Florida Peacock Bass Fishing

Victor Campbells 5 lb. Peacock Bass

It’s been a little colder than usual for South Florida Peacock Bass fishing this winter in South Florida. Our numbers for trips are still decent for this type weather pattern. As the weather gets warmer so will the fishing get much better. You can expect to catch between 10 to 25 peacock bass for each fishing trip depending on frontal conditions. Live been has been the best choice and will continue to catch fish even in the worst conditions. Artificial lures will do better when the water gets hotter in the next month or so.

Florida Peacock Bass Fishing

 Florida peacock bass fishing this month has been good despite this being the slowest time of the year usually. We were out Friday October 29th for about 7 hours and landed 17 fish up to 4 lbs. on shiners and artificial. As the water cools the fishing will improve as the bigger males and females get ready for the spawn. Here’s Tim Gray’s nice butterfly he caught on live bait.

Florida Peacock Bass

  Mike and Bill from Massachusetts were down for their first fishing South Florida and decided to try for peacock bass. The guys were a little skeptical about catching any fish but I proved them wrong by landing 14 nice fish up to 4 lbs. which Mike caught. They had a wonderful time and should try the Florida Everglades for Largemouth Bass on their next trip I suggested. We have some of the best fisheries in the country all here in South Florida.
