I didn't think it would pass when brought before the Conservation Advisory Board, but it didn't even make it before them. The state politicians have already killed it: https://abc3340.com/news/local/alabama-senator-announces-no-slot-limit-on-coosa-river-bass-fishing

I never noticed any difference in trophy quality compared to other lakes in the area that were the standard 14" minimum. So many bass fisherman are catch an release these days I'm not sure a slot make much difference now.
