One thing you should note about tournament bass fishing is that they never kill their fish. Whatever you think about bass fishing, we should envy their care for the resource. (I think they get penalized if one of their fish ends up dead.) Anyway, due in part to the catch and release ethic that rules the bass circuit, bass fishing is better than ever. Wish we could say the same about steelhead fishing. We all need to do our part.
