Default What have you caught? Want to catch?

I'm sure I'm way behind a bunch of you guys in catching different species of fish on the fly rod. I've caught:

Chinook Salmon
Steelhead
Rainbow Trout
One (very small) Brown Trout
Shad

I still want to catch:

Bass (largemouth and small)
Golden Trout
Brook Trout
Cutthroat Trout
Any other variety trout I've missed
Bonefish
Snook
ect. ect. ect.

What have YOU caught and what do you STILL want to catch?

Bob

I've only been fly fishing for about four years and it has been mostly for trout so my list is short.

Trout- rainbow and browns
Bass- large mouth
Sacramento Pike and a big sucker fish

What I really want to catch is a steelhead. I have only fished for then with a fly once, today will be the second time, but I am hooked.
