Peacock Bass are Fun!

Just wanted to say we had a blast on our vacation in Boca Raton, the peacock bass fishing was truly the highlight. We will be back next year for another round!

Great experience!

Stayed in Boca Raton with my family and was looking for something to do with all of them. The fishing worked perfectly for everyone, it was easy, professional, and affordable. Will do it next in town!
