I have been planning to do a Peacock Bass fishing trip for some time now and it finally happened! A lot of research was involved in planning this trip and ensuring we found the fish we were targeting. Most videos I came across on YouTube did not disclose their exact location, so it was no guarantee we'd even be in the right body of water. We loaded up the boat and headed to Naples hoping to find THE SPOT. The first place we found was the exact same spot that I had seen in videos days before our trip, so I knew they were at least here! It was incredible to see how natural everything was down here, from the lime rock shore to the thick vegetation under water. The waterways here just seemed untouched and lively. We used a ton of artificial lures and had no luck. Fortunately we brought out a couple dozen shiners which seemed to be the only thing the fish were interested in. The bite was definitely off for most of the day, to the point where the fish wouldn't even touch a live shiner. We were able to land 4 Peacocks with my PB being 3.95 lbs. We were really hoping to hook into some snakeheads on this trip but didn't have any luck. We will be planning a trip further south into the Everglades to target Peacocks and Snakeheads. Both species of fish are brand new to me and I can't wait to get back down there. Thanks for watching!
