Spawn is around Memorial Day in Central NH.

When you hide your regional location answering your question is very difficult.

Welcome to BR....Very different climate cycle then North America. I recall your peak summer is in May, longest day in April and it doesn't get below 70 degrees F. The Largemouth bass will be similar to Florida bass where Photoperiod has a major impact on the spawn cycle because the water temps don't vary a lot. Florida starts their spawn in Jan-Feb calendar period. Phillipines could be 3 to 4 months sooner in Oct-Nov as a guess?

The real question is why are you cleaning a bass

I will answer that; Because they are a renewable resource and good to eat. Catch and release is something promoted do to bass tournament organizations, it isn't a goal of fishery management.

wondered how long it would take for this kind of reply.

I agree somewhat.

In lakes with slot limits it is encouraged to harvest bass.

also if you can't revive a fish it is better to eat it than waste it,

I caught a 3lb smallie a month ago that sucked a shakyhead through its gills. it was nearly bled out when I landed it.

tried to revive it for 15 minutes to no avail. I took it home and ate it.

yes that used to be right. sadly i have seen the climate change due to global warming and the months that used to signify the start of rainy season have been moved by 2 months (from june to august).  

 

it was a cluster of eggs about 1.5 inches. 

I was mostly joking I have to admit I have a dry sense of humor. I just figured somebody had to make that statement it might as well be me. In my opinion responsibly harvesting bass helps Fisheries.
