that's what i don't under stand. The only Largemouth Bass regulation I see in the Fish & Wildlife Digest reads:

April 15 – June 15
Catch & release only
(all waters
Apparently, catching, throwing in the live well, fishing with them all day, bringing in to the weigh station, weighing, and eventually releasing - suffices for "catch and release".

I'm not an ichthyologist, but his appears to me to be very disruptive of their nesting.
