First off let me say I keep almost every legal fish I catch. I understand releasing the big females but why are bass held in such high esteem compared to the other gamefish? If you catch a mess of crappie or cats it's almost a given that you keep em for table fair. Mention keeping a limit of bass and you'll catch a lot of flack from hardcore bassers that talk like they own every bass in the lake. I just don't get it. Every species is a renewable resource so what's the big deal with keeping a few bass for the table? I catch a lot of flack from some of the guys at work for eating bass just because they fish bass tourneys. My only response is : every fish fish I catch gets eaten,nothing goes to waste. Why are bass so special?

Guys that operate this site: It's great but the server is so very slow. I hate to come here because of the wait for everything. I mean: I'm trying to listen to the Ike interview and it's not a video or anything, just some still photo's and Ike talking and it downloads like it's a freaking 5 hour epic production. Please check into upgrading your server and speed up the site a little bit. Compared to other fishing and hunting sites this one is low man on the totem pole as far as download speed. Otherwise, I believe this may be the best bass fishing site that I've come across. Guy's IT DON"T HAVE TO BE THIS SLOW. Please consider an upgrade.
