That sucks.@crock1... there was also some bass with orange in there i guessthere were baby peacocks. also was snatching up sunfish an blue gill. Hopefully if i keep hitting that creek ill hit the jackpot.

Aren't you up in Polk County? If so, you ain't getting any peacocks up there. Tell me where your at up there and I'm sure I can find out where you can go catch some fish. My nephew works for FWC with the fish stocking/counting program and he knows where they are, cause if he didn't put them there he has probably shocked them up and counted them!

Could have been a warmouth I've caught a few and they have red eyes and a red orange belly they don't get real big and they have the head of a bass and body like a bream.

Interesting! Of course, bass coloration can be affected by diet and water quality. I'll ask my nephew if they're stocking any type of hybrids or if he's seen these same fish. I'll also ask if he knows any hot spots!
