I suppose that would depend on, if the water contained various species or a particular one.
Personally I prefer a water that has some movement. Although I have fished the Trent with some success, it's the smaller intimate water's that hold my attention and fire me up.
In particular the drains of Lincolnshire and Cambridgeshire, and the smaller rivers of Yorkshire. These have remained a constant source of fascination for me since I first picked up a rod.
No doubt this was largely influenced for many years by my choice of species. Summer time was spent chasing Barbel and Chub, winter time was almost exclusively Pike with the odd sorties after Zander.
Nowadays I seem to get the biggest buzz from catching larger fish from the smaller venues. It may seem strange to other anglers, but it fascinates me.
Is there anyone else out there who's an oddball like me?
