Anyone have a little species of fish they like to catch? By "little" I mean usually under a foot long.
Warmouths are a favorite of mine. They come lunging out of nowhere, hit like tiny little cannons, and fight like the balls of muscle they are until you get them in. I had a nine-incher break my lightweight spinner reel. Plus, they have nice colors, and they're tough enough that they're just fine the second you let them go.
I also like seeing the color variation among longears. Not as much fight in those, but they do have enough speed to take the line ten feet sideways in about a second.
