What is the recommended thing to do when the bass swallows the hook. I've
heard many different things and really don't know what to do. I want that 3
pounder I caught to live and become a 6 pounder...

I was always from the school of thought that you push the hook in as far as
you can, if possible, as the fish will ultiamtely digest the hook.
Thankfully, I haven't had many deeply hooked fish.
