That's the way to do it, if you wanna mount the fish then keep it by all means, but we don't have to keep all these big spawning females. I've been guilty of throwing everything over 12 in the livewell for awhile, it's almost became an automatic reaction. This year I'm keeping the scales in the boat, so I can catch, picture and release. Mentioned this to my fishing buddy and he laughed and said he was keeping all his, if he catches any, well hey that's his choice, I won't think anything less of him for it.
