A New Adventure in Fishing – Peacock Bass Fishing
from:This fish is beautiful. This is the first observation that anyone would have once they set their eyes on this species of bass. This species of bass is very much unlike its American cousin who is ugly by any standard. This fish has a greenish blue coloring with tinges of gold and orange and a very appealing body and head shape. This fish actually belongs to the cichlids fish family and not bass family but because of its resemblance to the bass, it bears its name.
Peacock Bass Fishing – Similar yet Different
The peacock bass are as voracious as their namesake, and may be more. They hunt in a similar manner. For example, they stalk and suddenly pounce on the unsuspecting victim killing it and almost swallowing it in its greed. The peacock bass always have an insatiable appetite. They are also extremely aggressive. These fish, many times smaller than the largemouth bass, are known to break rods, tear lines and tackles which would in normal circumstance be more then sufficient to handle the strongest of largemouth. This is why peacock bass fishing can be pretty exciting as well as unpredictable.
Obviously Different Species
A peculiarity that can be seen in the peacock bass is that the female only grows to a large size while the male stays small throughout its life. With largemouth bass, both the male and female can grow large. Its name “peacock bass” comes not as much from its multicolored body, but from a large black eye type of mark on its body which is very similar to the peacock feathers’ decoration.
