Jds63 Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 I certainly can't say I have caught all the species listed in this thread but so far my favorite and most thrilling to catch is brookies PB is 5.5 lbs in Algonquin Park, I could catch these beauties all day. Nipigon would be a dream come true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccmtcanada Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Add one to the steelhead category. Heading out in the boat is a weekend thing only...and as much as I love that, teasing steelhead from tribs will always be a thrill to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Gobies, Why? no one else fishes for them so then I would have no competition for them. Second choice woud be Peacock Bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gobies, Ron did you ever catch the show where Wayne Ozumi was fishing for them deep in the rivers down south? AMAZING. For me,if I lived in an area where they were caught,TARPON.

Fisherpete Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 I already fish for them now - Muskie. When I get my 50", maybe I will consider another species... but probably not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weeds Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 (edited) Hard to choose. Been thinking about it for a couple days and while it's a tough choice I'm thinking Musky. It was either Musky or Largemouth and the more I think about it the less different the pursuit of the 2 species becomes. Ambush predators, big baits (if you choose) short but wild fights. Big difference is that fishing for Largemouth is kind of like Flag football whereas Musky fishing is more of a full contact sport, except it involves giant treble hooks too. Largies are fun and games, no one gets hurt and everyone goes home happy and tanned. Muskies? Countless hours, a million dollars invested in gear, cold if not frostbitten, generally no fish and if you are lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time, a good possibibilty of bloodshed. So I'd have to say Musky. Why I have no idea. When I think about it, a Bass fisherman can be contented. I don't think you will ever find a contented Musky fisherman.

baitrummer Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 I would say fishing for carp 'Euro style' ( pods, hairrigs, bait alarms ect) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troutboy Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 Brook trout all the way! No other fish in the world that looks,tastes and fights better than a nice fat male brookie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musky or Specks Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Musky or Specks? Musky or Specks? Musky or Specks? Musky or Specks? Musky or Specks? Musky or Specks? Musky or Specks? Musky or Specks? I've always been torn. Because of the isolation in which I find the trophy class fish Im going to have to go with specks. But then again the challenge and physical stamina required to chase trophy musky would never get old mmmmm Musky or Specks? Musky or Specks? Musky or Specks? Musky or Specks? Musky or Specks? Musky or Specks? Musky or Specks? Musky or Specks? Musky or Specks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
