You guys need to lighten up, people do make mistakes, as far as the law goes, was Andy Griffith as hard as you guys, no. But Barney Fife was. I would be worried about the guys that are out there doing it time and time again. The Bass is not an endangered fish, There are plenty of them, I tournament and I release every bass but if some want to keep them thats ok to. I but there are things you all do that bother other people, I am sure we all do. I think it is sad that this is a topic on this board. Hope you guys don't go biblical and start pitching stones at people, remember those without sin cast the first stone.
