Ethical question but I know thew answer...
I release 95% of the fish I catch keepers included but I do like a few meals of fresh bass. I don't use circle hooks but catch very few deep enough to hurt them.
If I catch a 24 inch short so deep that the blood is pouring out of his gills and you just know he is a dead fish walking (or swimming ) You drop him back in and he does a fine back stroke but nothing else.
It is illegal to keep him but is it unethical to let him go. In all honesty the only bass I ate last year was two dead shorts and I do know its wrong but I just hate dumping them back in..
Should I turn in my sportsman card??
