I keep my keepers. I like fresh seafood properly cared for and correctly butchered. Most seafood stores make me want to barf when I open the door. I clam , too. I started fishing and clamming at a very young age and I guess it's a tradition for me and my family to do "freezer fillers". Nothing goes to waste and we usually run short at the end of the Winter.
Having said that, there is honor in C&R. But also risk for the fish as Numbskull has stated. As long as you realize that, then it's ok. Show your prey respect.....
I can't abide abuse of any game in any way, it reeks of blasting chickadees.
