Malaysia is one the best places in Asia you can go to and target Peacock Bass! This fish can be found in wild habitat but also in the urban centers. To make the most of these possibilities, you need an experienced local guide service, such as Kuala Lumpur Urban Peacock Bass. Located only 40 minutes drive from the city center of Kuala Lumpur, you can easily get to this spot by public transport.
Captain Fahmi welcomes 2 guests aboard his 14’ custom boat, newly built in 2019. This simple boat has everything you need for a great day out. Since the captain is sponsored by several equipment brands, such as Abu Garcia and Damika, you can count on a variety of professional rods and reels.
Your main target of the day is Peacock Bass, which thrives in lakes, still water ponds, and reservoirs. You can go after them year round, as they are active regardless of the season. As a bycatch, you can also expect to land Snakehead. The captain prefers to release the fish unharmed but it’s allowed to keep some if you’re planning to eat them.
Peacock Bass trips are suitable for anglers of all skill levels. Whether you’re here to learn how to fish or simply want an unusual fishing experience, feel free to join. As mentioned, your fishing equipment is covered and license is not required. You only need to bring your snacks, drinks, and sun protection.
Wherever you go, don’t miss a chance to go fishing. Join Kuala Lumpur Urban Peacock Bass!

Fami and Zaim were friendly, knowledgeable and wonderful guides and we had an incredible morning fishing for our whole family, catching a bunch of Peacock Bass, but also seeing birds, otters, monitors and even snakehead swimming about! We highly recommend this fishing tour, and will be back to go again :) Thank you!

Captain Fahmi's fishing passion started when he was only 8 years old. At first, it was only a hobby, progressed to a part-time job, and soon became a full-time profession. Besides running the trips, he regularly participates in local tournaments. It always makes him happy to see his guests catch their first fish or their new record.
