Fish for Peacock Bass South America

Peacock bass fishing, or fishing for the butterfly peacock or speckled peacock, is exciting freshwater fishing. These bass are natives of the Amazon River of South America and can also be found in the waters of Colombia, Venezuela, the Dominican Republic, Malaysia, Panama, Singapore and warmer locations in the USA. 

The sport of peacock bass fishing is rapidly spreading after this bass was first introduced into the freshwaters of Florida in 1984 by fish and game officials to aid in the eradication of certain types of undesired fish. Due to the warm water conditions in particular areas of Florida these fish are flourishing.  Being a tropical fish, the peacock bass, cannot tolerate lower water temperatures.

This species of bass thrive in warmer water which has allowed peacock bass fishing to become an extremely
popular freshwater game fish in Florida.  They have great fighting qualities and are a good eating fish as well.

Scheduling a fishing trip with one of the many guides in Florida is affordable
and relatively easy.  The serious peacock bass fisherman should consider planning a trip of a lifetime to the Amazon River or to the lakes and rivers of Venezuela.  This is the ultimate in peacock bass fishing.  Imagine fishing with the sounds of the jungle in the background and parrots and monkeys greeting you at every turn.

Flies, artificial or live bait can all be used to attrack the peacock bass.  Some believe the most accurate method is to use live bait and fish during the daytime.   A fly rod and an extremely sharp hook able to hook this elusive fish on the first hit and then enjoy the fight.  A locally trained guide should have most of what is necessary for a memorable peacock bass fishing trip.  

After a successful peacock bass fishing trip, consider a fiberglass replica of your trophy sized bass.  They can be made with such precision that they are better than and last longer than skin mounts.  An exact measurement with detailed photograph will provide the taxidermist with he needs to create a replica for you take home.

To ensure a memorable and productive peacock bass fly fishing trip contact one of the many travel agencies specializing in international fishing vacations.  There are many fishing sites online with information and testimonials. The thrill of hooking up to the gladiator of sport fishing, the peacock bass, will provide memories to last a lifetime.
