[size 2]I'm with the Kid. Slots allow one big fish for the wall. And the only difference between hanging one on the wall and frying that piggie up is that you'll probably only put one on the wall, but continue porking on the big boys until they're gone from the resource.[/size]
[size 2]Every fishery is different, but I'd rather fish a lake where anglers return the piggy sumo's and keep the dinks. There's WAY too many waters where the reverse is true. Even our fisheries biologiest recommend returning the larger bass and keeping full limits of the small ones at pretty dang near all our bass fisheries.[/size]
[size 2]I'm not trying or intending to push some elitist attitude, really. I just want to be an asset to our limited resources and not a liability. Heck, the Sturgeon Kid might have released that piggie last fall!?![/size]
