Peacocks in Titusville? Wow, that's very far North for their range. Jerry,
do you have a peacock fishery up there you've been holding out on? ;>

I wonder if somebody transplanted them. They're well established down here
in Broward & Miami-Dade & they have some populations in Palm Beach. But
beyond that they haven't established permanently. Based on some fishing
forum photos many appear to have been given residence in home aquariums.
Also people try to stock ponds with them. Here's hoping the ones you saw
survive the winter!

Ken,

I told Alllllllan that I was amazed that he saw Peacocks up here.  Although
the waterways at the Cape are supposed to loaded with fish reserved for the
Brass.  I do know there is a resident population of huge redfish.

See you at the conclave on Saturday.
