That's a great bass. Personally, I never spot-burn small ponds that have a lot of bass. There are just too many selfish bastards out there who love to take home every bass they catch in a bucket. Besides conservation officers, the only defense we have against this is keeping hot spots on the down-low.

Figure a 3 pound bass is like 18 inches. According to Pennsylvania biologists, that fish is likely 8 years old. What are the chances of a bass living eight years when the foreigner bucket brigade is hitting a lake hard and taking home everything they catch?

Good point I tried to change the title but it's still there. Maybe I'll delete the thread. But at least that place is catch and release only so they'd run a risk.

And no all of RV is accessible now the gates are open. During the summer you couldn't get elsewhere, now you can fish the whole shoreline.
