Bass grow so slowly, a put-and-take attitude, even with increased stocking, can only hurt the bass fishing.

Apparently you've never met the bucket brigade who keeps whatever the hell they want. Most 'anglers' know exactly what they are and what they can do. It's everyone else who to this day still doesn't care.
