Every angler has a list of species they’re looking to tick off at least once in their lifetime – legendary, elusive, and often tied to exotic destinations. These are the fish that make you travel halfway across the world, dream about for years, and remember forever. Whether it’s the brute strength of a giant trevally, the acrobatics of a tarpon, or the sheer size of a Nile perch, each one earns its spot on the list not just for how hard it fights, but for the adventure it takes to find it.
