I fish Lake of the Ozarks, and have begun to primarily only keep fish in the 10-12 inch range and put everything else back. Really enjoy catching those bigger ones, but figure there’s plenty of 11 inchers to eat. What would be the net effect of what I am doing...I guess in essence what I am asking is am I contributing to an improving fishery by doing this or is it of no consequence (aside from the fact I may be on of very few that do something similar). I would love to see 13-14 inch fish be more common occurrences.
