Wow has this thread evolved.
I still want the creel limit to change and a limit of one bass over 4lbs for the year.

If not too many people are keeping bass as some have stated. Then there should be no problem changing the limit.

Am I against keeping some bass for the table. No... But you should practice selective harvest.
That is keep a few of the smaller bass and return the larger.
I watched a fishing show last year that had as their guest The Director Of Fisheries for the State of Texas. He highly reccomended Selective Harvest.

Are there too many tournaments? I think the DEP is a better judge then me on that.

I agree what jighead said on the tournament limit for bass. But again that is for the DEP to decide.
