Isn't a "Peacock Bass" a brackish or sal****er fish? It's a question,
cause I truly am unsure, but I thought it was more a salt water
species.... I've never fished for them, but I've seen them on TV, and
they do indeed look to be fun!


Nope, they're strictly a freshwater fish. The Amazon and the Rio Negro are
freshwater rivers, and that's where the peacocks thrive. There is also a
good population in the freshwater canals that cut through Miami Florida.
I've caught peacocks down there and they do fight hard.
