I agree that the take on a swimmer is tough to beat. I love how the take and initial run is all one process. Just slowly reeling that metal lip and out of nowhere ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ, and your rod is doubled over. And your fishing partner in the backround "fish on!", but you can barely hear him because you so focused on the task at hand.

honorable mention:
1. just being out there. Solitude, taste of salt water, taking waves in the chest, pulling bass on to the rocks. the whole experience for me is addicting.
2. Watching a big healthy bass swim back into the night, and my legs still shaking afterwards.
