Speaker 1: This is your daily Fishing Report podcast Florida Keys Miami
and here is what is bending our rods today. Hey there,
fellow anglers, this is artificial lure here and I'm excited
to share today's fishing report for the Florida Keys in
Miami area. First off, let's talk about the conditions today,
February seventh, twenty twenty five. We're looking at a pretty
pleasant day. The sunrise was at seven four am and
the sunset will be at six fifteen pm, giving us
a good amount of daylight to get out on the water.
The tide times for Content Keys content passage are as
follows Low tide at three nineteen am with point seven
four feet, high tide at nine fifty one am with
one point zero five feet, low tide at two oh
one pm with point six feet, and high tide at
eight eight pm with three point one one feet. The
weather has been calming down a bit after those last
cold fronts, which is great news for US fishermen. The
winds have died down, making it an ideal time to
hit both the offshore and inshore waters offshore fishing. Offshore fishing
is really heating up this time of year. The sailfish
bite is on daily as we approach their spawn time,
and February marks the beginning of one of our most
productive periods. Offshore kingfish, particularly the big smoker kingfish, are
providing excellent action both well offshore and occasionally nearer the reef.
The mackerel family, including serow and Spanish mackerel are abundant,
and black fin tuna are also active, offering some thrilling catches.
Wahou and mahai are still around, though the mahay action
can be a bit sporadic, but always a welcome bonus
for offshore fishing. I recommend using lures like spoons, jigs,
and live bait such as balihou or pilchards. These will
attract the larger pelagic species like sailfish, kingfish, and tuna.
Reef and wreck fishing. The reef and wreck areas are
also producing well. With the winds down, these spots are
more comfortable, especially for those concerned about rough seas. Amberjack
and kobia are active, and the snapper family, including mutton
snapper is still going strong. However, keep in mind that
the grouper season is closed until May and Monroe County,
so we'll have to wait a bit longer for those.
For reef and wreck fishing, use jigs, live bait, or
cut bait to attract the likes of amberjack, kobia, and snappers.
Near shore and back country. Nearshore and backcountry fishing are
excellent right now. The patch reefs located about halfway to
the Coral Reef, offer a mix of backcountry and reef
fishing in colmer waters. Here you can target a variety
of species using non technical techniques suitable for both novice
and experienced anglers. In the backcountry, the redfish action is
as good as it gets. In Key West. Kobia fishing
is also producing quality fish, and while snook are not
super active due to cooler water temps, there are days
when mild air temperatures and calmer winds bring them to life.
Schooling species like jacks, sea trout, pompano and more are
providing NonStop action. Predator fishing for giant barracuda and several
species of sharks is also on the rise, especially in
the Marquses. For backcountry fishing, use soft plastics, jigs, and
live bait like shrimp or mullet to catch redfish, kobia,
and snook hotspots If you're looking for some hotspots, I
highly recommend the Patch reefs for a comfortable and diverse
fishing experience. For those who prefer the backcountry, the Marquesses
and the waters around Key West are teeming with life
in summery. February is shaping up to be an excellent
month for fishing in the Florida, Keys and Miami area,
with stable water temperatures, calmer winds, and a wide variety
of active fish species. There's no better time to get
out on the water. So grab your gear, choose the
right lures in bait, and let's go fishing. Call Key
