I dont know if you knew this but im just going to throw it out there. Sometimes you need to revive fish by moving them back and forth so they can get oxygen through their gills and once they are revived you will start to fell them trying to swim away... thats when you know you can let them go and have revived.
The hooks you were prob using were small hooks for trout so there is no need to feel bad throwing a bass back with the line in it's mouth just cut the line as close as possible to the stomach with out hurting/cutting his gills and put him back ASAP.
p.s When you land a bass try not to scream or spook them when out of the water they are known to get heart attacks cause they eat fatty foods.

so instead you decided to get the hook out n kill the poor bass....
shame on you...

I wouldn't worry about it...I believe the legal limit is 5??? You pay for your license and to fish the lake, its your right if you want to keep them.
If the DFG feels the bass are becoming endangered then they can raise the limit. I wouldn't let people get under your skin about it.
If you decide to keep bass in the future, I guess you learned a lesson not to post the pictures of it on here unless you want to hear a bunch of people whining.
