Yeah, I see guys all the time keeping anything and everything but there within the confines of the law and the fishery is very healthy it seems so to each they're own for now. Me, if I can't fillet it, I don't keep it. So 10" is roughly the limit. Like Don Don said, my freezer isn't in need. If the lake needs. Limit, then I'm all for it. Guess I'll actually have to buy a ruler now lol. Of course, in all my years on the water at Barnett, I have been checked Zero times. But I play by the rules so I'm not worried about it.
