Sorry about you Colts fans, they lost so we went for a half day of peacock fishing in the morning and a half day out in afternoon in the Everglades.

Great news for the peacock bass lovers, there are plenty swimming around still despite the cold weather. But we do need the water to raise up which should happen in March.

Till next time tight lines and good fishing….

I went out with Fort Lauderdale residents,  Max, Warner and Billy. We met early in the morning at BJ Bait & Tackle, with coffee in hand we cruised down to Miami for some fun with those hard fighting Peacock bass. It was short day that produced over fifteen fish. The young man Billy, was amazed at the large Iguanas on the banks. So much so, that he want to take one home for a pet….thankfully there much to fast to catch!

We look forward to taken them out again.

Till next time tight lines and good fishing….

Peacock Bass in South Florida

Today I had the pleasure of taking out Stacy & Jamie Kloos from Lakewood, OH on a peacockbass adventure in South Miami. We only had a short time to work because time goes bye so fast when you are on the water, so I jumped around to a few areas that I knew the fish would be hiding. Luck has it, every spot we went to we caught fish.

The peacock bass today were caught on shinners and rattle traps, by the end of our 6 hour trip we caught 15 fish up to four pounds as seen in the picture above.

Till next time tight lines and good fishing….

Today’s we are fishing with the Hyre family for there 2nd day in South Florida. On day two they have decided to go peacock bass fishing with us. Originally Chris and her daughter were going to stay in the area and go shopping while dad enjoyed a day of fishing. But after catching over 60 bass in the Everglades yesterday, all three of them could not resist the chance to catch a Peacock bass.

The draw a nice day for fathers day, with a steady lite breeze and slightly over cast. The Hyre family are from Elkton, RI so there’s nothing like these Peacock bass up that way but maybe a small-mouth bass.

We mainly fished with shiners because of having three people on the boat and we wanted there twelve year old daughter to put a few of these fish in the boat, and did she ever.

They caught about 28, and had a chance at 40 Peacock bass in 6 hours. Take a close look at the pictures above, is there a better fathers day gift to give?

It was great to have them down for the holiday, it was so busy for the weekend with fathers day. Hope you had a chance to get out yourself, if not give us a call. It’s never to late late!
