However, while the canals of south Florida do harbor good concentrations of peacock bass, the majority of anglers desire to catch the much larger fish native to South American rivers and lakes.
Peacock bass are tropical fish and require warm waters to flourish.
The exact destination one should fish depends on your preferences. We've selected the finest fisheries to offer to our clients, forgoing those lodges and camps whose fisheries have declined over the years despite how much advertising space they may obtain in fishing publications. Our staff is ready to customize a peacock bass trip to suit your particular desires and travel budget. The dry season is the only time to fish for peacock bass in South America. We try to avoid the high water situations for our clients, however despite our best efforts to gauge when to send anglers to South America, occasionally dry season deluges raise the river systems making for very slow fishing.
