That Oscar was gnarly looking. Looked slimy lol! Surprised John unhooked him! Remember John and that Fluke? Great video dude. You are making winter a little easier for us all.
Canal hopping in the Everglades...way better than 4 degrees when I woke up. Nice Oscar, bowfin, and sunfish. I believe down down South they're called Bream pronounced brim? Either way love it brother
Sooooo jealous especially with very light snow, snow fog and 14 degrees here north of Denver this morning! 🥶 The high Sunday is 7 and low -6.....can not wait to get back to GOD's country in the deep south! Thank you again and again John for bringing joy and warmth to all of us locked down in the cold!
Love these videos, this is basically my backyard! Find some big spill ways and catch little fish and use them as bait EDIT: at 4:14, be careful of giving them to people. You’re only allowed to posses 2 and only one can be greater than 17 inches!
There you go , having too much fun again . I really enjoy the under water camera shots . I know you have to go where they are but Mama always said , ¨"Don´t play on the highway ¨ !
Our high temp this weekend is going to be 9 degrees, yep that's the high temp !! You my friend are blessed to fish in Tshirt weather this time of year, Lake Michigan has frozen over on the shore for as far as the eye can see. My 25 year old daughter and I are sitting here watching and so jealous ! Getting our gear read but it will be another couple of months before we get out.
Fun size peacock bass... anything like fun size m&M's?. Probably not but any fish you get to unhook is fun size. Brother you are making me miss Fl for sure. Glad you are having fun stay safe. Thanks for sharing John. God bless brother.
Wish I were with you. Looks like the weather is nice, too bad for me. If you were in Ky. you could use your canoe to travel up the road, freezing rain, and a lot. The fishing looks great. Love seeing the different types of fish. Safe trip back up here
John's in Florida and there's fish everywhere 😁. Then when he gets back home to the cold East Tennessee waters with lethargic fish 😫 Lol. Our weather here in NW AL has been like a roller coaster. 70 today and 43 tomorrow.
Those were south Florida bluegills. Look different than up in SE Tenessee. I used to catch southern chain pickerel around the bridges west of 27 and I-75 outside of Ft. Lauderdale towards Naples. That's another species to try and mix in.
When I was fifteen years old I took a job at a tropical fresh water fish farm east of Deerfield Beach FL at 1.25$ per hour. It was called Panagra fish farm and the farmer was a kind man called Rudy. He had hundreds of pools with different types of exotics from south America and Africa and the pool that impressed me most was the breeder pool for the red Oscar. He told me how much he had invested to buy and import ten of them and I still have trouble believing it. He also brought in the first batch of the Florida walking cat fish that at first were all albino and excaped like the Oscars did eventually. Good memories!
No ice video! I love it when ya fish next to someone fishin the bottom, and just letting it sit! People don't get it... ya gotta keep yer bait movin...
After watching the last video and this one, you made me plan a trip to go fish in Florida! I live in Eastern NC so it's a long drive but probably worth it!
North Florida is basically identical to Eastern NC, so you won’t notice a difference until you get down the peninsula some. South Florida is a whole different world
Andro, I live at the beach in NC...take your time and enjoy if u have the time. I hit the keys and surrounding areas a few times a year and I've found the best way to make the trip is to drive to cocoa Beach/Sébastien inlet area(8hrs from my house), stay there at that beautiful campground on the water and fish a day or two as u won't regret it. Then make the remaining drive. On the way back hit one of the beautiful Springs like Juniper, Blue Hole etc and camp over night. The springs are 72 degrees year round. Then head back to NC and plan your next trip or move! Lol. Good stuff. Enjoy!
I've caught some nice fish on cut..Blu Gil..Oscar's n snake head as bait..u gotta give fish the same bait.they eat >>where they live n ur always gonna have a Productive Day
I love Oscar fish, I think they will turn to their true colors when they are taken care of in an aquarium. They grow as big as their environment will let them. I had one that grew to the size of the palm of a mans hand. He was blue/purple/black coloration and got so big we fed him shrimp and grubs. He lived for 6 years up until the “ick” got him. He was to big to flush so we gave him a proper burial.
Fun area. Made this trip a year or two ago and had a blast. On another note, I hate when random people ask for your fish. Get your own; I’m releasing mine.
Yah idk why they even wanted peacock that small, I live here in Florida and lots of people ask me if they can keep the bass I catch but I always throw them back
I only went fishing for Peacocks once and I didn't catch any but I saw one and I count that as a victory lol! I did catch a couple of weird catfish though... I think I wandered into the salt because they were kinda strange. Sadly, when my parents lived in Florida, I never knew this existed. Now instead of yearly visits to see my parents, I get occasional(few and far between) trips to see other relatives with little time for fishing.
Have you forsaken the fly rod? I can't think of a more fun way to catch pan fish. Here's an idea for you. Using floating fly line, tie a popper at the end of the leader. To the bend in the popper hook, attach an 18-24" monofilament line and tie a small sinking nymph fly to the end of it. You''ll be covering both top water and subsurface with the same cast. Frequently, you'll catch two pan fish simultaneously. After watching you catch fish on the hellgrammite, I'm thinking of trying the hellgrammite with a fly rod using sinking fly line. I'll probably rely on the weight of the hook alone. Even small bass will present one heck of a fight on a fly rod.
Ur not testing that phishfun reel on some snook n big bass ??? Sicklids are bait ! Lol go towards napels , Collier Semenole SP. ! 41 ditches !!!!!!!! Reel hard core fishin dude's fish there !!!! Love it ! 😎
It's neat to see you traveling around fishing different areas enjoyed itif you ever want to kick some huge blue cats think about fishing the lower James River but you need a boat we catch a lot of fish in the 30 to 50 lb range and occasionally some in the 60-80 lb range
Nothing better than Fishing in the swamp. Hey man you ever wanna hit up the yadkin River / high rock lake NC holla! Have a few videos on my channel of the lake. Love the channel congratulations on killin it on RUclips
Now you’re in my junior high, high school and college fishing spots. I’d rather catch a snook on a fly rod than any other type of fishing. The small canals are fun too. You never know what you’re gonna catch. (Watch out for alligators and a type of snake we called- “cottonmouth-rattle-gator”)
I am "Hoping: to head back down to Florida in April As I am building 2 new Warm water fish tanks So I plan on stocking the tanks with fish I catch on a trip to see family My warm water fish tank I had almost all of the fish eaten but a snapping turtle So I plan on keeping it in one tank and other fish in the 2 new tanks Glad to see you just enjoying yourself and giving away fish As I am sure keeping fish for yourself on your trips would hard to do
7:54 is a bluegill too lol the Everglades has 5 species of sunfish in the lepomis genus. Bluegills, redears, spotted, dollar, and warmouths are all found in the Everglades. Bluegills are the most common though.
@@vseabass9026 yeah they are. There’s not much we can do about it though. If it were ten years ago he’d probably be catching more largemouth than peacocks right now.
@@CreekFishingAdventures I didn't catch any peacock this trip but I found a spot where I was back to back on the tilapia, Mayan, and Oscars. That had to be my best fishing experience ever. Thanks for your vids. They definitely put me on to the glades.

Living a dream and having fun.
I used to have a big ole oscar in my fish tank it is crazy to watch you catch them on a pole
Good timing. It's too cold to fish up here.
Makes me happy you are having a bla in Florida.
This cold weather needs to get out of here! I got to go fishing now!
Fun size peacock bass... anything like fun size m&M's?. Probably not but any fish you get to unhook is fun size. Brother you are making me miss Fl for sure. Glad you are having fun stay safe. Thanks for sharing John. God bless brother.
Awesome video at least you're down here in Florida instead up in Kentucky and Tennessee you are probably getting snow and ice up home
The bluegill you were catching looked like copper nose bluegill

Great underwater video. It’s like you’re in a huge aquarium or scuba diving.
Fish and fun! GOD BLESS!!!
Wow awesome video. The under water footage was amazing.. 🤙😎
Great video love Florida for fishing.
I’d like to see you go on a creek fishing adventure in another country after the Rona is over.
oh yeah i hope to do lots of them if i keep growing my channel and can aford to do stuff like that
Looks like I need to make my way down to the canals in the Everglades!
Super cool video. Well done!
-D
You should!
The bowfin. Left over from the dinosaurs.
Looks beautiful down there! Cool shots man
No ice video! I love it when ya fish next to someone fishin the bottom, and just letting it sit! People don't get it... ya gotta keep yer bait movin...
Hit some of the canals further southwest and get some snook and baby tarpon. Snook stack up under bridges and have at least 20lb mono for your leader

Great video John raised Oscars in 100 gallon tanks very aggressive fish
Hey bud, there's nothing wrong with smashing down the barbs on your hooks...especially when you're catching and releasing lots of little fish.
I'm jealous. Here in Oklahoma we're about to get like 15-20 inches of snow with high temperatures at like 4 degrees and lows at like -10.
Fun area. Made this trip a year or two ago and had a blast. On another note, I hate when random people ask for your fish. Get your own; I’m releasing mine.
Yah idk why they even wanted peacock that small, I live here in Florida and lots of people ask me if they can keep the bass I catch but I always throw them back
Not a fish eater.. but why not give away. I think it's a win win? Different strokes for diff.
@@gregodena.a3577 Because I enjoy catching and releasing. And the guys who ask for my fish are usually netting fish without adhering to regulations.
Those Peacock Bass are awesome dude!
Awesome footage....God bless you 🔥
Those Florida fish look like they fight extra hard.
Peacocks fight 100 times harder than large and small mouth do. They’ve got incredible strength
I only went fishing for Peacocks once and I didn't catch any but I saw one and I count that as a victory lol! I did catch a couple of weird catfish though...

Great videos! You got a new subscriber
First sunfish you caught was a Green Ear Sunfish. The Bluegills were darker due to tannins in the water.

Hey john, if your ever in the greeneville tn area with your kayak id love to take ya bass fishing.
@6:03 and @11:28 is that a blue tilapia? Its crazy how many cichlid species are in Florida but sad that people released them
I am "Hoping: to head back down to Florida in April
As I am building 2 new Warm water fish tanks
So I plan on stocking the tanks with fish I catch on a trip to see family
My warm water fish tank I had almost all of the fish eaten but a snapping turtle
So I plan on keeping it in one tank and other fish in the 2 new tanks
Glad to see you just enjoying yourself and giving away fish
As I am sure keeping fish for yourself on your trips would hard to do
If you get to go to st Augustine Florida! Try around the flagler college
What road where you fishing off? lake worth Fl native here. Hit the canals on 441 they are loaded with crazy fish.
Wpb..native.....what canals on 441??
One thing is for sure -- when you go fishing in Florida you can just bet that you won't come home empty handed .
But he trows every single one back in the water... soooo i wont be so sure of that
haha lots of fun down here... Catch you later.
Is that water freshwater or brackish?
freshwater
I wish I could have been there with ya.
6:03 is a bluegill. Coppernose subspecies.
6:43 is a bluegill as well.
7:05 is a bluegill as well lol

Yesterday I fished the same small area before that one racked up on some Oscars they were hitting hard
There are all types of bluegills with different coloration here in Florida
What spot is this ? I’m planning to go florida this year ! Need some help figuring out where to fish
Watch out for gators! Made that mistake once!!!! Lol
I'd only ask which highway you're on 😄
You know they do have a limit on Peacock Bass I believe it’s two per person per day only one over 17 inches
Why would there be a limit on invasive species?
Call the law then karen
@@thatoldcomicsmell56 peacock bass are not invasive
@@vseabass9026 yeah they are. There’s not much we can do about it though. If it were ten years ago he’d probably be catching more largemouth than peacocks right now.
@@crazyfish9523 peacocks were released by the Florida Wildlife Commission in 1984
You know that's a ticket or a court for giving fish to somebody!!!!
I’ve fished down that same road
Are you allowed to release nonnatives after you catch them?
I caught the trophy size this week with a perfect red ⭕️
I have the feeling that, 10 years ago, those would have all been largemouth...
they put peacock bass in back in the 80's
So many fish. I think are fish are in quarantine.
Yeah the little fish was blue Gill
The tannin in the water changes the colors of fish
Omg. Lov ittt

We’re those people keeping the peacock bass?
