I saw him first!

[Capt. BassinLou]

Caught a pretty peacock this morning working the banks. He came in at 3.6lbs. That's a decent size peacock.
Walking a hydrilla line, I noticed a break along the bank with sediment, a little shade. I said to myself, if there's going to be a decent size peacock, it's going to be on that spot. Sure enough, at the edge of the sand, the peacock was just sitting there. 2 casts later, got him!
