Nice Fish IFG , but where is the ice gear ? He He !!! When I was a kid I always enjoyed catching big crappie and Gills . Need to hook some here now !!
That would of been something to pull through the ice. Nice fish
here is my vote yellow fin, blue fin, and big eye tuna.. pound for pound they will rip your arm’s off..

Fish caught out of a stream always put up a better fight, not just because of current. I think it comes because of their competative nature from living in a harsher environment. The king of stream fish is the tiger trout. Never caught one over 12 inches, but they fight like the dickens.
Lake Texoma is on the Texas - Oklahoma border. It’s a huge man made impoundment formed when the Corps of Engineers dammed the Red River. I was fishing just north of Denton Texas with Striper Express Guide Service. I highly recomend them if your ever down that way. And no I didn’t get her through the ice. I just squnted real hard and pretended. She’s still in the lake, since I let her go.

Pound for pound the hardest fighting fish I’ve ever had the pleasure to catch is the albacore tuna, hands down. It’s like hooking the bumper of a truck. I’ve had longer tussles with yellowfin tuna, but they were much larger. Try it sometime.
Good Fishing, Kayote
I saw no one mentioned silvers. They have got to be the craziest fish I have ever hooke into. I have had them burn up my drag on an expensive reel. I seen them jump over 5 feet in the air and even had one jump about 3 feet on shore. Now that is the way to land them. Pound for pound there is nothing like a fresh silver. At least not that can be caught in fresh water. I have caught musky, kings, steelhead, macks, and Stipers all in the 15 pound class and none of them were anything like a silver. Have yet to catch a small mouth so I can’t really compare. I must admit a striper is a close second.

Did someone say Tuna? I’ll look for my Tuna pictures and post them later. I love catching Tuna also, especially Blue Fin and Big Eye. Heck, there is no fish I don’t like to catch. Except for Moray eels, but, they’re not really a fish are they?
Here are my big 5, the 5 species I like for fighting quality the best. I just listed the general species, since to break them out is impossible.
Jacks, Tuna, Salmon, Stripers and Cobia. Maybe next week we’ll do favorite ones to eat. I know Walleye and Triggerfish will be on my list.

WAHOO !

My votes -
#1: Sockeye salmon in a river fresh from the ocean;
#2: Summer run steelhead (like fighting a fish that is turbocharged).
I have cought the anchor rope a few times and it out fought most of the fish I cought!!(too many beers)"BIG FISH RULE"M.H.
lamo dude that’s a good one.. i have seen that alote myself dude
fish on dudes
without a doubt the very best fish to catch is the one ya have on your pole whether it be little 6 inch native trout to the huge tuna. I really don’t care what it is as long as I catch it 
and feel the fight.
Well** icefishinggod, as far as fresh water fishing, I have to say deffinetly **WIPERS!!! TIBBZZ
