Nice fish! I am like you I fish for enjoyment and practice C&R religiously.

I do not even have a livewell on my boat and do not want or need one.

The times I catch a big one like you I smile and slip it back in the water unharmed to the best of my abilities.

I think that the number of "club" tournaments that are held weekly on many of our smaller lakes and have influenced both a decline in the numbers and quality fish that come out of these lake now compared to times in the past.

I for one as far as tournaments are concerned am glad to see the MLF format that focuses on handling and landing the fish and does a immediate weigh and release rather than toting around fish in a livewell all day and then to a weigh in in a bag stressing the fish. I hope this becomes the normal way to handle fish and protect our fisheries.

Glad to see I am not the only non competitive one that just enjoys fishing for the challenge and enjoys watching them swim away after catching them.
