Couple of bass

[Guest USMC 2013]

Caught five keepers between two of us yesterday.  The big one is a couple ounces over four pounds!  We caught at least another dozen sort fish that were only about an inch short.  Lake Barkley on the Kentucky side fishing structure in 10-15' water.  Most caught on plastics.

I didn't realize that anyone kept Largemouth Bass anymore. Thought everyone did the catch and release thing to help the population.

I think that's more for tournament fisherman. You actually help the population more by harvesting some fish. Spotted Bass is a good example.
