South Florida Peacock Bass

Peacock bass fishing in South Florida is awesome this week as my customer ray Rubio of Philedelphia can attest after two days of bass fishing. On day one we went to Miami and fishing for Peacock Bass with Ray Sr. & Ray Jr. and the three of us landed 42 Peacock Bass up to 8 lbs. Ray Jr. caught a 5 lb. beauty and this nice 8 lb. fish. The state record is just over 10 lbs. On day two Ray Jr. and I fished on the lake Ida chain of ;lakes in Palm Beach county and caught somewhere around 100 largemouth bass up to 4 lbs. What a great way to start of the fall season here in South Florida.

Florida Everglades Bass Fishing (January 2011)

I can't believe what an incredible spring bass fishing season we've had so far. This month I've had multiple largemouth bass fishing trips to the Florida Everglades & Lake Okeechobee with great success. Each half-day trip has exceeded 40 largemouth or more and a few days we've caught near 75. This is an example of the nice fish the Florida Everglades has to offer. She weighed in at 7 lbs. but my fishing buddy Jonathan lost one even bigger. With warmer water just around the corner bass fishing is only going to improve.

Here's another 5 lb. largemouth from the Florida Everglades system. We've seen a big improvement over the last couple weeks in the fishing and the weather. Cold night time temperatures have impacted the peacock bass fishing and largemouth fishing in all of South Florida. We had multiple fish kills of peacock bass, cichlids, snook and tarpon everywhere. But the Miami area and the canals of Ft. Lauderdale are fine and still producing quite well.

South Florida Peacock Bass Fishing

Jim Boone from Birmingham, Alabama and I were out peacock bass fishing on Friday. This time of year peacock bass fishing can be good or bad but lately is been great. Water levels and temperatures can be tricky because peacock bass love hot water. It really depends on how hot the South Florida weather is. Today we just had a cold front come through dropping the nighttime temperatures into the low 50's. It usually only takes a few days for these fish to start biting again. Mr. Boone landed 13 peacock bass in a half-day trip up to 4 3/4 lbs. all on live bait.

South Florida bass fishing for numbers is no better anywhere! The Everglades catch rate they say is 1.4 bass per hour. How does 12 or 13 per hour sound! That's the average we had on Tuesday May 27th landing 64 bass in just 5 hours plus many more missed. The Ft. Lauderdale area for largemouth bass between March and July is the best on the planet for total numbers of largemouth bass caught. The peacock bass fishing is also great as the water gets hotter like is right now. For more South Florida Bass fishing information click on these two links, Amazon Peacock Bass Fishing.

South Florida Everglades Bass Fishing Reports 4-15-08

They are still biting in the Florida Everglades. Yesterday evening we were out for 4 short hours until the temperatures dropped to the high 50's in April? This is very unusual for this time of year. But despite cooler temperatures the bass are still hitting quite well. In less than 4 hours we boated 22 bass up to 3 lbs. and missed quite a few as well. The water is still high and will remain that way because with Lake Okeechobee being too low the water management department hasn't the nerve to lower the Everglades. Largemouth bass fishing remains good in a few certain areas and knowing where is the secret along with only a few baits working with any consistancy.

It's time to think about booking a bass or peacock bass trip to South Florida before all the rain starts and floods the marshes.
