00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,120
Speaker 1: This is your daily Fishing Report podcast for Florida Keys,

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:05,960
Miami and here is what is bending our rods today.

3
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,240
As of October ninth, twenty twenty four, the fishing scene

4
00:00:10,279 --> 00:00:14,039
in the Florida Keys and Miami is looking promising, especially

5
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:17,719
with the cooler temperatures starting to set in hashtashed weather

6
00:00:17,879 --> 00:00:21,280
and tides. This morning, you can expect a gentle breeze

7
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:23,719
out of the southeast at about ten miles per hour,

8
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:27,440
with clear skies and a high of around eighty two degrees.

9
00:00:27,679 --> 00:00:30,239
The tidal conditions are favorable, with a high tide at

10
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,920
nine thirty four am and a low tide at three

11
00:00:33,039 --> 00:00:37,240
seventeen PM. Sunrise was at seven twenty four am and

12
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:41,240
sunset will be at six fifty four. Fish activity yesterday

13
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,799
saw a good mix of fish activity across the Keys.

14
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:48,920
Anglers reported catching a variety of species, including Mahi mahi, snappers,

15
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:52,960
and kingfish. The Mahi mahi were particularly active, with several

16
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:56,079
boats reporting catches of ten to twenty fish per trip,

17
00:00:56,479 --> 00:00:59,799
mostly in the five to ten pound range. Snappers, both

18
00:00:59,799 --> 00:01:02,799
men angrove and yellowtail were also plentiful, especially around the

19
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:07,159
patch reefs just south of Key West. Best lures and

20
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:11,000
bait for mahi mahi, using brightly colored lures such as

21
00:01:11,079 --> 00:01:14,799
green and yellow jigs or spoons proved effective. Trolling with

22
00:01:14,879 --> 00:01:19,359
ballyhoo or squid also yielded good results. For snappers, live

23
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,480
bait like shrimp or small pinfish worked well, while jigs

24
00:01:22,519 --> 00:01:27,159
tipped with cut bait were also successful. Hashed hotspots. One

25
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,280
of the hot spots yesterday was the area around the

26
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,680
Sombrero Reef, where several boats caught a mix of mahi

27
00:01:32,719 --> 00:01:37,799
mahi and snappers. Another productive spot was the waters off Islamarada,

28
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,519
particularly around the Hump, where kingfish and larger snappers were

29
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:46,879
caught additional tips. Given the current weather and tidal conditions,

30
00:01:47,159 --> 00:01:49,400
it's a good idea to head out early to take

31
00:01:49,439 --> 00:01:52,799
advantage of the calm morning waters. Keep an eye out

32
00:01:52,799 --> 00:01:55,879
for bird activity as it often indicates the presence of

33
00:01:55,920 --> 00:02:00,000
schooling fish. Also, be prepared for some rough sea's legs

34
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,319
later in the day as the winds pick up. Overall,

35
00:02:03,599 --> 00:02:05,599
it's shaping up to be a great day for fishing

36
00:02:05,599 --> 00:02:08,520
in the Florida Keys and Miami. So grab your gear

37
00:02:08,599 --> 00:02:11,400
and get out on the water. And that is it

38
00:02:11,479 --> 00:02:14,520
for today. Hit the subscribe button and never miss out,

39
00:02:15,159 --> 00:02:18,120

40
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,439
a quite pleased production with the help of AI. Thanks

41
00:02:21,439 --> 00:02:21,960
