Although four distinct species of peacock bass, known as pavon in Venezuela, Colombia, Peru and Brazil, are from South America, at lease two or more of the species have made its way to North America (South Florida).
A common characteristic shared by all species of peacock bass is the black circular "eye spot" dramatically rimmed in gold on the base of the caudal fin. Since this spot closely resembles the one found on the tail plume of the land dwelling peacock fowl, and the profile of the fish resembles the North American black bass, the name peacock bass became the perfect
moniker. The butterfly pavon is one of the most colorful and more plentiful. Butterfly peacocks typically average two to four pounds. But as seen in the picture above they are getting much larger.
Here you will find locations and area directions to Miami area lakes.
