The facts remain that we are are on a downslide and a reduction in size and bag limit per day would not hurt.
Yup---cyclical periods of scarcity have been noticed in the past, when fishing pressure on bass was a fraction of what it is now. Keep in mind that most of the bass clubs folded around the turn of the century (the 19th to 20th, that is) when bass became so scarce that members started dropping out.
