What size needle Tom ? I never done the fizzing thing but standard Hypo needles are a dime a dozen at the pharmacy.

Chaos is right, buy them over the counter Tom. Fizzing is when you poke a needle into the bladder of a fish to release air so the fish can swim upright. Have to know what your doing, if you don't your doing more harm than good. End result a good percentage of the time either way is dead fish... Lot of tournament guys do this to try and keep their fish alive for weigh in time.
