The day the bulk of the fishermen here in the northeast realize that the so called "fame" associated with the taking of a large bass and parading it around is severely detrimental to the fishery, will be the day things change for the better. As a community, we celebrate those that slay the big fish and worship them. If a catch of a fish can garner this type of celebrity status, most will take the route of kill and show. If we make it known that the true fisherman look down upon such acts of killing these oversized fish, maybe then we will turn the corner. We need to celebrate those that catch, photograph and release a big girl, and condemn those that kill, parade and fillet them.
