    I really like how their keeping track of score/length! Immediately releasing the fish after measurements is absolutely the right way to do it! Bass fishing tournaments here in the US needs to take some note!!! Kayak tournaments do something similar. I'm not a fan of bass tournaments taking fish to weigh ins at all! Stealing the fish from it's habitat exspecialy during spawning is horrible for future of bass populations! They should be measured, weighed then released in same area!!!

    • @atamagashock
      @atamagashock Před rokem +3

      That’s what the MLF does. Catch, weigh, release

    • @Stonehorn
      @Stonehorn Před rokem

      I agree, but weighing on boats also causes problems. Scales are all slightly different, and are only zeroed in the morning. You have a hundred scales, and I guarantee some of them are off. Officials often don’t let it settle enough before calling the weight, little things.
      The biggest thing American tournaments gotta stop doing is having comps while bass are bedded. That’s destroying more fish than live wells are.

    This summer has been absolutely amazing for me! I'm not a tournament angler. But I fish couple days a week in my kayak all year long. So far this summer if caught a 9lb 3oz, a 8.6, a 7.8, a 6.1, a 5.10, a 5.8, & multiple 4's. All is past 6ish weeks. Big swimbaits mostly & some big worms & a little friggin in the mornings has caught me bunch of monster this year. If course every one of them was released in good condition. I got quick measurements of length, girth, weight & picture. Then they all went straight back where they came from. I've found few good Honey holes for sure!

The tournament scene hasn't ever been my thing but I love being out on water fishing. I've really gained a lot confidence with big baits past few years. I'm originally born & raised in southwest Ohio just north of Cincinnati. I moved to southern SC 2 years ago. Bass fishing has been sooo much better!
