Im not sure that is accurate for freshwater fish. You have to only keep legal sized fish though.
i dont think anybody would give me a problem about keeping fish and keeping them alive, especially freshwater fish. i will look into the permit just incase tho, thanks for the heads up. any actuall spots tho guys?? specific lakes or rivers?? what to catch them on and so on??? any info appreciated

i would not worry too much about taking the fish...not like you are going to impact the population...
some people are too sensative about matters like that...thank god they don't all work for fish and game. they would love their job too much...they would actually drive up and down canals inspecting fishmen
like losers just make sure you have a fishing lic. that's all...
the tamiami canal (the more west the better) and waters south of the canal are good locations...

I would really like to meet them if their in Miami. It seems everywhere i go down here theres always some canepole killa with a weighted treble hook snatching up snook and bass.
I hate to bash on Out FWC, but they don't do enough, specially in the keys for saltwater fishing. Youd need to live here to understand how badly some people overfish our waters...
As for the OP try either Miramar/Pines or Kendall for the peacock bass. Look at all the community lakes in residential neighborhoods and try them
