Today I had by far one of my best Days on the water this year so far. Steve Herriges from Wisconsin treated his Brother in law Brain Zurn and his two boys Haydan 13 and Colton 12 for a 1/2 day of Peacock Bass Fishing. It was a windy day and clouds rolling in but the Peacock’s were biting. Steve start things off by catching the first peacock. Next Brian caught one and then the 1st of 3 Trophy caught on this day , A 5.65 LB. 22 ” Male Peacock Bass. Colton then hit his first and poor Hayden struggled to catch an Oscar, “but”, it was one of the biggest Oscars I’ve seen. Within the first 30 mins the boys had 11 fish in the boat including 2 Largemouth. For the next 2 hours they caught one here and there as we had to go find them, so with 16 in the boat I decided to move. This turned out to be a great choice as Haydan , after much complaining, several tree,s a few rocks and flinging a dozen shiners off, had his thrill of his life as he battled for 5 mins. to boat his 22″ 6.09 LB. Peacock . This is a true Florida Trophy. Watch the Action as this 13 year old battles his Trophy www.dropbox.com/s/4eccma6tsvwlbe2/20160309_111619.mp4?dl=0 His bragging right didn’t last long as his Dad answered back, on the next fish with a 6.62 LB. “HAWG” . The foursome totaled out the day with 19 , 16 Peacock’s 2 Largemouth & 1 Oscar. As true fisherman the boys all made replica’s of their Trophy’s and set them FREE for the next angler to catch, “YOU”. “What a Day”, Don’t miss out on the action while I’m on the bite , Call now 954-325-1115

This past weekend I had a nice couple from NC Brian & Wanda Grice. Wanda being the nice wife that she is gave this to t her husband as Christmas gift. On day one we headed to Blue Lagoon for a day of fishing for Peacock bass. Well my favorite weather girl lied to me , Julie said there was going to be no rain until late afternoon. Well needless to say she was wrong, and got drenched. The wind and rain never let up the entire day. Brian started thing off with a Mylan cichlid, and Wanda catching her first peacock bass. With the wind blowing strong we headed to the canals. the water was cleaner and the fishing was better. By noon and totally soaked we went to Sonia’s for a great Cuban lunch. Now on day 2 , it was a totally different day it was beautiful no wind and mostly sunny and a high of 84 degrees. Thing started out with the same as yesterday with the couple on their first cast catching these 2 nice fish Brian with a nice 6 lb Bass and Wanda with a peacock Bass over 4 lb. 19.5 “. They caught several peacock & largemouth bass Brian even battled a huge blue cat. The great thing about fishing South Florida it’s the only place you can catch both species on the same trip. After the 2 Days of fishing Brian caught the biggest Largemouth and Wanda catching the biggest Peacock Bass which she is mounting as this was her biggest fish she ever caught. After they battled these peacock bass they are looking to join me this fall in The Amazon. So get out of the cold and join me this winter and see what all the talk is about with these hard fighting Bass.
