Well, with the increase in water levels the Everglades Largemouth Fishing has drop off big time. But on the other hand it hasn't stopped the Peacock Bass from biting at all. On todays trip we caught 16 Peacock 2 largemouth 2 snook and had a tarpon strike.Several other fish were spotted but were hard to catch with the current running the way it was. We started out with shiners with split shots down deep, that's where we found the bigger fish, with in two mins. the first peacock was in the boat as several fallowed.One of the Alabama boys picked up a rod with a count down Rapala and statred working it in the running water catching peacock largemouth and a snook, the other stucked to the shiners but this time adding more weight to hold the shiner down for better results.As many other costomers in the past have remarked, they are amazed by the power and fight this 3 lb. fish has. A Peacock fishing trip is truly an adventure worth experiencing if your coming to South Florida this summer or just want to get away for a few days of fishing.Look for The Hawghunter on The Outdoor Channel, Fishing with Bob Dillow this week and see what your missing.
