Have not posted in a few years but while I was in Florida in February, I got some really good fighting peacock bass.

Cool fish, didn’t realize Florida yet had a fishable population.

They are everywhere below Jupiter. Stocked in the 1980’s. Great fighting fish.

Hey Ludak, glad you made the post. Beautiful fish. I too would love to catch one. Maybe someday. Hope to see more posts and pics from you from now on. Thanks so much.

Awesome I take my oldest boy down there fishing every year and he talks about catching one of them maybe this year I’ll get to the canals and let him snag a few

Those are beautiful Fish Ludak! I myself would love to catch one of those. Thanks for posting, and post some more when you catch em’ 🤔 What was your Bait of Choice for targeting them?

Nice. Looks like you're fishing in one of the canals. Did you use lures or live bait (shiners? worms?) I used to fish with some success in one of the reservoirs in the Croton area in Westchester. Thanks for posting.

Bought a few different lures in the local Walmart but live shiners work best, they just can’t resist

Going back in the winter and live shiners is the best way to go
