I fish in broward county for peacock bass because it is close and easy, but havent had any luck catching one bigger than about a pound. I know that if I travel down to Miami I could catch a bunch that size, but id like to stay local. any advice on catching bigger ones?

I've caught 2 to 3 pounders off cb smith

10 years ago I was catching decent size peacocks, up to 6 pounds in Westin. Now most are in the yearling to 3 pound range. They are coming back, slowly. Westin has a good population.

Thanks, I fish mostly in the Margate area and in the C14 canals but all the fish are yearlings but are still fun to catch, ill have to venture out to westin for some bigger ones!

Where in westoN? C11?

I've heard about out along griffin and 75, but the reports weren't too positive
