What part of "bass grow too slow in Canada" for it to be a viable put-and-take option do you not understand? It's already been explained to you at least a 1/2 dozen times both here and on the "Alberta Bass" thread.

Yes...it works in other areas,like the deep south USA where they feed and grow year round,but a put and take fishery in AB where the bass would only actively feed and grow for 3-4 months of the year is out of the question.It takes a CDN smallmouth 5-8 years to reach any resemblance of a respectable sportfishing size(3lbs?).
