The angler didn't establish the quota Don. And comm season doesn't close until the quota is met. With this in mind perhaps there should not even be a limit for 30 fish,why not make it as many as you can get until the quota is filled.
I guess my point is that the disapproval should be with those who establish the quota and not with the angler making a buck while having fun. As was said,if he doesn't catch them somebody else will.Thus the zero impact.
As far as coolers or lack thereof;a couple hours in the sun is just fine for bass.These are not tuna.
