I'd rather catch any fish than eat one. Just not a fan of fish, so no.

I do sometimes, bass are good eating! I prefer the 14"-16" fish personally but will occasionally keep an 18" for the fryer. We keep a few mabey 2 or 3 trips out of 150+ trips a year.

If I want fish to eat I go catch CRAPPIE. They taste much better,easy to catch & and a blast to catch.

I sometimes think about it ... but I think they are very pressured, so I let them go. I like crappie, catfish, white bass, stripers, walleye, perch ... so they can go back.
I don't begrudge anyone that wants to eat them, that is why they have a limit just like everything else.

I will keep a few about 2 or 3 times a year. Just when the wife ask for some to eat. I never put fish up its only clean soak in ice water and cook for me.

I eat bass a few times a year. I make a slightly spicy batter and deep fry. Good stuff.
