Where do peacock bass live?

The only two places where peacock bass thrive are: Their native waters in the Amazon region of South America, where you will find the larger Speckled peacock bass and the butterfly peacock bass. In South Florida, where both the speckled and butterfly peacock bass were released as a means to control other exotic/invasive species. This experiment, managed by the authority of the Florida Fish and Wildlife commission, proved to be successful with the Butterfly peacock bass, which quickly adapted to the tropical environment of South Florida. The speckled peacock did not fare so well and eventually died out. Butterfly peacock bass are an excellent angling fish, hitting lures and shiners explosively and making line busting runs, which call for an exciting fishing experience. South Florida outfitters offer 1/2, full day and whole weekend fishing charters at a much more reasonable cost than going to South America to catch these awesome fish.
