Release or keep large fish ?

I may have allready had this question answered (by Fisherwoman, I think ? ) over the vhf but,
Yesterday I got a good size bass (32#)
I wanted to bring it in for an official weigh in and also wanted to release it to live another day and grow to be a 40# fish!!!
I put it in my live well to stay alive for a while and asked Van over the vhf if that is leagal to keep in the live well. I can't imaging too many boats that have a live well big enough to keep a 32# fish in , but I do!!!
I think it was Fisherwoman who came over the vhf and said it was NOT legal to keep in live well.
Is this true ? would most even bother ?
Just trying to do my small part in conservation so there will be fish for future fishermen/women! :
