don't know how often or how many fish some of you catch,but i know what i catch and kill accidently is a lot more than a few fish a year. i fish mainly wooden plugs,crush the barbs and never use a treble in the back.every season i have a good number of fish inhale my plugs to the point of no return. i also fool hook a good number of fish in the gills,often the rear hook will rip a good chunk out of the side.i know bass are pretty hardie,by the scarred ones i have caught,but if i really thougth the bass were in trouble i wouldn't fish for them peroid.so i guess i am not in
