Lobina: Swim bladder & pressure
① Closed swim bladder · ② Rete mirabile slow gas exchange · ③ No esophageal duct · ④ Free multi-depth cruising and suspension. A closed bladder does not pin largemouth to a single contour, but rapid capture from >10 m (33 ft) causes gas bloat requiring a descending device.
B Multi-Layer Mobility vs >10 m (33 ft) Deep-Haul Barotrauma Care — A closed bladder does not pin largemouth to a single contour, but rapid capture from >10 m (33 ft) causes gas bloat requiring a descending device. Use observed fish and prey depth alongside temperature and oxygen rather than assuming closed-bladder bass are pinned to one contour, and have a descending device ready before targeting offshore schools.

Largemouth bass are physoclistous (closed swim bladder) fish — their swim bladder has no duct to the gut, so gas volume must be adjusted slowly across blood capillaries (the gas gland and oval window). Hydrostatic pressure changes affect buoyancy, and hauling a fish rapidly from deep water can cause barotrauma. Yet this anatomy does not lock largemouth to a single contour line or prove that yesterday's school will remain at the exact same depth tomorrow. Free-swimming largemouth routinely adjust depth, rise several metres off bottom structure to intercept bait, and transition between shallow cover and offshore ledges.
In practice, deep-capture barotrauma risk depends on actual capture depth and water conditions, not a stereotype that largemouth are always shallow and smallmouth are always deep. Largemouth caught off 6–12 m (20–40 ft) summer channel ledges, deep brush, or autumn bluff walls require the exact same decompression care as deep-water smallmouth or walleye, while shallow capture in hot water still demands fast, gentle handling to ensure survival.
