What is/are your favorite species to fish for? I'm mostly a largemouth guy, but I also enjoy going for walleye, pike, smallies, and especially tiger muskie (I live in New England). If we're talking saltwater it's yellowfin tuna and fluke. How about you guys?

All about the Bass in open water and trout in streams. They just seem to always be the most fun.

Salmon or steelhead runs in the fall are my favorite

trout wherever I can get them, mostly rivers but if I can catch em in lakes, that's what I'm going for. In lakes/ponds, I try for pike and walleye when I'm in the north/midwest, or if I'm home in NY then bass or pickerel.

haha I don't really fish for them much anymore, but they were my favorite as a kid cause I could catch them off the dock and get them off the hook all by myself and whatnot

Sunfish were fun as a kid. But the only panfish I like to catch anymore is yellow perch because they are such a cool looking fish. :)
