South Florida Peacock Bass

George Darnell and his daughter Marcia who was down from Alabama were out on Thursday January 28th for some Peacock Bass fishing in South Florida. The canals are alive and well even after the fish kill of two weeks ago. The peacock bass faired well and we boated about 25 fish up to 4 lbs. Early spring action is right around the corner so give us a call for information on how you can get in on this great fishing in Miami canals. The spawn for Peacock Bass is as exciting as fishing gets for these fish so e-mail me at floridafishing@bellsouth.net further questions. We can be reached also at (954) 445-1811.

South Florida Peacock Bass

The Peacock Bass fishing in the canals of South Miami are still hot despite the cold weather South Florida has been experiencing. We are getting in the high's 30's now. On Saturday January 2nd I had Mike Kenny from Washinging D.C. out for butterfly peacock fishing. Mike had a great day and we totaled 24 peacocks up to 5 lbs. with this beauty Mike landed shown here. Live bait has been the best bet with these colder water conditions.

It's been a great few months in South Florida for Peacock Bass fishing. I just wish this cold weather would let up, because the fishing would be even better. We've had nights in the low 40's which could kill these Amazon cichlids if the fish can't find warmer water. On November 3rd I had two clients from Iowa who were happy to be in our weather. The two guys caught over 40 peacocks with this beauty at 7 lbs. which was John's first fish of the morning.

South Florida Everglades Bass Fishing

Luis Rojas and I were out fishing last Friday out in the South Florida Everglades and boated some nice fish considering how hot it is. We caught 12 largemouth bass with this nice beauty weighing five pounds. To catch fish like this in the Everglades is fun for this time of year. The water is usually so high we usually don't waste our time fishing much except on Lake Okeechobee in the mornings. Now peacock bass will bite good this time of year without much effort, but largemouth bass will shut quickly after the sun gets up high in the late morning.

South Florida Peacock Bass Fishing

We've had multiple fishing trips for peacock bass in Ft. Lauderdale and Miami canals this summer and have done quite well. Peacocks will usually bite no matter how hot it gets in South Florida. Native of Brazil and a tropical species, heat will get them feeding quite well. We usually recommend live bait because they will eat shiners much better than lures. The last trip I had we used all artificial bait and caught this beautiful butterfly from a Miami canal. As we head into winter the bigger peacocks should start to spawn again very shallow. Fishing for these guys up shallow is something exciting. Give me a call if you are visiting South Florida to arrange a fishing trip with me.

Now that the water is heating up our South Florida Peacock Bass waters should be wonderful for catching these beautiful Amazon fish. We are the only place in the continental U.S. that these fish can be caught. Hot water keeps the fish very active which we are finally experiencing. We had quite a few colder evening which will put these fish into shock. Once the water gets into the high seventies the spawning ritual begins and should last late into the summer until the rain shuts down the fishing again.
