Lately it seems that every time I turn on Bass center or watch a bass master’s Tourney on ESPN they are promoting and encouraging the tactic of site fishing Bedding Bass. I have spent some time reading studies that Report minimal effects on the fish and their young as long as the fish is released immediately. But in most of the tournaments I watch the fish put in the live well and carried miles away from their nest! I see no sport in this tactic and stand firmly against it! I know someday sportsman will look back on this technique with Shame. Am I alone with this opinion?

I'm with ya number1dylanfan. Anything for a buck when it comes to tournaments. How can it be defended to put those nesting bass in a live well carry them around all day long then release them miles from the nest? That's bass's nest is toast. The gills get a free lunch. What a noble thing to do.
This morning on the BassMasters Ish Monroe was being followed around by the Hooters Girls. They were cheering for him and he was part of the act. I like Ish but come on. I don't need a side show of glamour girls pimping chicken wings in my fishing videos.
