I've been trying to catch a baby largemouth for the past couple months. I've been hitting up the city park lakes around here in the South Bay of Los Angeles. That's the only lakes local in this coastal area of Los Angeles. I finally caught one today. It's about 2" larger then the peacocks and looks a little malnourished. It still won't eat though as he's still a little stressed in his new tropical environment. I just hope it doesn't eat the peacocks. That would totally suck.

It's been done before. I have done it, but it did not end well for the largemouth as they were out-competed by the peacock bass which are much faster and more aggressive feeders than largemouth.
