www.nextworldexotics.com/photo.htm to see some of the monster reds... Usually when im in Daytona for the show, i just fish Sunglow pier and we usually get a bunch of slot Reds and nice Black Drum. I will say Matazas inlet has some killer Red fishing! Havent been to the lagoon yet but i do want to bring the Kayaks up there sometime this year... Any interest?
Damn Jon looks like I need to move down to FL for some real fishing. One of these days when I take my son to Disney World we're going to have to visit you so you can take us fishing!! I didn't even know you could catch peacock bass there and those monster snake heads.

Re: Price difference in morphs at shows vs. online breeder purchase?
Now now guys....thank you for all of your opinions, I just wanted to see what they were. For me personally, I think buying from someone online os always more of a risk (IMO) unless you KNOW the breeder. I have seen some good deals online, and plus if you are looking for a "certain something" and you go to a show, you are limited to what is there, and may not find it. Where as if you had access online to a plethora of breeders, you may just find it. However, yes, people have been burnt by online purchases and recieved a snake with mites or some otherwise not before known ailment. If you go to a show, you get to see the animal, and inspect it for yourself. Not to mention, you see it's weight,pattern, and proportions, whereas a picture does not tell you this. Another thing I've noticed is that of course any snake you get from a show is stressed, but I've actually had snakes eat whatever I've offered them the night they came home from the show. So, with that in mind, I know that this snake will still have a good feeding response "under pressure".
