One thing I find interesting is the love affair people seem to have with the largemouth bass. Killing a bass has become a sin to most folks. the interesting part is the bass is probably one of the most effective predators in freshwater. By the time a bass has reached a keeper size hundreds if not thousands of animals have lost thier lives down its throat. Its for that reason I feel no remorse for the bass once he has reached the fillet knife. turn about is fair play

sometimes after conducting a shocking survey I have lots of fish that should not be returned to the pond (crappie, green sunfish, stunted bass, etc.) there is a public housing complex not far from here and I take the extra fish there. I have never had a problem getting rid of fish over there and they are going to someone who could use some extra food.
