Pbass can now be caught as far north as Palm Beach County. Lake Ida and Osborne and their canals surrounding them have Pbass. Its not as far a drive as it would be to miami, but they are more abundant down there.

Dade county is where they were initially stocked in the canals and lakes. Around the Miami airport as well. Naples is too far north, and orlando is definitely out of the question. You have about a 2 hr. drive south of orlando, but if your going there, not a bad idea to take the ride.
