Thai Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 Did you catch him on a lure? If so what was it? Do people ever tell you you look like Jason Segel? In your avatar at least haha Quote
Super User Bassn Blvd Posted December 17, 2009 Super User Posted December 17, 2009 You have a potential state record, depending on the size line you used. Quote
topwater.va Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 I hear Peacocks give a hell of a fight, and I can't even imagine how fun that fight might have been. Very nice catch!! Quote
Krzkev Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 That is definitely a trophy sized fish. My biggest is at 5 pounds and that fish you have is way bigger. Very nice. Quote
PeterF Posted December 17, 2009 Author Posted December 17, 2009 Thanks guys. I caught him on a Rapala X-Rap SXR-8 with a olive green top and siver on the belly. The line was 10lb test Power Pro and it has upgraded Owner #6 hooks because I've had fish smaller than this one get away because they tear the stock hooks apart. Quote
Super User CWB Posted December 17, 2009 Super User Posted December 17, 2009 WTG! That's it. I'm moving to Florida. Quote
bocabasser Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 You have a potential state record, depending on the size line you used. i was thinking the same thing doug. i believe the florida record is 9.08 pounds. not sure though. did you weigh that fish or was that a guesstimate? very nice peacock.

brianbass Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 can I come to your pond and fish? That is a monster! Quote
Super User Grey Wolf Posted December 17, 2009 Super User Posted December 17, 2009 Great fish !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
PeterF Posted December 17, 2009 Author Posted December 17, 2009 I used a Boga Grip to weigh him. Quote
Thai Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 You're lucky they've only torn off hooks, those 8's can break rods too! But what an awesome peacock you have there Quote
bocabasser Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 I used a Boga Grip to weigh him. very nice and very large. 1 pound away from a state record. go back in 6 months and that fish will weigh 9 pounds. Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted December 17, 2009 Super User Posted December 17, 2009 Great Fish ~ What Knob Head ! A-Jay Quote
Super User Bassin_Fin@tic Posted December 19, 2009 Super User Posted December 19, 2009 Nice one man! Way to go! Wish I was a little further south to go and hunt me some of them :-/ but at least I avoid the heat! Quote
