    You have only one day left to fish. You can only fish for one freshwater species. The fish will be a all time personal best and is what you will be remembered for by your family and friends for all time.

    What’s the species?

    Open water Lake Superior lake trout on a jig rod. 40# plus.

    I’d go with a smile on my face… and a really sore set of forearms.

    I am going with a HUGE small mouth bass on spinning gear.

    For me it would be a 200# Halibut from Alaska. Caught ’em up to 95#, but nothing HUGE. Talk about aching forearms! Then I’ll go.

    52″+ Pike out of a canoe in the BWCA would just about do it for me.

    “You can only fish for one freshwater species.”

    Stick to the rules.

    If this game of speculation and make believe is open to saltwater species I’m changing my answer.

    I’ll go with thru the ice. You can’t beat the chase that leads up to the fight.

    It’s not.

    Freshwater only. In fact it should have been limited to United States waters.

    I’m still good. That 40# jig laker would likely come from Stannard Rock located in Michigan waters.

    Hard to choose between flathead and sturgeon. I would have to go with a 100+ lb flathead CPR from pool 2 of the sippi, would make me a very happy camper.

    Big ol Muskie! Caught on a top water bait, complete with video documentation.

    I want something that would inspire my 3 year old grandson to take up the sport, if I go before I can instill that urge in him.

    Mine would be one of those 12′ Columbia river giant sturgeon.

    Lucky for you a trip to the Nipigon is easily within reason and it will take care of your PB. Plus you can continue to fish afterwards.

    I’m not saying I’m changing my answer but this at least gave me pause to reconsider it. Those sturgeon are something else.

    No fishing for this guy, rather they would be fishing for me. Upon hearing I would jump off the nearest bridge, its that serious
