The moment you realize..."Oh man!This one's big!".

A great example...5yrs back fishing with a 8' light action rod in the dead of night I hooked into a fish on a blurple bomber.When the drag started going and wouldn't stop I uttered that phrase.

24lb bass.By no means a monster but on that rod........

Cool

I know that for stifftip it's the feeling of a rod between his legs.

Why even try.........

For me the two exciting things is the feel of an eel being picked up and the feel of the tail thumping the line. The other one is when a nice fish takes you into the rocks and you feel the line rubbing against the rocks as you struggle to get it out.

From a sheer satisfaction and enjoyment stand point you just can't beat being out in the rocks on a dark night with a sky full of stars.
