If I keep one or two fish a year I don't feel bad.I fish mostly from shore and with limited time.Haven't kept one in two years.If I do catch a keeper or two in one night I'll keep them and release the rest of the fish.Those 2 keepers will get cut neatly,vacuum packed and frozen and will last me the entire winter and most likely into spring.All will be eaten.I like to eat fish.I like fishing.If I was a pro like most guys on this board and was into big bass every time I went out I most definitely would not keep larger ones if I had a choice between them and smaller size keepers.Never had that choice or option.I'm pretty sure it's the charter boats that are doing the most damage to the population and most of it is under the radar,not the lonely shore angler who hasn't caught a keeper all year.
