Super User South FLA Posted April 4, 2009 Super User Posted April 4, 2009 Got up this morning only to have my brother bail on our fishing trip. So I made a few cast with a golden shiner tandem willow spinnerbait, this is what I pulled out! Quote
-HAWK- Posted April 4, 2009 Posted April 4, 2009 Thats a nice bass man, way to go. That canal looks awesome. Quote
Super User Bassn Blvd Posted April 5, 2009 Super User Posted April 5, 2009 NICE bass!.. I need to come pay you a visit. Quote
DINK WHISPERER Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 Absolutely beautiful man, CONGRATS!!!!!! Quote
KyCam Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 Nice fish, I wish I had any body of water in my backyard, especially ones that hold awesome bass like that!! Quote
Super User South FLA Posted April 5, 2009 Author Super User Posted April 5, 2009 Thanks guys, my canal system is pretty good, and has plenty of forage (tilipia/bluegill) for the bucketmouths, I added a fish feeder and got a neighbor to add one to his dock. Also, every bass I catch over 4lbs on excursions I release. The cool think is my brother caught a 12lb ??oz donkey out of here over 6 years ago, I hope I run into him ;D. Quote
paul. Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 very nice dude! looks like that fish had a gigantic mouth. congrats and hope you get another one soon. Quote
Super User SoFlaBassAddict Posted April 12, 2009 Super User Posted April 12, 2009 NICE bass!.. I need to come pay you a visit. You and me both, the Largemouth in my lake have stunk lately. Hopefully that'll improve before too much longer. Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted April 12, 2009 Super User Posted April 12, 2009 You and me both, the Largemouth in my lake have stunk lately. The Peacocks on the other hand have been really active... Have the opposite here. I'm bassed out, I only want Peacocks. Quote
Super User SoFlaBassAddict Posted April 12, 2009 Super User Posted April 12, 2009 Have the opposite here. I'm bassed out, I only want Peacocks. Not a bad thing to see cruising around your backyard. Although this morning I did see a TON of small Largemouth cruising in schools around on one of the other lakes in my development. Small meaning probably around 10 inches or so, hopefully they grow into maturity soon.. ;D ;D Quote
Super User Sam Posted April 12, 2009 Super User Posted April 12, 2009 So there was a reason why your brother bailed on you. Had he stuck to your plans you would not have caught that beauty. Quote
baboosicbass08 Posted April 12, 2009 Posted April 12, 2009 Man thats awesome, the mouth and eyes on that beast are huge! Quote
BlackBassman Posted April 12, 2009 Posted April 12, 2009 Which canal system is that? I usually do good on the c13 and c14 Quote
mrlitetackle Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 ya, well.....................................I'm totally jealous to say the least. But great catch (also good to hear you put'em back) Quote

Super User SirSnookalot Posted April 14, 2009 Super User Posted April 14, 2009 I would have to say they are yellow perch, not bass. Without question Peacock bass, which aren't bass at all but cichlids from South America, we have no Yellow perch in South Florida. Quote
