| Smallies, hands down! Lunker largemouths are fun, but nothing beats the fight in a smallie! |

it depends on where you are.....in CT i'd have to say largies because the opportunity to catch BIG smallies is only at 1 or 2 lakes in the state. Go north a little and I say smallies..nothing like Champlain, finger lakes, St. Lawrence, Erie for HUGE smallies!!!!!!!!!!! Not these CT runts, I'm taking 5-6 lb monsters on a fairly regular baiis!

| i agree with chuck. you can't beat the fight of the smallies. but hooking into a BIG bass with heavy tackle is pretty darn comparable if you ask me. |

Honestly, I get the biggest kicks from largies on a jigNpig and/or Huddleson swimbaits.
As far as the "fight" goes,..smallies are definitely better than largies but then stripers are best of all.
But there's just something about the feeling I get when fishing a jigNpig in thick cover and then setting the hook HARD, on something that barely moves,....I just can't describe it!!
Likewise, whenever I get a fish to load onto a big swimbait, that big heavy rod bows over,..my heart starts pounding and i hear that theme-song from "Jaws" playing in my head,...
THAT's where it's at, as far as I'm concerned!
