  1. WTH!!
  2. Sure set hooks are garbage. I have had more lost fish on those hooks than I can count. The barbs seem to bend and break way to easy.
  3. ^why would you call out a spot like that? I am not saying you are right or not but why would you do that? That is why people swirl backgrounds. I'm all for sharing information and I've never faded a background out, my policy will never change. The further south you go the better the peas get, if anyone gets down this way, I'd share what I know. Peas are abundant in Delray. Here is how I see it. If someone posts a picture and doesnt name the spot he was fishing, and you THINK you recognize the spot. Keep it to your self. Rather than advertise it to the World Wide Web. I just think thats common courtesy, if the person posting the pictures wanted to share the location he would spell it out in the original thread.
  4. This is like me telling everyone that Im consistently catching 15-17lb Bass in My home waters in Florida.
  5. The Shimano Citica 200E is a great option for less than $120... Plus its VERY compact and light.
  6. They get those Giant sholders from pumping iron and slamming tilapia all day. ;D
  7. Try walking into a DMV in Palm Beach, Broward or Dade County. Thats straight scary.
  8. This sounds like an "Old wives tale" if you ask me. ;D This is how I see it. If you are catching 4-6 lb bass and your state record is 9lbs. Then you have already found the BIG girls.
  9. Dont worry, Doug I have another Rock pit that produces just as well if your interested. Only problem is you wont be able to bring your bass boat. Jon boat/ electric only, And there is no boat ramp.
  10. ;D Thats because the water down here stays right around 80 degrees year round
  11. You know how they say "A picture is worth a thousand words". Well in the fishing world "A picture is priceless". Nice fish, And Welcome aboard.
  12. Well and really, let's assume it is the case. So what? This is not a paid service, it is free for us but not to Glenn. Glenn pays the bills, Glenn can do whatever he wants and if we don't like it, well... Truthfully though, i think the guys do a great job monitoring and running this site. Having moded a couple boards myself over the years, it is never easy, you never can make everyone happy. However, this is one of the first places I have been where I have not run into someone calling someone else Hitler or comparing them to Nazis or collapsing into political or religious screaming. It is a pleasant, almost always very family friendly site and you learn some great stuff about fishing...win/win Agree 100%
  13. Great fish and Pictures. That scenery is amazing.
  14. ID say 3-3.5 lbs, Nice fish!
  15. Thats cool, let me know. We can get together and fish.
  16. Sweet fish!
  17. No they are not native. They are one incredible fish though. Here is some info I found on the web as far as how they got here. The South Florida Butterfly peacock bass has become an extremely popular freshwater game fish. The peacock bass was introduced to the waters of south Florida back in 1984 by the fish and wildlife commission in order to aid in controlling the ever-growing number of exotic species of fish that were let go into our canals by their owners once they became too big for their tanks. The commission released 20,000 butterfly peacock fingerlings that were stocked into the major canal systems of southeast Florida. The initial stocking took place between 1984 and 1987, procured again by the FWC. Peacock bass are natural predators of the illegally introduced and abundant exotic fishes such as the African spotted tilapia and numerous other species of cichlids that had overrun sections of the canals in the metropolitan Miami-Ft. Lauderdale area.
  18. Its no giant but its a nice chunk. I went out today with a buddy and targeted Peacocks. I caught 3 Peacocks the two biggest in the photos below weighed approx 3.5 -4lbs. They may have weighed 4lbs but fought like they weighed 15lbs. On the first fish it destroyed my Spro Little John. Ripped the front hook and O-ring off, and bent two of the rear trebles. PEACOCKS = BEAST
  19. Welcome aboard.
