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.

This is my biggest freshwater fish. Sadly, I did not get a measure. The big girl gave me a lot of problems in the net and by the time I got the hooks cut, I was more concerned with letting her go than getting a measure. Plus, it was only the 5th musky I had ever caught at the time and I had no idea how big it was until I showed the guys in the club. A lot of musky sharpies told me this was most likely a 50+ inch fish and it was probably over 35 pounds.

Four pound largemouth at Lake Gaston. Four pound largemouth at Merril Creek the weekend it open for business. Three pound brook trout from the Pequest. Not what you all have done but it made me happy at the time.
