00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: This is your daily Fishing Report podcast for Florida Keys

2
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:07,120
Miami and here's what is bending our rods today for

3
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:10,560
January second. In the Florida Keys, the fishing conditions are

4
00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:14,560
looking promising, especially given the current tidal and weather patterns.

5
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:19,079
Tides and weather. As of today, the tides in the

6
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,760
Florida Keys are relatively stable, with high tides expected around

7
00:00:22,839 --> 00:00:26,960
mid morning and late evening. For example, in the Islamorada area,

8
00:00:27,239 --> 00:00:29,559
you can expect a high tide around eight twenty five

9
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:33,039
am and another at eight twenty two pm, with low

10
00:00:33,079 --> 00:00:36,479
tides at two thirty pm and one fifty six am.

11
00:00:36,679 --> 00:00:39,439
The weather is expected to be calm and warm, which

12
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:42,799
is ideal for tarpainfishing. However, it's always a good idea

13
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:45,280
to check the latest forecast as winds can pick up,

14
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:51,159
especially in the spring months. Sunrise and sunset Sunrise today

15
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,280
is at around seven o seven am and sunset will

16
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:57,640
be at approximately five forty pm. These times are crucial

17
00:00:57,679 --> 00:01:01,399
for planning your fishing trips, especially for evening trips which

18
00:01:01,439 --> 00:01:06,519
can be less crowded and often very productive fish activity.

19
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,640
Tarpainfishing is excellent this time of year in the Florida

20
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:14,719
Keys despite the occasional cold fronts, the tarpin are active

21
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:20,040
and plentiful. Yesterday, many anglers reported catching multiple tarpain, especially

22
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:22,280
around the bridges and in the back country when the

23
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:27,159
winds were light. Types and amounts of fish besides tarpan,

24
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:31,840
other species like Spanish mackerel, ladyfish, and even sharks were

25
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,239
caught in good numbers. The mullet bait is plentiful and

26
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,879
tarpan are keying in on them, making mullet a top

27
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,560
choice for bait. Best lures and bait for tarpin. Live

28
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:45,439
mullet is highly recommended if you're targeting other species like

29
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:49,200
Spanish mackerel or ladyfish, using jigs or spoons can be

30
00:01:49,319 --> 00:01:53,200
very effective for those looking to fly fish. The backcountry

31
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,920
areas are starting to become more accessible as the winds

32
00:01:55,959 --> 00:02:01,480
die down hotspots. Some of the best spots to fish

33
00:02:01,519 --> 00:02:04,879
include the bridges, particularly in the early morning and late

34
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:08,439
evening when the tarpin are most active. The back country

35
00:02:08,479 --> 00:02:12,080
areas are also worth exploring, especially on full day trips

36
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,599
when the winds are light. Areas around Islamorada and Key

37
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,759
Largo are known for their rich fishing grounds and should

38
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:22,479
not be missed. Overall, it's a great time to be

39
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,199
out on the water in the Florida Keys with plenty

40
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:29,240
of fish to target in favorable conditions. Just remember to

41
00:02:29,319 --> 00:02:32,159
check with your captain for the best times and locations

42
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:36,280
based on the current conditions. And that is it for today.
