Fishing with Jake Peacock Bass 

Crew were straight forward and responded quickly. They meet you at the bait shop where you buy your minnows. they recommend us get 5 dozen which seems like a lot but we used them. Fishing takes place in neighborhood ponds between houses and subdivisions. We averaged about 5 fish per person per pond. Everywhere we went we caught fish. Mostly Peacock, (which averaged 1-2 pounds with the largest pushing 4lbs) but a few of everything from snake heads to gar. The iguana hunts were fantastic! I cant tell you how many we took each day, we lost count but it had to be 20-30 each.

My 13 year old son and I had a tremendous bank fishing adventure with Jake. i auppose the headlibe is that we caught 20+ fish between us, mostly peacock bass. My son landed a beutiful 3.5 pounder. I caught the “Fishing with Jake” grand slam of Peacock, Large Mouth, Snakehead, Cichlid. From a pure catchijg rate, it was a highly productive 4 hour adventure. It was great. But, for me, the true highlight of the day was how much my son learned. He has gotten interested in fishing throigh his friends. But he lacked experience and wanted to improve his basic fishing fundamentals: casting, hook setting, etc. Jake is a great teacher. Patient. Encouraging. Effective. And my son emerged from the excursion with not only some nice photos but with skills he can take with him for his own bank fishing adventures in the future.

Very nice afternoon trip for the four of us. Owner picked us up at the bait shop in his truck. You purchase your own shiners for bait, guide provides a cooler with aeration for the minnows. Tackle was hooks, and spinning rods provided for you by the guide. Drove us to several spots and shore fished, free-lining shiners. Caught 30+ in 4 hour trip, I’d guess. Mix of Peacock Bass, Largemouth, and a few Mayan Cichlids. Guide was helpful and patient with those not as experienced. Would recommend for most people. Easy, low-stress outing to get outside on vacation, and catch some fish.

My son and I had an AMAZING time fishing with Fishing with Jake. Ron could not have been more friendly and generous with his guidance and expertise in these beautiful fishing spots in Ft Lauderdale. We couldn’t leave without claiming a couple t shirts to commemorate the successful trip. Between the two of us we caught over a dozen fish, the majority being Peacock Bass. Can’t recommend these folks enough. Thanks again!!!

my 13yr old wanted to land a Peacock Bass for a few years now. We finally decided to hire a guide and show us the ropes and help us land a few fish. From the start the boys (ages 7,13) recieved so much attention and we all ended up catching Peacocks. Here we are a day later and they are both still talking about it!! would recommend these guys 100%!!
