Today I had out Meck Austin from Kansas City, Mo. Meck is here on business and staying at one of our popular Ft Lauderdale hotels and wanted to get for a half day of Peacock bass fishing.
We started around 6:30am and headed out to the fishing spot, knowing Meck only had a few hours we went right to the best fish I had. Once on the water and going through a few sample cast with Meck, he was all over the peacock bass. Almost four cast in a row, Meck had peacock bass on and was loving it!
About two hours into the trip Meck looks at me and says, “how about after the next fish we start heading back.” So, I looked up the bank and said, “cast right by that pipe.” and he did. Almost instantly he was hooked up for yet another Peacock bass fishing picture.
We boated 15 Peacock bass and spent less then 2 1/2 hours on the water. So, it’s safe to say, “if you have a few hours and your on business in the South Florida area” give me a call, let’s “hook up” for a few hours and go fishing.

Today I had out return customer Bob and his friend Steve from popular Danbury, CT. Last time down they fished with Capt Mark Shepard on Lake Okeechobee and had great success on wild shiners. So today I decided t take them deep in to the Everglades for some fast action largemouth bass on artificial baits.
First thing in the morning we were checked by the Broward County sheriffs, really nice guy. He checked everything, including Florida fishing license…hey and we passed with flying colors. After blasting off, we slowed and landed at the first location starting with topwater action. I don’t know if it was the morning bite that we missed or the full moon, but there was not much of a topwater bite at all. Sometimes, you just need to go with the flow and not try to force feed them and that’s just what we did.
After a few line size adjustments, we found the combination that worked. once again our Danbury, CT crew had another successful trip boating around 25 bass in 4 hours. For all of you guys and girls in CT, we really appreciate all the support and business you provide us.
Cannot wait to see these two back for another round, we had a great time!
I look forward to talking fishing with all of you!

Today I have the pleasure of taking Frank and Shawn from Philly, PA. They are fishing with us for three days, today they decided to go after peacock bass in Miami.
The early morning was the best bite on artifical lures, I have not seen it this good in a while. We caught a few peacocks in the lakes and decided to move to some other spot that I have been producing numbers for me. When we got there, the bite was on with shiners. As the day went on, the rains started to get really bad. So, we went to take shelter at a bridge and while we were waiting we decided to fish under it. Great move, first we hooked a snook and then tarpon. The rain never slowed down, so we decided to call it a day. I do have Frank and Shawn for two more days. Today we ended with 14 peacocks, 1 tarpon, 1 snook and 1 largemouth.

Today I had the pleasure of taking out Ernie Hockenstein on Lake Ida. Ernie, contacted us at BassOnline.com several weeks ago, his son lives on the Lake Ida change and has seem me driving around catching fish. Knowing Ernie loved fishing, he wrote down the name and number off the side of my boat and gave us a call.
Ernie and I had a great day and the morning was full of excitement. We started throwing a small pop-r lure, the peacock bass were just loving it. As the weather started to change and morning rains started rolling in, this called for additional change. So, we elected to go with a sub surface lure and started catching even more peacocks as day when on.
When the rains started coming down even harder we decided to call it a day, we ended up with fifteen peacocks in just 4 short hours. In any conditions this is a good morning of fishing.

Today I had the pleasure of being with Erica & Rick Skier from Palmdale, CA for two days of South Florida bass fishing. The first day of two days we picked them up at the Hard Rock Casino and Resort and then drove to the dock. When we left the dock in Miami this morning we decided to fish for Peacock bass, this is why they traveled from California.
We ran way south of the boat ramp and fished around the mouth of mainly bridges and some canals. The bait we were using were live shiners and for artificial we threw top-water , jerk baits and rattle traps. Within minutes of our first cast Erica scored with a few nice Peacock bass. As the morning went on we caught several more with a few nice ones. This day of fishing in the Miami area was filled with a lot of stories and action.
After a nice lunch at one the local watering holes, we were back on the trailer and headed to the Hard Rock.
On day two, I arrived at the Hard Rock Casino & Resort where they were right on time and ready to experience the Florida Everglades, as they have heard so much about.
We arrived at Everglades Holiday Park and headed out to my first location. being it was the weekend and fathers day there was a noticeable increase in boat traffic. So, we decided to make a few moves which paid off for the most part. Both, Erica & Rick caught fish at every location we stopped at, including a few bowfin which Erica seem to enjoy a lot.
