Killing bass?

Depends on the body of water.
Some small to medium lakes often need to have certain sizes (usually small)
culled out to avoid stunting and achieve balance.
Some private lakes may have such populations and low fishing pressure that a
few people aren't going to affect things significantly no matter what they
take out.

A friend directed me to a local fishing web site. One of the
discussion pages was about freshwater fishing. I was amazed to see
pictures of guys holding up stringers of dead bass like it was still
1954.

I don't think I have killed a bass on purpose in over 20 years and I
don't think I know anyone who still keeps bass. Do any of you folks
eat bass?
