Bass Mekanik Posted April 20, 2007 Posted April 20, 2007 I love the month of April. Fish are spawning the cold fronts have stopped and school is out. Now that I finally have an associates degree I can get back to work and back to fishing. Went out today to my peacock honey hole and it was a blast. When I got there 20 peacocks were schooling together killing all minnows in their path. There were also 5 pairs of spawning fish and I snapped a cool pic of one. It was midday and the bite was on. I landed 7 schoolie p's on my new "custom" x-raps(they just have 4x strong saltwater hooks 8-)) Then I switched it up and tied on a blue roostertail. The fish just hated that thing being jigged in their face and i landed another two. I ended the day when I lost my favorite Pro Trap due to a monster peacock swimming under a underwater pvc pipe with a stupid duck on it. It was a great day to say the least. Here are the few pics I took. Does anyone know if they make cameras with polarized lenses? I tryed to take a pic through my glasses and it didnt come out to good. Quote
Lightninrod Posted April 20, 2007 Posted April 20, 2007 Beautiful fish and pics young man! Love to get down there and yank a Peacock onto the shore 8-). Dan Quote

Super User T-rig Posted April 20, 2007 Super User Posted April 20, 2007 Those are such cool fish! Congrats! Quote
Murray Posted April 20, 2007 Posted April 20, 2007 yes they make lense covers that are polarized. Quote
Super User Jimzee Posted April 21, 2007 Super User Posted April 21, 2007 Look at the bump on that thing's head. Words cannot express how much I want to peacock fish!!! I'm jealous ;D Quote
Bass Mekanik Posted April 21, 2007 Author Posted April 21, 2007 I got a couple more today and another cool pic. The first fish weighed 4lb5oz and put up a heck of a fight wrapping me around some lily's and almost snapping me off trying to go through a concrete tunnel. Anyways I snapped a pic of the swarm of peacocks at my secret spot. There is probably around 20 or so in the pic. If anybody is good with photoshop can you adjust the lighting or something so you can see the fish better. 4lb5oz Bedding Pair Big school Quote
