>>1642944Fg knot
>>1642972I mead mean some would argue 1'200 pound blue marlin put up the best fight because its literally wrangling an animal 4 times your size
Some would say tarpon or sailfish for their size and acrobatics
Some would day bluegill or similar for their fight per pound
Personally i cant say i have an oppinion on the best fish having not caught a ton of different species.
For ohio id have to say steelhead for their size, power, acrobatics, etc. For salt water, of what ive caught, spanish mackerel is a great power/weight ratio. I can only imagine what a king is like. Id also love to go after red drum and tarpon, too. Especially on a fly rod.
>>1642976I really want to go shad fishing some time, especially with a 4 or 6 weight fly rod. Do they happen in nj? What time of year do they do their thing?
