The favorite "take" for me has to be when the jig bouncing along nicely 40 feet down and 120 yards out, as you go to pump the next bounce the line just comes taught and does not budge an inch. For a moment you think you're hung up out there solid to the bottom, so you set hard again but in that split second of that thought you now feel it pull back and line comes off the spool slowly, then as the fish turns , line comes off even faster. Now you know you have a good one on. That is my favorite take. I have not had the pleasure of all that many of those but I sm ile and cherish each and every one of those because you know it's got to be a 30 pound or better fish.
I also love the topwater action when using a surf howdy or a pencil popper.
Also the take when reeling in a needlefish plug out on the beach at night, the take brings you right back to life and wakes me up.
