Slot limit , Ban Comms from taking bass, only allow 1 fish per day etc etc etc. Every one has a idea to help "protect the bass". Some or all may help but most people seem to miss the one thing that will do the most for the entire system. Proper enforcement of the law! As the saying goes a fence only keeps out an honest man. You can see it in every aspect of life. States with open carry laws on the books have less crime, why? not because people obey the laws regarding crime but because they are afraid of being shot when they try to mug someone. Same with speeding we all do it. Why? Because we can get away with it but we all know where it is enforced and won't do it on those roads. I don't care if they allowed you to take 5 fish per day if people have no fear of getting caught they WILL keep 10 of any size they want to. My personal feeling is we should not worry so much about size limits ( not what it is no important ) and spend so much of our time trying to get a slot Etc Ect and more of our energy in getting our political leaders to keep there blood stained hands off the tax $$$ from the fisheries and put more of that money into the DEM so they can be properly staffed and equipped to do there job. If more people get caught and fined fewer people will take shorts or more that there fare share.
