Good heavens if they are that hungry I'll buy'em a steak dinner if they quit keeping every doggone bass they catch. I've got to quit looking at other sites and guide services photo pages it's just killing me. I'm sorry and I'm done but I had to vent, I wish they would put a 25 inch size limit on all bass or go to a slot like Dale.
I agree with you that it bothers me to some degree for them to be kept (for eating or for putting on a wall), but I disagree that they taste badly. They taste just like bluegill and crappie because they are in the same fish family.

I'm not advocating keeping them. Heck, I haven't kept a fish - bluegill, crappie, catfish, bass, or whatever in almost 2 years, but just disagreeing about the taste.
