The greatest thrill of fishing lies in fighting a game fish that tests your tackle and skill as an angler. Maybe the hardest part is tempting the fish to bite.

No matter how you find your enjoyment and thrill when fishing, there’s a game fish species that’s right for you.
Many different and unusual fish species swim in our oceans. Some can see in near-dark conditions; some can change gender, and at least one can actually breathe air.
