The Peacock bass and Largemouth bass have been biting well and should continue now that the cold fronts are gone. Our water temperatures were hovering in the 60’s for quite awhile. Now that we are headed into the high seventies the fishing will improve dramatically. This week we landed the 8 lb. bass in the Everglades by Mike Greico and on Saturday March 14th, Jeff Noah and his buddy Al landed 7 peacocks in a half-day trip up to 5 lbs. Each day should be better and better for at least three or four months until we get those heavy summer thunderstorms.

Each week the largemouth bass fishing has been improving in South Florida from Lake Okeechobee south into the Everglades swamps. We’ve taken out 2 different clients this week and boated close to 150 largemouth bass mostly small in size though. But on Tuesday March 9, 2009 Mike greico of New York City busted this big fish in the month weighing in at 8 lbs. Mike’s biggest bass ever in his 67 years on earth.

The South Florida Everglades continues to produce the best largemouth bass fishing in the entire country. On Tuesday Dec. 9, Capt. Victor and I were out trying to see what’s going on in the canals and we landed at least 70 bass in about 4 hours of fishing. Most fish were on the small side with a couple decent keepers up to 4 lbs. Water levels are dropping and the temperature of the water is cooler making the bass respond better than normal for this time of year. Usually we don’t experience this good of catching bass in the Everglades until mid to late March.

Yesterday we had Tim & Heather Gray and their buddy Scott Eynon out in South Florida for Peacock Bass near Miami. We landed 7 peacocks up to 4 lbs. which Heather caught holding up in this picture. Each fish was caught using small live shiners in the C-100 canal. The weather has been a little cool lately causing the fishing to slow down somewhat. The winter conditions change each week causing the water temperatures to rise and fall. Peacock Bass love warm to hot water which will provide the best action.

Fishing in South Florida for peacock bass has been good lately and should remain good until some cold fronts cool off the water temperature. Water levels will start to drop soon now that the rain has subsided. The water table has been high for months and usually slows down the fishing for both peacock bass and largemouth bass in the Everglades. Higher water actually helps Lake Okeechobee for bass as long as the wind lays down. Windy conditions will dirty up the lake making it difficult feeding and spawning conditions for the fish. Miami fishing for peacocks will remain good and only get better during the hotter months beginning in March.

Yesterday we were out largemouth bass fishing in the Holy Land wildlife refuge of the South Florida Everglades.

Miami peacock bass fishing over the last few weeks has been outstanding. Today Scott & Steven Eynon were out with us today and boated 16 peacock bass in about 6 hours of fishing. The water was quite stained with all the heavy rain we’ve experienced in South Florida but I didn’t seem to affect the peacock bass to much. Every fish except my one fish came on small live shiners. Hot weather is usually what these fish like but the temperatures are almost 90 degrees. If you catch anything this time of year boat them quickly, make sure the camera is ready and ghet the fish back in the water immediately to prevent killing them. E-mail us at floridafishing@bellsouth.net for more information on booking a trip to South Florida Fishing Adventures.

Peacock bass fishing this week has been red hot in Miami. South Florida is the only place other than Hawaii that has butterfly peacock bass fishing. We’ve been guiding here for 6 years for peacocks and fishing for largemouth in the Everglades and Lake Okeechobee for 20 years now! Yesterday we had Ed Cohn from Miramar, Florida out for his first time and he boated 12 peacock bass in half-day up to 4 1/4 lbs. All Ed’s fish were caught on live shiners.

Fishing Miami for peacock bass in July has been superb. Today Luis Rojas and I landed 22 peacocks up to 6 lbs. in just a half-day of fishing. Luis caught this nice butterfly peacock bass at 6 lbs. He was usually mostly shiners while I caught my fish on artificial lures. Despite the summer thunderstorms we’ve had a great month with multiple days with peacocks over 5 lbs. and two days with fish over 6 lbs. and a 7 1/4 lb. monster.

Peacock bass fishing in South Florida is great right now even with the heavy thunderstorms we’ve been getting. Paul Goubert and his father were out with me on Sunday July 13th and they landed 15 peacock bass in a half-day trip including this monster butterfly peacock that Paul caught at 11 years old. It surely almost broke the poor little guys wrist. This male peacock weighed 7 1/4 lbs. and is our new record landed peacock bass.
