Anything from the ocean.

Freshwater is walleye, big bluegill, y. perch, crappie, trout. in that order. But like them all! (Btw...Lmouth Bass is the dumbest fish that swims! )
Salt water is Dorado, wahoo, kingfish, cobia. But wish I could fish for more so I could get a larger list to decide from. I like a fish that does fast power runs! These are ones that I caught and liked alot.

Oversized sturgeon are definitely my favorite to catch. As far as fish to catch and eat, it would be a toss up between striped bass, crappie, surf perch and burbot... depending on timing and my mood at the time.

NJ carp. Caught 56 this year. Landed 3 last night with corn bait. Lifetime biggest were 42.5, 33, 32 and 32 lbs on corn meal bait.

I mostly Pike fish. Anything on a fly rod is always fun though.

Around here the spotted bass are wonderfully feisty. Don’t have to be that big to give you a good fight to the boat. But the fights I remember years later are the smallmouth. Just harder to find.
I do also enjoy setting the hook on a striper. They just don’t fight as hard once you get their head turned to your direction. Together with catfish there can be a sluggish element to the fight.
