Major Peacocks in cold...WOW...

[Krzkev]

I went with a friend to newly discovered canal system in the south somewhere, and we had the absolute best day I have every experienced catching peacock bass.  Wow, what a day, I can honestly say in 5 hours we caught 40 peacocks, and 15 LMs to 4.5 lbs,  the average fish being around 2 lbs. Heres a few pics, we got tired of taking pics after about 20 or so, here's the better ones.

You Palm Beach guys sure have a funny idea of what's cold.

My thoughts exactly!

Sorry guys, I do feel sorry for all you that have to cut holes in the water to fish this time of year.  But, when I wake up and it is 50 degrees out that is what I consider to be cold (LOL) even though it was 70 degrees by noon.  Those peacock bass really arn't a cold water species, so I was impressed that even in the cooler water they were still biting.  Here's a few more.

What canal is that exactly, if you dont mind saying?

[Krzkev]

Sorry everyone I don't want 50 boats fishing a 300 yard section of canal, all I can tell you is that it is south.  There was already 2 boats in the section fishing with us.  I think they follow the food,  there was allot of surface shad activity in the area.  They were on the rapalas like stink on a monkey.  Good luck, all you peacock hunters they are down there and chewing.
