Catch of the Day

Behold! THE BUTTERFLY PEACOCK BASS!

The bottom one is a peacock bass too.  The middle one is a regular bass.  Just the behemoth fed us for dinner.




The daily limit for Peacock Bass is 2 per day, and of the two only one may exceed 17 inches in length.  They are not native to Florida, but were deliberately introduced to South Florida.  Rob has been wanting to catch one for a very long time!
