Zach was our guide and he put us on fish and iguanas all afternoon. It was a unique experience that my son and I were glad we tried.

Had a great time. Jake got us on the fish and moved spots when things slowed down. All 4 of us caught multiple fish. We were very happy and will definitely book it again next year.

Ron was awesome! As soon as the bait was cast, a fish was caught! My son has recently developed a passion for fresh water fishing and we could never catch anything. Ron definitely knows where to go and gave great tips and advice on how to find fish and how to catch them! We caught around 20 fish in just a couple hours, including a 5 lb peacock bass and a huge snakehead! Unbelievable!...

Recent Fishing Reports

Early May 2026

Summer fishing is kicking off with a blast. The peacocks and largemouth are active and hungry. As the water temperatures continue to warm up and as we get more rain, the bite is only going to get better. We’re catching anywhere between 8-20+ fish during our 2hr trip and 20-30+ during our 4hr trips!

The early summer pattern has been producing some incredible action, especially early and late afternoon bites. Most of our fish have been around 2-4 pounds, with some bigger ones mixed in as well. Whether you’re an experienced angler looking to knock peacocks off your bucket list or just want a fun day catching some fish and learning about the area, now is one of the best times of the year to come out.

Mid March 2026

Mid February 2025

For peacock bass fishing in South Florida, this is the best time of the year to catch a trophy. The peacocks are already pairing up and we are seeing some beds starting to show up. This past weekend, each of our trips have averaged about 10 to 15 fish per person for a two hour trip. The average size has been over 3 pounds each, in other words, big fish. We don't have many slots open, but but as soon as possible, if you plan on coming to South Florida anytime in March.
