You did alright for Loxahatchee, right down the road from me. We've had two cold snaps since then with some serious kills of the introduced fish but they always make it through. For peacocks, snakeheads and knife fish you will do better east of the Lox spillways or south. For the big peas I head down to Brazil and Colombia but our little guys on light tackle fill in the gaps between trips.
You are living the life John. That was some wonderful scenery you shared with us viewers.
Smart to give the gators some space. Beautiful weather and fish. 😊
I fish saltwater on the gulf and its absolutely killer year round, right now that the cold snap is over you can just tear snook up in the right spots
Used to catch Peacock Bass when I was in the army and stationed in Panama. They had cayman, related to alligators, around when would fish, always made it more interesting.
I lived about 3 miles from Loxahatchee for a few years. It’s amazing how close you can be to one of largest metropolitan areas of the country and see one of the wildest places in the country.
These south florida trips are some of my favorite videos. My 25 yr. Old son and I have talked about making this trek. Hopefully it will happen and we will catch fish, make videos and bring home memories.
I need to get back to South Florida. I was on the west side of Miami and had so much fun with the Peacocks, the Mayans, Jaguar Gapotes, and so many more. The canals were so full of fish. If anyone is thinking about getting their child or someone else into fishing, go to Miami. Go the canals around the Ikea and Bass Pro. By the culverts, drop a bread ball and let the new fisherperson fight some of those fish. They fight really hard and are easy to catch so the new person will be hooked (pun intended). LOL!!
The Miami Amazon baby! Biggest peacocks in the country in the canals of pinecrest and Palmetto Bay !! Look up monstermike on TH-cam so you see the monster peacocks
@@demcanes01 I watched him and several others when I learned I was going down to Miami for work. The biggest Peacock I caught was just over or under 5 pounds. I can't remember now because it was four years ago. Those things fight like no other. What a blast.
@@averageeverydayfishermansh4501 🔥🔥
Would much rather fish a nice lake and come out empty handed then these fucking canal sewers behind an Ikea, seriously
Sounds like fun! Just watch out for them Ol' 'Gators!
Ditch fishing in Florida! Sounds like a hit series to me lol! Thanks for sharing.
Diggin the sound of that. Be safe out there.
Those ditches can get a little bigger than what most folks would think right offhand, and the fish and wildlife are pretty abundant in general, of many different species of varying seriousness. 😁🎣
Yes Sir !!! Da Crib.. !!! Florida Fishing is the BEST..!!!! i FRESH and SALT..!!!
I lived 26 years in SW Florida. One thing I did miss was hills and mountains. I miss the warm winters.Florida is definitely flat. I truly enjoy your videos! Keep it reel 🎣🎣
South Florida ditch fishing is on my bucket list simply because of your videos!
Another great video John. Beautiful scenery. When you saw the gators, I was yelling "Run John Run", haha.
Awesome scenery thanks John, beautiful fish love those Peacock Bass no matter what size! Nice shot of big mamma, I counted 7 little fellas. Ever go back and want BIG bass, try Kissimmiee river or Orange Lake, Alachua county, south of Hawthourne, it won't let you down! God Bless you John, (Glen). WV.
Fished there many, many times as a kid to an adult.
Believe it or not, that far west from the ocean, Snook and Tarpon can be caught there, there are so many underground springs.
wow thats cool
Awesome video! I was born and raised in Florida and have had my fair share of gator run in's while fishing. Gotta be cautious around mamma gators!
Those are definitely Mayan Cichlids. We have a bunch in central and southern Florida.
That's some fun footage!! Pretty interesting to see how fish adapt to their environment i.e. turning so dark in color . Great production value on this one like the drone video etc. Appreciate all the work you put into bringing us along on your adventures!!!
It's amazing how many places you find to fish.
You have definitely improved by leaps and bounds on the use of your drone.
Amazing footage.
Thanks for taking us along on your Florida trip.
You made a great point there! His use of the Drone has improved greatly, as has his use of the close-up video equipment that he uses. Seems like he's been doing some upgrading from time to time, as compared to when he first started out. The video footage, I'd say, was pretty good at first, but at times, maybe a little shaky, or a little bit wobbly...but only a little bit. Now... it's like watching a Classic Fishing Show, the likes of Roland Martin, Bill Dance, and Jimmy Houston. Brother John has proven his worth, that's for sure! He's worked very hard...and it definitely shows! My only wish,vis that he keeps on raking in the Subscribers. He's worth it!
Man what a beautiful day! Im grateful you were able to go out and enjoy it safely. I'm living vicariously through you brother! It was -16 degrees up here in Mass last night. Cannot wait for the warm weather.
John I was in Port St Lucie from December 7-27. My first Florida winter fishing. I caught 80 plus bass. Awesome video buddy
Very cool!
Your Florida videos inspired me to plan a trip down there to visit some friends. Not quite South Florida, but looking forward to trying to catch some bass, snook, and redfish when it’s still winter up here. Thanks for the great content and the inspiration.
You are so blessed to be able to go fish these amazing places. Great video .
Those were some beautiful fish you caught the colors were so nice it was like a painting of a sunset. I mean what else would I expect from an amazing fisherman like you. 😊
Nothing beats a good topwater bite!
Woooooooooooo weeeeeeeeeeee that bass SMOKED the frog!!!
I'm going fishing tomorrow evening after I get off of work. Suppose to be 68 here in NW AL. Gonna hit up my favorite creek. I caught my first smallie of the year out if it last week along with some more rockbass. I would love to go fishing in south Florida. It looks amazing. 👊👍
Very cool video John. Thank you sir for sharing. God bless you and your whole family....🙏❤🙏❤🙏😊🙂😀
Hi John, those are very beautiful fish you are catching, I know you are having a great time, enjoy yourself.
My brother used to hunt over at the JW Corbett WMA. I always thought he was crazy. He ran into rattlesnakes, moccasins, and gators.
Great video. Florida is a really neat place to fish and explore.
Awesome video Mister John always love your videos keep up the good work
I lived in Hialeah for many years, unfortunately you were throwing the wrong lure in the first pond. Peacock Bass are high energy fish, usually a speed worm will work or a lipless crankbait. They are not fans of halfway moving lures like jerkbaits. Pond Hoping in Miami sure is an adventure!! careful approaching banks, not so much for Gators but more like for bad venomous Snakes!! they love to hang by the shore. Welcome to Miami!! Really enjoy your video.
man i have caught so many on jerkbaits before
@@CreekFishingAdventures I forgot to say they are SUPER Picky sometimes as what can be the right lure! 🙂I wish I could show you the 9lbs Peacock my Nephew caught in Lake Worth Fl. Where he lives.
These are my favorite videos by you. In fact they inspired me to take a trip to the Everglades last March and I had an absolute blast. I know you have a significant following that watches you kayak around and catch bass and various sunfish in your home state, but doesn't hold my attention like the cichlids in Florida. That's probably because I can catch bass and sunfish where I live and they just don't get me overly excited, cichlids on the other hand, are far more exotic, and not something I can just walk out my door and catch. I can't wait to see what your next trip to Florida will produce.
Awesome video! Love the FL trips.
Welcome back to our great State John! The fishing there is a blast. I live in coastal West Central Fla., but fish down that way as often as I can, usually to and from the Keys. It’s a totally different world down there, thru Big Cypress and the Glades. A lot of it still very much wild and raw. Keep looking around like you are, and around down the Alley there are countless ‘ponded’ areas in the roadside canals like you fished. Your gear and lures are dead on, I’d suggest adding a Texas rigged plastic worm weightless, and Beetle-spins in black, yellow and chartreuse in assorted sizes to the lineup. All proven over decades ( I’m an old guy ) 😁! Best of luck on your next trip!
Nice trip John and great background music.. made me feel like I was watching a documentary..
Headed to Islamorada in the morning as soon as I get off work. Can't freaking wait!
Those last couple of hits were probably from a gar. Gar and pike will both hit multiple times. Gar are also notoriously hard to hook. Super agressive hitting but they aren't always super accurate with their attacks, haha.
Dude great minds think alike I’ve been telling my boys how we really need to do a trip like this fishing and bird watching in South Fla.
good to see you traveling - new opps!
Great drone footage. What an abundance of fish that they have there and Gators and snakes and iguanas and birds tropical Paradise. I know it's a great place to visit, but I still prefer your Tennessee footage. That's just my kind of scenery and water.
haha you're over on the east coast John. You need to get back there and catch that SnakeHead John. Went right under that flat rock. Yep, weather has been wonky here lately. It's been cold for down here but still it's hard to beat. John, you'll have a great time any time your down here. Been watching you a while now. Always enjoy your vids.
Now that I have been bass fishing for a year, flordia is a bucket list place to fish! Seems to be fish in every puddle ha ha
Great video, Florida is crazy!
Seeing and getting close to the those Gators was very cool!
Love Florida
Great video
I live in Palm Beach county where Loxahatchee is. Let the frog sit until the waves from the cast are gone, then give the fish 1 more second before setting the hook. I am talking strictly frog fishing. You can do whatever, but that's how I get a much higher catch %. I know they released peacock bass in 2 lakes in Palm Beach county, they mainly released them in Broward and Dade county's. I think lake Osborne and another I can't think of right now. I have caught huge Peacock bass myself out of lake Osbourne. They're some funky looking fish. You can camp at lake Osbourne and kayak, but you have to bring your own kayak, there are no rentals. I tent camp there in the winter, way too hot in the summer. At least I hate the heat, some don't care.
The canals right off of Military produce Snakehead and Peacock. But the cold put a lid on that. Got some decent Bass last week...Like I mention, live shiners produce better then artificial.. Perks in Boyton Beach for bait
Man I need to go there, that's a fisherman's paradise, except for the alligators, that one that babies was huge, to bad you couldn't ride a 4 wheeler in there or a golf cart, great drone footage as far as the eye could see nothing but marsh land beautiful, it does the mind good to see things like that! 🎣👍
The fishing is as awesome as advertised, and the gators just need to be respected and given whatever space they need to not feel threatened or crowded. Avoiding a mama with babies is among the important rules. Another key one is ‘all bets about coexisting harmoniously’ go out the window after the sun goes down. Wade fishing or anything closely to it are a very bad idea. Be in a real boat.
Cannot get used to seeing gators. Even when my brother and I fished the Big O.. 20 years ago Ocochobee ,gators in the canals and manatees on the main lake. Felt like fishing at the zoo but inside it
Cool video, very enjoyable!
I enjoy your videos. 👍😊
Love the videos keep up the work
That was cool you saw the baby alligators. Awesome video.
i never thought they would be that tiny
Dude my adrenaline was pumping. Those gators 🐊. The excitement fish and wildlife
Loved this video. It always feels like you are effortlessly taking us along!! But....the 🐊....NO THANKS!
when your down in florida the gators are chill unless you get to close and if they chase you run in a zig zag AND ALSO WATCH OUT REACHING IN GRASS THAT TALL SNAKES ARE CRAZY MAN
A very god one, my friend. I will be down there in Feb.
Love that drone footage and the music 🎶 👌 🙌
Awesome Fishing, fishing is about to discover! no matter if it is amazon or a creek in the neighborhood! Enjoyed every catch ( and release) Certainly different species that we have here in south america
Brave man stompin' around waters in Florida :) The closest I've come to gators was in Santee Cooper.
Awesome trip! I'm here in Glasgow lookin for arrowheads.
I love those fish prints behind you , could you show them to us next time.
Great video
Awesome video. That Gar was eating good.
Mowing noises nearby is good , it somewhat cancels the crack of a Magnun Airgun while taking out the nasty Iguanas .
It's all fun and games until you mess with a momma gator. 🐊
That peacock and snakehead look like bff's.
Awesome trip
You are a wholesome man
Swamp Fishing Adventures
I need to get to Florida and fish this kind of stuff someday. Might need more than an ultralight and 2lb test lol
Top water! Yeah baby!😂😎
Watch out for the eastern rattlesnake , you just put your hands next to the prime spot with out looking 🤔. PS I love fishing at places like that in the Dismal swamp areas of North Carolina , the water looks like dark Tea and the Chain pickerel is king
Very true! I actually cringed when he did that in the video! My first thought was ‘cotton-mouth hole’!
PLEASE don’t do that again John, those are serious snakes that will ruin your day for the next couple of weeks if not months. Please be aware and safe! 😉👍
@@raleighthomas3079 I was bit by a cotton mouth but it didn't get my skin because I was wearing a long sleeve shirt and I was trying to catch it ,, I'll never do that again 🤔
Yeah that was some CRAZY top water action….
I live just a couple of miles from the entrance of the park you went to. Walking around fishing is not great as people hit it every day, I have fished a couple of dozen times and the fish just dont bite, except the Mayan Cichlid . The ponds and canals throughout Boca, Parkland, and Coral Springs have much better bites and some huge fish. The lake in my backyard I have pulled in 10,11, and 12lb bass, huge snakehead, and about 6 other varieties. You did mention next time some people will take you out on a boat, you will catch some beasts.
In Boyton the ditch is where it's at..Go over Perks for some live shinners and crush the Peacocks...
Maybe do a second pole for the follow up throw to catch the missed ones:)))
I believe that dark sunfish was a dark phase warmouth.
Doesn't get any better
When ever I fish in south Florida I notice that the tropical fish go into deeper water and don’t feed nearly as aggressively during the winter. In the summer you basically get hit as soon as the lure hits the water.
We have a spring fed creek that runs into a river here that’s amazing fishing. Full of stumpys , red breast , warmouth and big bass ohh yea aggravating bait destroying mud fish lol.
Intrusive thoughts are telling me to throw a cast net over those iguanas 😂
That's awesome man you should of went and got a baby gator. I'm sure the mom wouldn't mind😂😂😂
In Florida, in the winter, try a 6" pumpkin seed lizzard fish it slow...Always worked for me!
A very good choice!
Count me out of Florida swamps, gators!!!!!
Check out "Fish Eatin Creek" close to Moore Haven.
Funny to see my home in someone else’s eyes or video.
Nice minnows bro
Yes they are
Nice!!
I love fishing over there . I live 10 minutes from there.
That's awesome
Nice place, was this the one in Boynton beach?
Great fishing. Are those invasive species good eating? If you hunt you should meet up the the Iguana Man and hunt some of those iguanas.
dude you should move to FL. the fishing there must be great.
Those big snakeheads like you saw at the bridge will smoke that frog.
You need to tighten that drag a bit on those ciclits 😂
Some of those smaller sunfish might've made good bait
My man, out there living the dream!
'm going to make this trip again and do this, instead of Mickey with the family.
What told you where to stop in a foreign area to your norm?
i just drove by the park and decided to check it out
Top water bait is best for those bass. I do pretty good with a black crawfish no wieght
maybe you need a lizard lure . It looks like the fish were hanging around waiting for on to fall
What canal you went to at the beginning of this video?
