freshwater BASS fishing is hard to beat for me since I am in a landlocked state now days,
But saltwater fishing is great fun some of the species I have caught are much better fighters than any fresh water bass, I ever landed

As much as I LOVE Bass/Crappie Fishing I would have to "tip my hat" towards inshore saltwater/freshwater fishing the St Johns River, FLA.
I truly believe one of the best places to go fishing is in NE FLA on the St. Johns River. On the St. Johns River, you can catch 10LB + Freshwater Bass & Crappie/Shellcracker right next to 25LB Stripers, 10-20LB Redfish, Flounder, Snook, Drum, Sheephead, Etc. If you have a fast Bass boat you can be fishing "saltwater" for Bluefish 1 hour and Crappie the next!
What an amazing fishery.
I miss it.

I'm game for any freshwater fish there is! From bluegill to Muskies! I've caught them all in Pennsylvania! but i must say Bass and Trout are my favorites. I would like to try saltwater fishing, but I actually haven't been to the coast in a while.

I have easy access to freshwater fishing, so I have done it more often. And bass fishing's been my #1.
I also love saltwater fishing, becasue it's totally different from freshwater. Most saltwater fish fight better and you can use all kinds of live baits depending on your target fish. One other big difference, I do live baits a lot more when saltwater fishing.

Being from Louisiana we have the best of both worlds. Close enough to the GOM, to headout for a weekend or saltwater and if feeling lazy pick a river, lake, or bayou for fresh. As far as fish, bass and crapie for fresh and speckled trout and redfish for salt. You just have to love it when you can do all of this year round.

Saltwater Striped Bass.
The season is short, but when the bite is, it's ON. Last year there were no shortage of 20-30lb'ers. But for some reason the VA Marine Resources Commission thought it necessary to disregard the popular vote and change the season. They screwed us BIG TIME.

I'm from Wisconsin so I had only done fresh water until my son moved to Alaska. Now I go to visit and can fish salmon in the morning and halibut in the afternoon. Now I only ice fish at home and like to fish for walleye and northern pike. Pan fishing is fun when you have kids along and want to keep them busy.

For me it's fly fishing in rivers and streams. For me no other kind of fishing has that oneness you attain when you're waist deep in a cool stream targeting trout, salmon, or even bass.
Just the right line, the right leader and tippet, the best knot, and the perfect fly to match the hatch. Also, the perfect presentation is important so the right cast in accordance with the wind, current, ect.. is essential. When you catch a trout on a fly rod you really fell like you earned it. I love jigging for bass and wrestling in a big lunker but for me the art of fishing is at its peak in fly fishing in rivers and streams.
