Busbey Posted May 30, 2011 Posted May 30, 2011 was screwing around with some different worms this evening and decided to try out a little lure. forgive me for not knowing the name of it or anything else in the tackle box. anyways, here is the 4 i caught in less than an hour... i had no clue they were in here and this big. next 2 are the same next 3 are same fish my size 12 crocks for measurement Quote

dhami013 Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 My man I would wait to get a boat in the winter months. It's the off season and if you can hold out just a little longer I can almost guarantee you will find a good deal. I waited 'til this past winter and got a 14ft jon boat with a 32lbs TM, a 2.7hp motor, has 2 comfortable seats, life vests, an anchor, a small battery, and a minnow keeper all on a trailer for $400 bucks. I got extremely lucky. But I saw tons of other decent deals that I don't see now because it's summer. Quote
Super User tomustang Posted June 2, 2011 Super User Posted June 2, 2011 It would help if his state had a winter like ours does Quote
Busbey Posted June 2, 2011 Author Posted June 2, 2011 actually guys, i am hopefully going to get back my dads old boat he sold to his friend 15 years ago. just a 13ft v hull with front deck. not too sure the deck is in too good of shape anymore. project time. but this is pretty cool that i am getting the boat i grew up on as my own ya know? getting it for 100 bucks since the guy never uses it. i would need to get a trailer for it and motors, etc etc. but the sentimental value is there and worth the effort IMHO.

Busbey Posted June 3, 2011 Author Posted June 3, 2011 this was yesterday. the first peacock i have ever caught. i noticed the little teeth on these things. kinda made me nervous to handle it. Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted June 3, 2011 Super User Posted June 3, 2011 That's a mayan cichlid, not a peacock. Quote
Busbey Posted June 3, 2011 Author Posted June 3, 2011 oh wow, i didnt even know. haha. is this a big one for that species? is there a shorter name for this fish? Quote
Busbey Posted June 6, 2011 Author Posted June 6, 2011 anyone got more pics of thus type of fish caught? curious Quote
bocabasser Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 folks who eat them call them strawberry daquiries. i used to catch 50-70 of them and give them to the ladies who work in my schools cafeteria. they are prety good, but i will stick with the saltwater variety when it comes to eating fish. Quote
