Description: This symposium will explore the science and practice of bass catch-and-release including best practices for tournaments (livewell retention and catch-measure-release), addressing barotrauma, angling during the reproductive period, and other catch-and-release topics from the individual to the population. We also welcome studies that explore bass catch-and-release issues from a human dimension.
