Catching a bat is just bizarre, but evidently it's not impossible. Back when Little Brown Bats were common, I used to toss a small stone in the air and watch the bats swoop down to take a close look at it before the stone hit the water. Then a fungal disease called "White Nose Syndrome" came to America and the population of Little Brown Bats crashed. I still see bats, but no where the numbers I used to see.

Yeah, that reservoir was legendary before bucket crowd had their way with it. I'm actually surprised to hear the optimistic accounts of its current population in this thread. I've stayed away from that lake because I assumed it was over-fished due to its urban location.
Someday Fish & Game will get on board with the wishes of their constituency and either raise the minimum-length or designate certain bodies of water as catch-and-release only so the bass have a chance to grow.
