I have no issues with selling bass.
My issue is with where are the replacements.
Pulled this off the USFWS site.
Notice any trend ?

Until there's none left to sell.

I'm OK with it but we can't chance that it runs out. Unlike farming where we replenish the crop, we need to be extra careful this crop replaces itself.

Otherwise Tragedy of the Commons Part Deaux and all.

I think people also use that mentality as justification for the manufacture of Meth.

I hope your kids aren't going to be taking up the family business. At some point, the comms will run out of a product to sell. Who's going to pay them for Charters when there aren't any bass left to catch?
