If you do catch a bass in deep water it will just lay on its side in the live well until you do something about it. Next time you are out and you see some other guys just ask them to show you because its easier than it looks. If you dont want to risk killing the bass you can try another way Ive seen on tv and that is putting a 1/2oz jig in its mouth and lowering it till it spits the jig and swim off.
