Default Keeper bass

Andrew - I stopped counting at 100 bass in the middle of July .so I guess
that I,m somewhere close to you in total count. It seems like my catch
ratio is about 1 keeper [15 inches ] for every 5 or 6 fish,which gives me
about 18-20 % .Pretty sad isn't it?? On the bright side , I've caught more
big bass this year than I thought I would .Biggest was 7lb2oz- 6-14 and
6-2with a sprinkling of 3 to 5 lb'ers mixed in .If I had to live on what I
catch ,I'd be a skinny man

I have again started keeping records of my fish catching. With the

new
boat, I thought I'd keep track of just how often I get out and use the

boat,
how many fish, etc.

While doing this, I noticed that of the 162 bass I've caught since May
2nd, 46 have been keepers. That means only 28% of the fish I've caught

have
been keeper size (14 inches). This seems a little low. Anybody else keep
records like this? How are you doing?
