As someone who has been involved in the forefront of the C&R movement that started in the 1980s I've always thought it should be about selective harvest. I keep bass periodically for my own consumption. Generally it’s a bass just over legal size but could very well be below 32 inches so I won’t take this pledge. That said, I’ve always endorsed the idea of keeping a larger bass only if it was your personal best and was to be mounted or used for personal consumption.

I like the general idea of the pledge but feel it would have more impact if it was “1@32” but less than 40”, for example – protect the cows.
