Mine is a toss up between Walleye and Chinook Salmon and often depends on what I'm eating at the moment.
I kinda' lean towards walleye when it comes to eating but Kings (Chinook) are definately the Champ when it comes to angling.
My favorite is trout in a river or stream. Second to that is probably active bass, they are great fighters and topwater fishing is alot of fun.
Number 1 is bass, great fighters and 2nd would be catfish also good fighters.
#1 trout #2 bass.
#1 walleye #2 pike
To catch or eat? To catch for freshwater it is Smallmouth bass. To catch and eat for saltwater its a toss up between stripers and tuna.
For a southern boy it has to catfish!
Rainbow trout and cutthroat trout.
Alaskan Lake Trout is the tastiest Salmonid IMO. Chinook or King Salmon will give you one heck of a fight but I will go with Silver Salmon on lite tackle 'cause they jump more.
In fresh water love to catch a big Fla Largemouth and eat Walleye, Crappie (Speckled Perch in Central Fla) and Channel cats all fileted and in that order.
One other thing Arctic Grayling are very tasty too kind of like eating a Crappie (not like a trout at all).
Any trout'll do.
Bass i just love the way they fight. A catfish fights good too.
trout. fun to fish and eat
Bass and bluefish.
Trout, then bass, crappie&cats tie for 3rd.
As far as eating is concerned bream and catfish can not be beat. Both are also fun to catch, although I will spring ultra-light fishing for bream over almost anything.
the kind you eat that taste good.
Try catching a carp on super ultra-lite 2pound line. It will jump more than a trout, fight harder than a bass, and hunker down harder than any catfish ever thought of.
Small Mouth Bass, they are aggressive abundant and fight great, my favorite fish.
cats straight up. they fight, are easy to catch and you don't really have to do anything while catching them. Not to mention it's cheap to catch 'em.
Smallmouth. Great fighters and I love to catch striped bass too
To be honest anything that swims, but based on how often I fish and the accessibility in my area.
#1 Catfish
#2 Bass
#3 Panfish
PIKE they fight and dem' water wolves attack just about any ting'
Always loved bass but never cought a keeper.
I love catching what i love to eat! Freshwater: Im eating Crappie and Walley Salt: Dolphin and Grouper
Game fish I gotta go with Largemouth Bass and Marlin
Catfish. I luv fishing for cats, i can be lazy smoke a cig and jus sit down and relax and fish at the same time. I like them cuz i usually fish for em' at nite. They also taste awesome, fryin it cajun style is the way to go.
good old landlocked salmon anytime. hardest fighting fish around on 3 pound tippet
Brook trout. They are living jewels.
Steelhead Salmon, Pulaski NY
i know your gonna think im crazy but bluegill, if they were the size of bass everyone would fish for them...they are the hardest fighting fish for ther size
i also like fishing trout and bass a lot
I love walleye.
Nate
muskie because they seem like a little gift that you can catch every now and then even when your not fishing and give you good bragging rights.
Muskie, Steelhead, Smallmouth bass, Tarpon on the fly, pike, salmon, carp, catfish, and trout all tie for 1st.
to eat it is catfish but to catch bass
nothing beats catchin bream, whether they are warmouth or bluegill or shellcrackers they cannot be beat
For me I love the sport of panfish on an ultra-light rig for freshwater but out in the gulf it's between grouper and bull drum (large black drum).
panfish in the winter cacthing them on that little pole they all feel like monsters
My number one is bass and my number two is trout!!!!!!
My number one is bass and my number two is trout!!!!!!
Either largemouth bass because they are just awesome or rainbow trout because they are so easy to look at.
panfish
Spanish Mackerel easy to catch, fight extremley hard, and great on the table.
Walleye and muskie
