As someone who once fished beds (20 years ago), I know how tempting and fun it can be. But with all the pressure on the Winnipesaukee fisheries from TOO MANY BASS TOURNAMENTS, couldn't a small group of us come together and agree to lay off the bass for a FEW WEEKS while they make MORE bass?? Seems like a small price to pay for a healthier lake and fish for all to enjoy in years to come.

After all, how hard is it to nail a smallie on a bed when they will bite ANYTHING that intrudes their little temporary sanctuary? C'mon -- be a true sportsman and give them a chance!
