Like most, my biggest FW fish was a Carp... Never weighed one, but I have caught some huge ones in Cayuga Lake and the Susquehanna River up here.

Several honorable mentions however...
My biggest Brown Trout was 11 lbs, caught on a white painted 1 oz wheel weight off a car.

Couple of Tiger Muskies in the 38 in, 12-13 lb range.. one caught on a 1/32 oz Crappie jig...

Couple of 8 lb + Landlocked Atlantic Salmon out of Cayuga,.. Thats pretty big for this species.
Couple Channels Cats in the 10 lb range..

22 in, 7 lb + LMB...


Pretty mundane really, but at the time they all looked like whales to me...bob

I have had some big carp through the years and got a really nice striper on the Raritan in South Bound Brook a few years ago. Biggest recently would have to be the Cat fizzzzzz.
