Caught my first PB today than caught 3 more all within 40 minutes . All more or less same size .

There were some huge ones but didnt even cast near them was suprised how much they fight and my rod is to small next time will use bigger one didnt want it snapped.

Thanks . I wish I had a huge tank or huge pond for a pair the colors are real nice .

I guess it was just a matter of going in area they are in and going during day . I figured out few weeks ago I was waisting my time fishing at night they dont strike than .
I wont bother them now as think they are spawning but in few months will fish again.

flagfish will be my next catch with net in Everglades .
 
Great catch looks a lot like the mono I have.

I wish I had my own big pond I would stock it with them they are real pretty fish.
They are now guarding eggs in my area so wont fish in PB areas till eggs hatch .
I read as babies very delicate suprised how they love water so warm that its warm to step in

I am new to fishing as didnt truly fish much till moved here but overall lb per lb they are weak fighters . Other types of bass at smaller size fight harder and Jag cichlid 1/3 size blows them away .

if you catch big large/small mouth bass than you have had more of a fight than peacock bass unless its a monster peacock but as a whole overrated fighting fish but seem very aggressive and attack other fish that dare swim near them.
 
great catch! i went to snapper creek and caught a few but they were all nesting so i felt bad and sorta left them alone. they nested there the entire summer.
