Florida Peacock Bass Fishing Part II - LOAD WARNING

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
That last pic is a monster !! the only lure that would work on that is money. =)

You could be right!

Makes you wonder who was casting the lures;)
 
Here's how u rig it. :ROFL:

Jed you should PM that to your pareng Redtailfool. If you check closely that Monster has redtail (Technically red micropants;) )

Unless the overflowing tank top is distorting your vision, it should be very clear it's a redtail.:ROFL:
 
This 15 inch fella fell for an X-rap lure in about 8 inch of water. The X-rap hooks are very easy to take off the fish. This guy has a very nice chance of surviving to eventually live in one of my breeding tanks.:)

This one could not survive the fight and the Summer heat. It's headed for the freezer for Friday's Fish Fry:)

fedex some fried pbass to me... :)

I caught this around 10 am, today. For me that's very early! It's about 16 inches and Male

Took it home due to all the blood it was losing. Currently in one of my PB ICU tanks. If it survives, I'll train it to swim to your place. Please PM your address ASAP. You may cook it anyway you wish.:ROFL:

I believed the previous catch was a Male. Had to go back to retrieve my gloves and fishing pliers. I noticed a bigger fish was defending the area where I caught the earlier catch. Hmm...could this be the male?

So I had to catch it and it is the female which happens to be bigger than the male. This one is 17 inch:D

It's pictured with my 4 inch x-rap lure which got it inside the gill cover and under its throat , too:(

Thankfully it's not of human origin:)

Also on my ride home I noticed two new targets, perfect size for food:)

Watch for four PB pics tomorrow! Some will be released:D
