what fish have you caught that put up the best fight?

I went hunting in Alaska in the 90s and got my first graphite rod and Spider Wire to take along. The first cast by the tent, I hooked a grayling and was shocked and amazed the way the vibrations came from the fish to me. Everything seemed to rattle, after a lifetime of monofilament and glass rods. I suppose it still feels the same, but now I am used to it and don't notice.
