Favorite is a relative term:

Favorite freshwater gamefish to pursue.... Largemouth
Favorite FW fish for the table.....striped bass.
Favorite FW fish just to catch for the sheer hell of it..... native brook trout.


Favorite Saltwater Gamefish to pursue......sailfish and spadefish
Favorite SW fish for the table.... either Mahi or Wahoo
Favorite SW fish to catch for the sheer hell of it.... four way tie between reds, trout, flounder and the indispensible croaker... though I do like sight fishing for cobia.
