If everybody with a fishing license made it a point to bring home a limit everytime they went bass fishing, though it would be perfectly legal, it would most definitely have an impact on the fishing. The state sets those creel and size limits, but they also count on the fact that there are plenty of catch and release anglers out there...believe that.

I'm a throw-em-back kinda guy for bass. I'll never fault a guy for a legal harvest, but I still think it's majorly important for us to promote catch and release fishing to keep things good in the future.
