@@EngineeringHooksets when I lived in Panama I would use a small 3in. rebel with a small minnow on the back hook. I used a screw together 3 piece bamboo pole minus the top section. The center part was threaded 1/4-20 female and the speargun head screwed right into that canepole. That turned the pole into a gig so i could gaff the Peacocks as I caught them. Awesome fishing for a 10 year old.
Nice peacock bass man! Same thing happened to me while peacock fishing in Naples, a tarpon hit my shiner. My tackle was just too light and it broke off.
I didn't even know tarpon were in the canals. I probably would have ditched the 8lb leader and stayed tied on to braid if I knew it was possible to catch one. Thanks for watching!
Strong like smallies.. but way more aggressive.. and after an intense fight.. I've seen people keep em out of water for 2 minutes easy for pics and etc.. and when released they shake it off like it was nothing.. the colors are vary in location.. the ones in alligator alley are crazy dark.. and resemble smallmouth
@@EngineeringHooksets. Throwing shiners can make for a fun day. Screw that guy. Keep doing what you're doing. Oh and by the way. A wife that will fish with you is a rare and beautiful thing. What's the location?
Awesome content and Congrats on the marriage. Florida is looking beautiful as ever. Just awesome!!!!
Thank you so much!!

Awesome! Honeymoon fishing! Congrats again. Great peacocks. What was that fish in the beginning, lurking about? Now go get a tarpon!
Thanks dude! Grass carp
NICE work!! You've caught a Florida fish I haven't. Would've been cool if you hooked that Tarpon.
Tarpon are insane, one day.. Thanks for watching, man!
Those spots seemed pretty familiar🤔. Lol love the fight those guys put up!
Yeah your dad had the hookup, lol
Good job but make sure to use circle hooks next time so they don't swallow the hooks
Very cool! Great way to spend some time on your honeymoon. Congrats on the marriage!
Thanks, man!

What size hook and leader?
Not sure the hook size. I think we were using 8lb Fluorocarbon leader
Nice peacock outing - oh and why you whispering ?
Thanks James! We were trying to not scare off the fish
