It's like applying for a driving license or to donate blood. It's not fair.

But I've only gone bass fishing once in my life. More of a surface thing around lily pads, tbh...

It never occurred to me until just this minute but why is it "bass" ('cus phonically that's bass) and not as it's pronounced, "base"?
A mmmm.hm account to the first person who can give me a reason and then convince me that reason makes even the tiniest bit of sense.
Warning.By even mentioning mmmm.hm I put myself at risk of incurring the wrath of some ghey internet avenger.

late 14c., of things, "low, not high," from L.L. bassus "short, low" (see base (adj.)). Meaning "low in social scale or rank" is recorded from late 14c. Of voices and music notes, from mid-15c. (technically, ranging from the E flat below the bass stave to the F above it), infuenced by It. basso. Meaning "lowest part of a harmonized musical composition" is from mid-15c. Meaning "bass-viol" is from 1702; that of "double-bass" is from 1927.
base (adj.)So bass in the musical sense has its origins in base, and the current spelling is influenced by the Italian basso. In other words, the spelling changed out from under the pronunciation.
late 14c., "low, of little height," from O.Fr. bas "low, lowly, mean," from L.L. bassus "thick, stumpy, low" (used only as a cognomen in classical Latin, humilis being there the usual word for "low in stature or position"), possibly from Oscan, or Celtic, or related to Gk. basson, comparative of bathys "deep."

Now, other thanthat timethose times that I secksed Dions mom and she said (and I quote) "mmmm.hm", I have even less knowledge of that than I do deep bass fishing.

Following the example of Italians is your attempt at making sense?
