tough one. the only thing that i don't like about fishing is "not fishing". love the smash on a pencil, then the dive after...love the stillness of a late night retrieve interrupted....love the smack on an eel....love walkin' out, geared up for battle...but probably the biggest thrill starts that moment, on soft plastic, wood, eel, doesn't matter, where the pole just bends and its game on. its an even bigger thrill when i first see that striper in the water in front of me. bigger is better, but they are a beautiful, awe inspiring fish, no matter what size.
