Today I fished with Dr. David Pashley and some of his partners. They decided to go after peacock bass with the air temperatures raising and the water warming up I anticipated a good day.

As I expected, the peacock bass bite was on for the Pashley group. We moved around to several locations and picked away at the peacock bass with artificial lures and by the end of day we caught over (25) twenty five peacock bass.

The highlight of the trip was David catch this monster (7lb) seven pound peacock bass.

Congratulations David!

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….

Company Peacock Bass Trip

Today I took out the guys from the Castro Construction Company, out of Houston, TX. They wanted to see what the mighty Peacock bass fishing was all about while visting Miami.

We put the boat in the water down in Miami and made a long run to my first spot of the day. The fishing started off a little slow due to cooler water temperatures, but once the sun started to heat up the water the fishing action started to heat up also. It was a blast for the Texans and me. They boated 18 peacocks for the day up to 5lber being the biggest.

It was a lot of fun watching the guys catch fish and not to mention laughting about all the bass that got away.

I hope to see the guys again in the near future.

Till next time tight lines and good fishing….

Today I had out return customer Will Iovenko and his girlfriend from, Louisville, KY. Last time down to South Florida, Will fished in the Florida Everglades, this time he decided to give a shot at the hard fighting Florida Peacock bass.

Will and his girlfriend met at the tackle shop where I transported them down to Miami, where the majority of the Peacock bass were stocked and generally bite the best. On the way down the both of them have a million questions about the South Florida species, and I was happy to accommodate them and bring them up to speed on the progress of the peacock bass in Florida.

After a few location changes, we seem to locate a group of peacock bass feeding. The funny thing about a Peacock bass is, it really has a mind of it’s own. No, really…I have never seen a fish be so off and on, but man when they turn on it’s like words can not explain it.

It was great to have Will back with us and to have his girlfriend on board was nice surprise.

If you are in the South Florida area and would like to get out for some Peacock bass fishing. Give me a call, let’s “hook” up!
