Re: 50 Pound Bass - Would You Release It?
To each is own... It is a personal thing.. We are spoiled this day and age, no question about it.. I have caught, released, and killed my share of fish over 50, my biggest 57, had more then one 50 in the same day...
It is not like the old days, us young people do not really cherish the striped bass fishery that we have. Guys like Joe murray are the true sportman, they kill and eat it all, every bit of it. If your not going to eat it, do not kill it, that is my motto.. I kill everything because i need to feed joe murray..
I would say take the 50 and enjoy it, you might never get another one, especially if you fish party boats or charter boats, if you fish private boats, release it if you wish, you will see plenty over 50 if you fish enough..
