Speaker 1: This is your daily Fishing Report podcast for Florida Keys,

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:06,400
Miami and here is what is bending our rods Today,

3
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:10,240
October eleventh, is shaping up to be a fantastic day

4
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,279
for fishing in the Florida Keys and Miami. Here's what

5
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:15,279
you need to know to make the most of your outing.

6
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:22,280
The weather is looking favorable, with partly cloudy skies and

7
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:24,559
a gentle breeze out of the southeast at about ten

8
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:28,239
miles per hour. Water temperatures are still warm, but the

9
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,640
slight drop in air temperature is starting to stir up

10
00:00:30,679 --> 00:00:33,799
the fish. Tides today will be moderate, with a high

11
00:00:33,799 --> 00:00:36,399
tide at around nine thirty am and a low tide

12
00:00:36,399 --> 00:00:40,520
at three thirty pm. Sunrise and sunset. Sunrise is at

13
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:43,039
seven twenty four and sunset will be at six fifty

14
00:00:43,079 --> 00:00:48,359
three pm, giving you plenty of daylight to fish. Fish activity.

15
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:52,320
Yesterday saw a lot of activity, especially around the reefs

16
00:00:52,359 --> 00:00:55,560
and backcountry areas. The cooler mornings are starting to push

17
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,520
the snook closer to shore, where they are ambushing bait

18
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:03,320
near points and inlets. Kingfish are also active, particularly closer

19
00:01:03,359 --> 00:01:06,079
to shore and can be targeted with spoons or live

20
00:01:06,159 --> 00:01:12,359
bait types and amounts of fish caught. Anglers reported catching

21
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,439
a good number of snook, kingfish, and even some wahoo,

22
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,439
especially around the full moon phase, which is approaching on

23
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:22,000
the seventeenth. Mahai and tuna are still a bit deeper,

24
00:01:22,239 --> 00:01:25,319
requiring a venture of about twenty to twenty five miles out,

25
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,760
but the effort is worth it. Tah have best lures

26
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,319
and bait. For snook, live bait such as shrimp or

27
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,799
mullet is highly effective, especially when drifted along points with

28
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,359
some current. Kingfish are biting well on spoons and live bait.

29
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,319
For wahoo, big baits like speedos or large lures with

30
00:01:43,359 --> 00:01:47,159
a wire leader are recommended. Mahi and tuna are best

31
00:01:47,159 --> 00:01:49,959
targeted with lures that mimic their natural prey, such as

32
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:54,439
ballyhu or squid hotspots. One of the hot spots right

33
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,599
now is the patch reefs just south of Key West,

34
00:01:57,879 --> 00:02:01,120
where you can find a mix of snappers and even

35
00:02:01,159 --> 00:02:04,879
some larger predators. Another good spot is the back country

36
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,840
areas around the upper Keys, where the snook and kingfish

37
00:02:07,879 --> 00:02:11,159
are plentiful. Keep an eye on the weather, as tropical

38
00:02:11,199 --> 00:02:14,319
systems can still affect the area, but the fishing often

39
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:18,039
gets really good just before a storm hits. Enjoy your

40
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,479
day on the water, and that is it for today.
