Suckers, America's premier gamefish.

Glad to know at least one other person feels the same way. I can't tell if half the comments on this thread or sarcastic or serious, but if so then a lot of guys are just stuck in the past. The future of angling is species equality people, hell, if there's this many white suckers in spring creek then I might make the three hour trip specifically to target them! I've been figuratively pacing for weeks now waiting for the spring Redhorse runs in SWPA out of the three rivers, not for someone to throw minner' sized pelletheads in my local creek that fight like sockfish (aka Walleye) for the first two weeks after they're stocked. When the northern hogs are on a good feed I get myself down to the stream ASAP and start throwing nymphs in their faces, when I'm cruising the flats of Lake Erie with my boat in the summer and spot a nice Drum, you'd better believe that's what I'm casting a streamer at, and if I'm on the Niagara River in the middle of winter, I'm always hoping for a big Laker more than any other species.
Maybe I'm just crazy, but all-species angling is gaining a big following, and the term "gamefish" is going to be obsolete in 50 years from now.
