Peacock Bass

[FinsnFur]

Never heard of such a thing till now.

Buck McNealy is on the Outdoorsman this morning and he's down in Brazil fishing for Peacock Bass. Really cool looking fish. Apparently they get up to 3 feet long

Kinda looks like our smaller Perch .

Yeah, they do look like a giant Perch. Some of the ones they were catching didnt have any stripes. The stripes were replaced by a single dot like the one on the tail in that pic. Which made a single row of dots along the fishes lateral line.

They were cool, and weird looking at the same time.

I've heard of them, never really seen one, pretty damn fish.  Wonder what they are like on the line, probably puts up a nice fight.

I fished for them on the drive down from Miami to the Keys.  Never caught one, but had some "hot" tips on where to go.  I fish for a lot of things I never catch.
Oh yeah, no prostitutes, either.
