B.A.S.S. started putting referees in the boats so the fish could be returned to the water immediately. Studies showed
that when a male bass was taken off the bed he was guarding for 5 minutes, 50 percent of the eggs or fry would be
lost. I like the way things are being handled. We are having good years, bad years, with some mediocre years in between.
It's way better than a lake full of little bug eyed fish with a trophy every year or two.
