I just moved into heron bay from St. Louis area. Would love to get back into bass fishing. I would appreciate any advice on lures. Where can I hook into any peacock bass? Thank you for any suggestions. Matt

Two welcomes in one thread! Welcome, Brian. Welcome, Matt!

Boy are you in for a treat! I use to live behind target on sample road and the peacock bass were amazing. 4inch bright color grub and poppers would produce religiously. Welcome too BR!

Thanks everyone. I need to update my lure selection and the search for peacock bass will commence. My 7 yr old son is super excited. Matt

I live in Margate just East of Coral Springs. Snakeheads are fun to catch, but a pain in the ... Killed about a dozen of them this week. Don't find to many bodies of water this far North with peacock in em after the long "cold" winter a couple years ago that lasted longer n stayed cooler than usual. I get them in South Broward on spinners.

The canal just behind target on sample road has peacock. The canal is a part of a lake/pond that is deep enough for the peacock bass to survive the weather.

sweet! Ill have to check that out.

fstr if you go behind target there is a housing development the canal goes through there and ends at a bug lake. try a popper right at daylight or before dark. Middle of the day you have to use a chartreuse grub and should be able to sight fish for them.
