Boatless Fishing Forum, Reports, Info

Will be down on a four day excursion for what will mostly be a saltwater trip...but I wouldn't mind dabbling in freshwater as well...I know the peacocks are further south (southern Broward into Dade counties)...but are there any other types of freshwater exoticsin the Juno/Jupiter area (snakeheads, gar, etc) that's I won't find here in my home state of MA? Will have a spinning rod and fly rod with me, although the fly rod will be overkill for most freshwater fish (only bringing my 9 wt with me since the priority is on the saltwater side of things)

May make a drive down to try for some peacocks, but is dependent on whether I get my fill on the saltwater front (more locally in Juno)

Lake Ida for knife fish and sunshine bass along with ciclids.

Thanks a lot

Not too many exotics here in Jupiter from what I've seen, thankfully. Most of the freshwater ponds and canals out west have mostly native fish (largemouths, bluegill, etc). Tilapia seems to be the most common exotic I've seen.

Like Fishnfool said, Lake Ida and Lake Osborne are your best bet for exotics in Palm Beach county.
