And....

Sandman, I definitely see what you are saying, but I can't do it. I just don't want to kill the fish.

I would love to see the bass get gamefish status. If you look at what florida did with redfish and seatrout and the millions and millions the recreational fishing brings to their economy. Those fish are everywhere and they realize the benefit those fish have recreationally far exceeds their commercial value.

Personally, I could care less if it became a catch and release fishery for everyone. I just love to fish and that would serve my interests 'cause there would be that many more to catch.

I just see so many other fights that might be more important overall. If we took care of the other things on the front end, the fish population would be so much healthier, it could support both interests.
