Hey everyone check out this bass I caught this weekend. Not a bad bass but and there is always a but... lol He was 22 inches long and only 5 pounds. Quite a bit under weight for your average 22 inch bass. So I want some opinions please. It would appear after I get up to about 19 to 20 inches my bass start to decline. So my question is this. Should I just keep these guys that look like this when I catch them? Let my smaller bass thrive and live and become chunky 3 pounders? I seem to be missing that 5 to 7 inch BG a guy like this needs to flourish. What do you all think? What's my best avenue? I don't have to have 6 to 8 pound bass to have fun on my pond.
thx for any input on this,
RC

The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!
Excerpt from Robert Crais' "The Monkey's Raincoat:" "She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."
Oh yean I know I do not have the correct size BG for sure! Sunil I think that is what I am going to do. The kids enjoy catching the smaller bass also and I would just as soon let them have more fun and let them bass grow up to healthy 3 to 4 pounders...

If you weren't going to eat him, I'd want to relocate him to new waters......
