They have to get the video off somehow... also it's not like that would be the best place to mount a camera that would stay with the fish. That's my opinion anyway.

It looks like there is still a hook in the fish's mouth. they are probably letting it swim away on free spool until they get a good video of how the tag holds up and tracks. Then they re-catch the fish and remove the camera.
