Hi Kat,
Don't know where Jensen beach is, but if it's not in South America, then you're not likely to catch a peacock bass.

But is WEST Palm Beach on the West Coast of Florida? RJS. Is the Touch Screen with all the models distracting you again?
If its not on West side of it I wonder why its called WEST.

Palm Beach, or "Palm Beach Proper", as $OME refer to it as, sits between the ICW & the Atlantic Ocean... West Palm Beach is West of the ICW (& MU¢H "lower rent".)

I have been to the Amazon basin twice. Both in the 90s There is no other types of fishing, in my opinion, that compared. The first trip my best was a 13.10 lb and the second was a 22,5. the first on a woodchopper the second on a 3/4 oz red spinner bate. both are on my wall to keep me fired up about peacoc bass. one day my fishing partner caught a 24.12 lb and i had to hold him by the belt or he would have gone over the side of the boat. If i had the know how i would pit pics of them both on this site. Big beautiful beasts.

There is a Palm Beach and slightly to the west of that is West Palm Beach.

You have to fish the canals just West of Miami. I would hire a guide the first time.

Probably should just refer to the coasts as left (west) and right (East).
But if you're looking from a Canadian perspective.......

If a location is west of you it is also east of you if you go far enough!! As Robert says - just saying.

¿Why on Earth, is North Canton (Ohio), South & West of Canton, OH? ...[But right there, BOARDERING Canton!] ... Seems like we've ALSO got some "little burgh", called "Upper Sandusky", which is actually, WAY South of Sandusky.

I thought you had to go to Mexico for peacocks? Where are they in the US? Not sure where Jensen Beach is.
Peacock bass are all over central Florida south. Freshwater fisherman are catching them around Tampa. I haven't done any fishing for them but talked to guys that target them. One guy showed me his catch a 6 lb.

I hadn’t heard of them being in the Tampa area I live in Port Charlotte area and we have none around here that I know of. It will be great if we start getting them in the channels in my area.

I have a friend lives in Bradenton, if I visit her would I have a shot at a peacock? How much is an out of state temp license for a 72 yo retired Navy vet?

Looks like you have to be a resident to take advantage of any military discounts.
I haven’t heard of any hot peacock bass fishing in the Bradenton area. I would plan on heading closer to Miami. Maybe your friend knows something. If you get there and find any good peacock bass fishing please let me know. I am only 60 miles from that area.
