Most us Yankees just toss em back. No harm no foul..I find it strange that Americans love bass fishing so much yet the season is open when they are spawning? Bass isn't that huge here there's lots of other large sport fish but our bass season is closed until sometime in late June. No bed fishing allowed
There are bass everywhere there is fresh water. There are bass living in brackish waters down by me as well.I find it strange that Americans love bass fishing so much yet the season is open when they are spawning?

Same here. We have many tournaments for walleye, salmon and trout. There's bass tournaments as well. It's such a frowned upon thing here to fish them off beds and illegal too. Just diff places diff rules....There are bass everywhere there is fresh water. There are bass living in brackish waters down by me as well.
They are everywhere over here
There are tournaments all year long for big money as well.
Tournaments are way worse for fish stocks than bed fishing.Same here. We have many tournaments for walleye, salmon and trout. There's bass tournaments as well. It's such a frowned upon thing here to fish them off beds and illegal too. Just diff places diff rules....
Depends. Our salmon and trout (for the most part) are put and take anyways. We don't stock bass thoughTournaments are way worse for fish stocks than bed fishing.
It's terrible here guys catch bass in 90 degrees temps and keep them in makeshift coolers all day.Throw the dead ones in the water and brag about the money.Depends. Our salmon and trout (for the most part) are put and take anyways. We don't stock bass though
Bassmasters penalizes people for bringing in dead fish, they are all released back into the lake after weighing.It's terrible here guys catch bass in 90 degrees temps and keep them in makeshift coolers all day.Throw the dead ones in the water and brag about the money.
The bigger tournaments fish huge waters that can withstand some pressures and also are almost unfishable in summer due to water sports.My home lake is 70 acres and they fish for money every 2 weeks 20 boats or so.The two factors that led to the decline was tournaments that averaged 15 dead fish and who knows how many died after release.Also one man who kept every fish legal size ,but he fished 200 days per year for several years.Bassmasters penalizes people for bringing in dead fish, they are all released back into the lake after weighing.
What a incredible moment that all connects together so perfectly. I love this more than I love donuts.Ok, my older brother passed last year & his wish was to be laid to rest in the back country of S Fla that we have fished most of our lives. Tarpon being one of his favorite targets. My younger sister had memorial bracelets made up & we spent some time playing with some fish before the ceremony.
Watch the bracelet carefully - this is a very respectful "Poon" & my upper wrist/hand is still healing. And note, I am not holding him/her at all, I let go of the pilchard as soon as it struck.

That fat ass mf is the guy I WAS fishing with.
They walked this fish in a head wiind.It was beat.They let it go under the pier and when the wave was right ,they pull it around the piling .which is wider stance than the pier.Then they wait with it on for the next wave and maybe get by 2 or 3 pilings..Allway to this picture
Haven't you watched how high. ?Omg GwN. Wow! Sorry for your loss man.
You got me rethinking my wish for me when my dead body gets burned up. I, since around 14 yo have wanted to be cremated and my ashes to fertilize some pot plants and that herb to be smoked with my loved ones.
Now I gotta come up with a way to also involve those ashes and fishing somehow.
Just had to google that name. Nope. Never seen itHaven't you watched how high. ?
