I defer to Kenny on that [Snipe] - he's moved a ton of fish, and if it works for him historically, I'd bank his advice. If the salt bath works to address this infection it's certainly a much quicker process than medicated feed approach.
Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after. ~ Henry David Thoreau

It won't hurt at all.. It will only help with any parasite or fungus. Anytime you handle fish in number, this is good practice. FYI, although a different species we do this to EVERY Walleye we strip or milk in mid 40's because we purposely remove (Dry) the slime/water from each fish which exposes areas extremely prone to infection/fungus, which is what happens every time you handle a fish. Careful handling is always good practice, this is more insurance and addresses other issues such as we've mentioned above that are already present.
