LMB and Catfish are the only ones I have ever kept up with.
LMB: 12#8oz.(when I was 14)
Channel Cat: 28#5oz.
Blue Cat:76#3oz.
Flathead:42# even
The Flathead was the most fun out of the lot. I was kayak fishing on Wheeler Lake when it hit. It hauled me around for over 30 minutes and around 1/4 mile. I can't imagine what it would be like to hook into a small shark while kayaking saltwater, but will hopefully give it a try this summer.
Micro reply :
My biggest boated is a 90+lb bigeye tuna off Oegon Inlet, NC.
Biggest unboated is a sand shark, undetermined weight, off Cape Charles, VA at night. I estimated that at 200+lbs. Caught on a live 10" croaker in about 90 feet of water.

fourbizz reply :
This is from the second time I went to Alaska. This is the trip that I fished the Kenai. Fished for 4 days without boating a fish. On the very last day, I had decided not to stress over getting a fish, just have fun.
Pull into the first hole, drop the kwikfish back, click the spool into gear, turn my head to say something to my mom when the rod gets hammered. About a 15-20 minute fight that took us about a mile down river. Ill never forget the way I felt when I had that fish sitting at my feet.
