Those of you who don't want to change and save the bass fine, when you catch nothing in a few years you can ask yourself why and look in the mirror.
Conservation starts at home,some of you are hell bent on watching the stocks crash because you don't want people to"tell you" how to fish. You have every right to do that and will pay the price in the long run.The price is no fish, if that is what you want ok.if you don't then you will have to change your position. If you eat doughnuts all day and the doctor tells you you are going to get diabetes but you refuse to listen because you have the" right to eat them" fine,but don't blame the doctor when you have to inject insulin everyday to stay alive.
Like I said,every decision has a consequence.
