Visual predators of Malaysia's mining lakes
Introduced to Malaysian waters, the Peacock Bass (PB) has thrived in abandoned mining lakes across Perak and Selangor. Highly visual predators, they are targeted with light tackle using fast-moving surface lures.
Year-round. Highly active during bright sunny mornings.
Always check the local tide and moon phase before your session — Peacock Bass feeding patterns align closely with tidal flow and barometric pressure changes.
