Generally, I keep fish that are barely legal, 28" to 30", legal by State standards, but not legal by OTW rules. I would never embarass myself by weighing in a 14 lb bass anyway.
I personally don't eat large bass, as I think smaller bass taste better, BUT, I have enough people asking me for Striper steaks, that If I thought a fish had a chance to add points, it would not go uneaten.
