    Default South Florida Panfishing


    Hi guys,

    New member here. I live in South Florida and enjoying multispecies fishing. Basically I'm happy with whatever bites. However, I have a strong preference to panfish. Love using little lures on ultralight with two pound test. Here's a video from this past weekend. I've got plenty more on my channel. Looking forward to my time here.

    Interesting video. I have tried small crankbaits for Sunfish but haven’t had much luck with them here. Mainly just catch small bass with them.

    Mayan cichlids. Cool video, enjoyed that. Reminds me of fishing our old farm pond.

    Mayan cichlids, native to Central America. I'm not a big fan mainly because they compete directly with the native bluegill and since they're bigger and more aggressive, they usually win. As I mentioned in this video, bluegills are pretty rare in ponds that have these guys as well.

    Here's the story of this lure. I bought it sometime around 2012 or 2013, I think, when I was still living in NJ. I used it once and didn't catch anything. It stayed in my tackle box unused ever since. Last weekend I figured I could give it one more chance and it paid off.

    Good catch and welcome. Do you eat those cichlids? Take them out of the small waters and fry them up, a win for native fish and fishermen.
