. Quote
midnighthrasher Posted August 2, 2011 Author Posted August 2, 2011 All it seems good for is keeping dying fish alive long enough for the weigh in. Kind of makes OK fish spazz out. The Sure Life products are much better. Quite possibly J Franco. All I want this product to do is get the fish to the weight in and allow me to safely release them afterwards. I do not know about the effects that this has on a fish after it has been released. I see other anglers weight in with dead fish in every tournament that i do and those of us who use Rejuvenade have never lost a fish. I would love to see a study done that shows the effects that these type of products have on fish after they have been released. Quote
joshholmes Posted August 3, 2011 Posted August 3, 2011 you should send a letter to the dec asking them to do a study on the post affects of these "fish savers" Quote
Super User J Francho Posted August 3, 2011 Super User Posted August 3, 2011 Well, let me put it to you this way....Texas Share A Lunker uses sure life products. That should tell you all you need to know about the "after effects" of that product. Quote
