  • Traveling to two destinations defined by migrations; Alaska, home of the annual salmon run; the Chesapeake Bay, the sanctuary for striped bass as they move through their life cycle.

  • From the equator to the Gulf Stream, world-traveling game fish have arrived in the Sunshine State; is it more impressive to catch billfish or the torpedo with teeth?

  • Will it be bluefin and the wicked autumnal seas of New England or running 130 miles offshore in Florida for yellowfin?

  • Two parts of the Atlantic; two species that make good table fare; from Ocean City, Md., to Palm Beach, Fla., let the hook and cook competition begin.

  • One is a sea dragon with razor-sharp teeth; the other is one of the ocean's apex predators known for cruising the deepest, darkest waters; travelling to Alaska and the Florida Keys to battle these two very different species.

  • For many hardcore anglers, these A-list game fish are the species of their dreams and come with a level of difficulty that gives them nightmares; it's the tarpon and the roosterfish, two of the world's most prized catches.

  • How will two high-level pros handle the same fishing scenario? It's off to Marathon in the Middle Keys, one of the fishiest places in America, to chase permit offshore.

  • Their names may not ring out globally, but in their respective corners of the earth, Florida Keys mutton snapper and New England tautog are beloved by the locals.

  • Shark depredation is an all-too-familiar story with recreational fishing today, and cobia and kingfish are among their favorite targets.

  • Panama and Miami offer epic offshore fishing, but one does so among remote jungle islands in the Pacific, and the other with the city skyline in the background.

  • The 2025 season showcased battles of all kinds. A look back at some of our favorite fishing competitions from the past year.
