That's the sort of spots that the next state record will be caught, Public waters just don't have such monsters in them, what with many folks practiceing catch and grease. And yes, I know they have the right to these fish but it's still sad to see a ton of folks comeing to the docks with stringers full of 12" largemouths.

I have a spot that's public that not too many folks knew of yet that holds big fish, but that is starting to change though, I'm strating to see more and more people there. And many of them a walking back to thier trucks with limits of 3-4 pounders.
It'll be like everywhere else in the next few years.

*******, No offence taken, As to your question. I used to be a "keep everything" kind of fisherman, I would go out for Trout,Bass and whatever else was in season, and keep limit after limit putting it all in the freezer, only to find much of it went to waste.
I still keep fish now and then, but only if I plan on fish for dinner that night.
I feel that whenI see a fisherman keeping a limit of bass or trout or whatever, then I see that guy back at the lake or stream keeping yet another limit, I can't help but think that many of those fish go to waste, it may or may not be the case I know, but does anyone really need to put 100 trout or bass or crappies or perch into the freezer?
I only keep what I plan to eat that night or the next day, Fresh fish is always better than frozen.
As for Releaseing Largemouths? Well, I'm an amature competitve bass angler, if I kill'em all I'll hve nothing left to catch! I know that those that eat bass are entitled to keep a limit of them to eat, and don't falt them for taking them, Just throw back the big 3,4,and five pound females and keep some of the the 2 pound males, they eat better than the bigger one anyway!
