RE: biggest fish
My favorite is black crappie followed by small mouth bass. My largest fish was a 120 pound blue shark on an Orvis 12 weight fly rod off Point Judith RI followed by a 35 pound Chinook salmon on the Salmon River, Polaski NY.

RE: biggest fish
My favorite is northern pike.I also love steelhead fishing in the streams on light line,4-6 lb test.My biggest fish would have to be a 20 lb or so northern pike.I have caught a 24 1/2 inch largemouth bass and lost an even bigger one.My strangest catch was a 21 inch walleye in a bass pond in Ishua NY.No net and light line,I managed to land it.I love to fish but don't get out as much as I used to.For a fun time,I love to go for the stocker trout on opening day with a 3 1/2 ft microlite rod and 4 lb test.I use rooster tails and a 15 incher feels huge.Looking forward to a couple of weeks and opening day.I hope the DEC gets out and stocks for opening day.

RE: biggest fish
My favorite fish by far is the smallmouth bass. There swims not a more beautiful fish or one that fights as hard for its size. The only thing that looks as nice is a brook trout maybe. my biggest smallie is a 19 3/4" stream smallie that i released. i ended up dropping that camera in the drink a couple days later[&:] so i feel like a moron. My biggets overall fish would have to be a 20#+ carp, 15 lb channel cat, or a 45" muskie. Largemouth's are also great fun to catch, but a smallie fights alot harder.
