16934, spawn 07

Well, I was hoping that more people would reply to my last post about cool spawn stories. Anyway, the reason I posted that was to investigate. Every year it seems to me that the spawn gets worse and worse. I keep on dreaming of great springtime fishing but it seems to never happen. Does anyone else notice a similar trend? It’s always something; the weather, the water levels, etc. Between all that and the fishing pressure, I wonder if the largemouths are even reproducing at a normal rate. Just a thought, but what if we stopped fishing the spawn for a while? Perhaps certain lakes could be off limits in spring time; this could be rotated to keep the lakes healthy. Wouldn’t it be better in the long run? Wouldn’t there be more fish for every one to catch? I know all of this sounds crazy, so what do you think?
