Default one fish and only one fish............

I know this question has been asked before but i'd like to change my answer. if you could catch one fish and only one fish for the rest of your life, what fish and what tackle.
I was going through the new issue of 'on the water', a newish magazine for the northeastern fisherman, and I came across a picture of a baby atlantic bonito. it was about 9 inches long and looked to weigh about 3/4 pound.
perfect size for my favorite tackle. penn 420ss ultra light reel spooled with stren fluorescent 4 pound test matched to a 5'6" ultra light spinning rod. I've taken everything from snappers and baby jacks to baby tarpon to 10 pound bluefish on these types of setup. fish about this size would give a fight and a half and since it's easier to tote this setup then any other........ this would be my one fish on my one setup.
my new computer is not compatible with my old printer so when I get a new one set up i'll scan the photo and you guys can drool over it like I've been doing.
