That's an easy one for me. Carp caught in the passaic on the opening day of trout season last year. Wish I had the link but a buddy's got the whole video of the fight on his phone. Fish went about 35lbs or so. Best fight in the fresh by far considering it almost spooled me and I still managed to land it. I guess that's why they call it the "poor mans bonefish"!

10# rainbow trout.. Got her on the musconetcong river down in hackettown.. During the fall stocking.. 2 years ago on the fly rod.. It was an amazing fight.. Fish ran so far up river i had to follow it before it spooled me.. Same day my father got a 9# brown trout on 4lbs test line.. It was a banner day!

Freshwater's gotta be carp, up to 20lbs.

Mikey- hope you framed that shot of you with your rod in your mouth, it's excellent!
