Since this outing was primarily a peacock trip, I'm posting my report over here.

I arrived to the ramp at about 0645. Not a soul was around. Made my run as dawn was underway.
I had a good idea of the areas where the peas were going to be staging at so I tried several spots until I hit the mother load. :)

I basically stayed at one location catching one pea after another. Some were small, and several were nice.





I had great time. The peas were destroying an assortment of lures. Every time the bite died down, I would switch lures and the action would start right back up again. Lol!!





I had my fill of Peacocks and called the trip around noon. Was fortunate enough to boat 41 peas and only one bass. Smh. Lol!!



If we don't have a big freeze this upcoming year, the peacock population is going to be INSANE next year!

Thanks for reading.

Dang, son. Great job. That is a helluva lot of peas. Hopefully next time you have a client that wants to target peas they'll still be hanging around.

Sorry to hear about the vid problems.  That would have been fun to watch.  What were you catching them on?  Great job Lou!
