Catch and Release

[brotherinarms]

What does everyone think about catch and release fishing (bass). How big does it have to be to be kept and which ones do you throw back. Already this year i have released a 4 pound smallie. I am guilty of keeping big bass from flordia i have 2 mounted both weighing 10 plus lbs

[YeGymnasium]

[BurntTires]

I release all Fish...........Same here, I throw them back.

[Mrs.BurntTires]

Same here, I throw them back. Mostly because his aren't legal to keep...LOL now mine are a different story but we throw them back anyway.

[BlackcatAlum]

Well, unless I catch a monster bass, it's gonna go back in the water to be later cought !

[MCHStennischic]

When....I go fishing i throw them back.

[Matney's Prodigey]

I only keep em if I am going to clean em

[steelman10]

ill usually throw em back but ocasionally i'll keep em if they are good sized

[baseballfan]

if i fish at a lake i keep the ones that r legal to keep and take them back to clean them. If i fish at a river i throw all them back

[BHStiger]

Tonight I was fishing in a private pond. We caught some bluegill and used them for bass bait. My brother caught a 7 inch bass and I caught a 16 inch bass. We measured them. We did turn them back though.

[cbls_75]

I turn all my fish back

[Mr.Baseball2]

Yea i turn almost all my fish back
