I'll be the first to admit I keep a lot of fish. As long as I'm within regulations I see nothing wrong with that and will continue to do so.

I thought the limit was 8 per person... Either way... eat them and enjoy them. I very seldom keep fish but they are my favorite. Nothing like grilled striper with some Cajun seasoning... I usually end up giving away any I catch. This time of year..... if you take them out of the water..... then keep them. They usually will not survive if you can't unhook them in the water.

Nice fish! Yeah regs changed for all lakes above norman to 20"min and 4max. That's a healthy lake..there are some big fish in there.

nice CPR CATCH, RELEASE, "to the grease", Photo! nice fish and good to see young men enjoying the outdoors doing something they enjoy! Wished more kids were like this guy

Nice catch bro.Thanks for sharing the pics with us.I like to eat striper also.I have some weenie dogs and they love the red meat off of the skin side when I fillet em.Have you ever caught any up there with red spots on them?

Sure have bearclaw. Usually happens when they feed on sandy bottoms or around structure seems like. I think they rub against it and that causes it. My best guess anyway.
