There is no minimum by the state...The state actually removed the 12 inch min requirement for catch and keep. Though the tournaments still maintain 12 inches as a minimum. The permit allows for the slot limit and more than one over 24 inches to be brought to the scales and weighed in then released


They have been issuing the permits for many years.

Did I say anything?????

Ok... point taken. Hey doobie, these anglers ain’t fishing with beetle spins and crappie jigs

Jason Christie looked pretty stoked to be back in tournament scene

[cwilt]

Good ol florida bass, looks like they are giving them anglers a case of lock jaw. Kissimmee/Toho usually gives up 30+ lbs during tourneys.

[JohnD.]

It is a 15 to 24 inch slot lake

FWC cut them a tournament waver , 5 fish 12" or larger. Co-anglers could weigh in 3.

[tcesni]

I like that the leading co-angler is from Ontario. How cool to drive away from the winter weather in Canada to sunny Florida and then catch a nice bag of fish and getting to lead a BASS Open tournament.

Glad it is not being shown live; no way could I watch any of this DINK FEST!!

[JohnD.]

Jason Christy was the first person to walk across the stage , weighed in - 14 oz.

Jason Christie weighed in about 45 min later with 18.15 lbs.

Will the real slim shady please stand up !?!

These above average temps the last couple weeks have sent these fish for a loop. The sun was blazing today , made it tough for a lot of folks.

You constantly bitch about others doing exactly what you just did.

[Gamblerman65]

I thought Bobby Lane would be near the top..

I don't see anyone on any of the tours fishing with beetle spins and crappie jigs. So what's your point?

[Dubee]

Not really, i'm not bagging on BASS for it. I'm fine with any tour weighing what ever size they see fit.
