Guest kosta Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 Personally IDC I know there's plenty of fish in the lake and it's all about the challenge. I dont think anyones a big enough ******* to keep DD bass anyways which is what I'm after. Gave some mexican dude a 5lb the other day because and he was so happy that it made me kind of happy, hes been fishing for a lifetime and hasn't seen a bass that big. I tell people what lures etc i use but I'm a little reluctant to share what lake I fish online because as a bank angler I dont want my spots to be overcrowded Quote

To a lot of people, a big bass is just another fish. Quote

I guess it's a good thing sunfish is illegal to use as bait here as I noticed bait fishermen tend to eat whatever they catch Quote

IMO, game fish shouldn't be legal to keep unless caught by rod and reel, but Kansas has very lax restrictions, especially when it comes to bass. You can keep 6 over 18" from the lake those fish came from, and I've seen buckets of big bass caught on live shad getting taken home. You can even use bass for live bait here as long as it's a keeper sized fish and you count it towards your daily limit. Quote

Not just that, but that a jolly old man dressed in red with whiskers doesn't bring the toys!
