Home Forums Fishing Freshwater is there a fish you won't keep or a fish you always keep?

I refuse to kill a smallmouth of any size. I also don't keep crappie 15" or bigger cause they lay so many eggs. On the other hand I never release a walleye that will keep or a spotted bass big enuff to make a sandwich. Walleyes because they are delicious and spots because they are really good and they don't get big enuff in our lakes to make a good sportfish. Spots have no size limit on my home lake and the creel limit is 20!
