While we are on the subject, I'd like to clarify something. I almost never keep bass. In fact, I think I have killed all of 2 sand bass in my life. One to eat (found it not good), and one for lobster bait (found it didn't work well). I've killed around a dozen calicos for the occassional tacos or tournaments. I've never killed a spotty. I like to joke about bass but in reality I probably account for a lot less mortality than the serious C&R fisherman. The only fish I've ever killed and not made an effort to see eaten was a barracuda for last years CTF, and that was mainly because it had been in the sun for hours before I got back to shore. My rape of the ocean this year so far = 2 YT & 2 lobster. But let's hope that changes soon.
