    If I am out fun fishing yes, tournament day probably not depends on what in the box already. I would rather eat a 10"-11" fish best eating in my mind.

    Up until a few years ago, 13" on my home lake (Twain) was certainly on the rare side....finally things are turning around and I had the opportunity to throw a stringer of 14-16"'s back last year..... I think it helps (even if it's just to make me feel better)!

    Since I am mostly pre-fishing I throw them back, meat fishing they go in the box. Its hard saying if it helps or not, Wolf Creek has a 2 fish limit and they have to be 14 or better. Quite a few people have caught there biggest crappie on that lake. But right down the road at Toronto its a 50 fish limit with no size restrictions and that place is loaded with big fish.

    I have thrown back 13" fish on Pomme, hopefully catch them in a tournament. Any other lake they get released in Lake Canola.

    Anything 13 and over goes back in 10-12.5" for eating.
