Hi everyone. I has been a while since I have posted anything or have been able to go fishing anyway. I went out early and tried hitting up some canals around town that I have been checkin out for Peacock Bass. I got some shinners and hit the spots. It started off slow at first, but once the sun hit the water it was on. I caught 12 in total all about the same size between 1 1/2 to 2 lbs and one 4 lbs. It is true what everyone says about them, they are quick and hit hard. The screen on my camera is broken so I wasn't sure if I was taking pictures or not and of course the 4 lbs that i caught in the morning didn't show up > but at least I have some to share. The Bass I caught when I came home in my lake. I had a two dead shinners left in my bucket and I was tossing them out to a small school and I caught one 2lber. I had someone that was walking by take a pic. When i toss him back in, out of no where this momma comes out from the deep. I hook my last shinner and toss it out in front of her and BAM she whacks it. ;D. I was very pleased

nice nice bass  ,,,,,,,,,,, ;D

Nice looking pics and nice HAWG!!! 8-)

Nice one. It tickles me to see that monkey jungle sign in the background of the first picture because that was my favorite place to go when I was little. Is that Cutler Ridge Bay mall in the background?

Very funny to see a fish held up in front of a busy street.

Nice catching!

nice work.  I've never caught a peacock bass.  I'm jelous!

No, actually I was in Pinecrest for the Peacock, near the kmart on US1. I also caught a few Oscars from there too. I was surprised because I didn't think they would go for shinners.
