| Mine used to be King Mackerel. There is something very special about seeing a King throwing a cigar minnow to him and working him up. Like hand feeding a wild animal. I still like it, but, My favorite fish to fish for from a pier is Pompano in clear water. I love to see them coming down the beach and pitch a jig to them. That has become my favorite fish to sight fish for in our area. To be completely honest I would rather see them coming in 1s ,2s and 3s than in large schools, it seems more rewarding to fool a single than have a whole school chase a jig. I love that stuff. What is your favorite fish to fish for from a pier?

I like the pompano answer.
For me, I have to say 5-8 lb. Chicken dolphin. Because they don't come often, when you hook 'em they go batshit crazy and run like hell.
Second would be Bo-Bo's on light tackle when they come in super shallow. No where to go but out, & they run like hell to get there.

Nothing like a monster jack crevelle to test your muscle and your tackle. Not the trophy feeling of catching a gulf coast game fish but ya get what you came out there for....screamin drag and a bowed up rod.
And in the days that followed the islanders came to know him as kane mano, the shark hunter....... http://www.forumpictureprocessor.com/gallery.asp?gallery=1718 "TEAM KANE MANO" "The 2008 Spring Unoffical PFF Shark Tourney Winners!"

I Would have to say Cobia is my favorite. Like Ben said, there is no other feeling like having a first shot! pompano would have to be my second, especially in super clear water.

hands down tarpon. they can be so hungry and sometimes they'll eat anything, but tricking spooky, picky fish... simply no better feeling than that moment when time seems to stand still between seeing them eat, setting with every ounce of energy you can find in you, and the almost immediate jump or walk. might only be 1.5 seconds, but it seems like 3 minutes in my mind and those memories are burned in my head forever.

| My favorite is spanish mackerel. Part of the fun is that I also catch kings, reds, big black drum and a bunch of other things while going for the spanish, using casting spoons I either made or customized.
