Since we have just expended great energies trying to figure out what each of us should do with our catch, I wanted to pose another question...Can I morally eat a bass or does it conflict with Karma or JuJu? Can I feel OK about it? Should I fillet or eat it Asian style? Is one method of preparation OK or should I avoid it all together? If I fillet my bass the yield won't be as good as if I just gill and gut it? Is one way or another a waste of the resouce? Or if I suggest eating a 5 pound fish am I morally bankrupt? What do you all think, I just don't know the answer anymore.
Is it morally right to eat Calico Bass?

I'm sure that some of this is tongue in cheek but still a valid question. Personally, I realease most all Calicos unless they're bleeding or I have a hankering for fish, which I usually don't. I have absolutely no problem keeping a couple of 2-3 pounders, excellent table fare. My 3 favorite fish to eat in no particular order is Sculpin, Calico or Bank Perch, it just doesn't get much better. :tu:
As other posters have stated, release the big breeders, especially in So Cal. Keep a few of the smaller units, steam 'em, deep fry 'em, grill 'em, whatever, very good eating, especially in tacos. Now I'm hungry.

Name three famous people shot in the back of the head while sitting and enjoying themselves.
1) Abraham Lincoln by John Wilkes Booth.
2) The guy in front of Pee Wee Herman in the theatre.
3) Whoever is in the next booth when Cofe is eating breakfast at Guadalupe. 8@
