No.
Maturity is when you have the power to destroy someone who did you wrong but instead you breathe, walk away, and let life take care of them.

Would if I had to, like if I killed one while landing it but, as a rule, I don't.  Don't like the taste.

Yes.  But I would much rather eat smallmouths.

 Nope, release them all. If I want fish to eat I will fish for trout, kokanee, perch, salmon, steelhead, crappie or catfish.

They actually taste delicious, but I'm with everyone else, catch and release.

Did growing up. Soak the filet in buttermilk then make fish and chips.
