What exactly is a bass season? Is the season the period
during the year you can actually fish for bass, or is it the period during
which you can keep them?

Depends on the state. In NY, you can't target them in the closed season. If
a CO saw you catch a bass and then make another cast to the same area with
the same lure, he could ticket you for targeting bass during the closed
season.

On the other hand, in VT, you are specifically allowed to catch them but
must release them immediately.
