It is my belief that most of my fishing trips are like that... or at least I can say I released them all. :roll:
use your opportunities ...

If they're shallow enough.
Actually listening to what other people say is worth the effort.

Can't say that I've ever done it for grouper, but I have done C&R trips for trout, reds & bass. With trout the season being closed comes into play, but much more often these trips are directly related to how much fish I have back at the house. They stay fresher if left in the water until needed.

I will still fish this month and if I catch a trout I will release it. I am not going to target them but they are still fun to catch!
