Thumbs up Re: Favorite freshwater fish:

Gr8 poll Andy !! Wish i coulda voted fer more than one specie...Had a hard time deciding on my favorite as i actively fish for most of those fish throughout the season and the hybrids fight the hardest lb. fer lb....It was tough to not choose hybrids
Big native river smallies that tend to top out at around20-23" but i've witnessed 25-27"ers....couldn't leave out the almight river snallie

Talking Re: Favorite freshwater fish:

RAHWAY RIVER STEELHEAD!!! Yea BUDDY!!! I can't choose just one species because I fish for everything. I'd like to say that all the fish mentioned are my favorite. Can't get enough fishing in no matter what it's for.

TIGHT LINEZ!!!

I had to go with bass because probably 80 percent of the time I'm fishing it is bass that I'm after. Trout would be my second choice. Outside very rare catfishing days (maybe once every year or two), those are the only two species that I specifically target. Anything else I catch by accident.

There have been lots of studies on the delaware native rainbows and suprisingly they pretty much top out at about 20-22" before their lifespan is up...of course there are a few acceptions to that rule...>From what i here there lifespan is not as long as ur average trout because they migrate soooo many miles of river on a yearly basis up there....I caught a 20"er in late october last yr above the lordville bridge, then came back to jersey and got a 29"er in november...Go figure, but the jersey fish was no native....

Smallies are my favorite after catching more last year than I did my entire fishing life. Although the drag testing fight put up by Hybrid Striped Bass is always welcomed.
