00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: This is your daily Fishing Report podcast for Florida Keys

2
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:06,280
Miami and here is what is bending our rods today.

3
00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:10,039
As of October sixth, the Florida Keys in Miami are

4
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:14,000
offering some exciting fishing opportunities, especially with the fall bait

5
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:19,079
migration in full swing. Hattack weather and tides today, you

6
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:22,199
can expect partly cloudy skies with a high of around

7
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:26,160
eighty four degrees fahrenheit and a gentle breeze from the northeast.

8
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,320
The tidal conditions are favorable with a high tide at

9
00:00:29,399 --> 00:00:31,879
nine thirty four am and a low tide at three

10
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:35,200
thirty four pm. These tidal shifts will bring plenty of

11
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,359
bait fish into the areas, attracting a variety of predators.

12
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:42,719
Sunrise and sunset. Sunrise is at seven twenty four am

13
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:45,759
and sunset will be at six fifty four pm, giving

14
00:00:45,799 --> 00:00:49,840
you ample daylight to enjoy your fishing trip. Fish activity

15
00:00:50,079 --> 00:00:53,600
yesterday saw a lot of activity from several species. Snook,

16
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:57,159
particularly in the twelve to eighteen pound range, where active

17
00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:01,280
around the inlets and shorelines following the bait school. Redfish

18
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,400
and black drum were also plentiful, with some larger black

19
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:08,519
drum in the twenty five pound range caught in certain areas. Tarpin,

20
00:01:08,519 --> 00:01:11,319
although typically more active later in the season, made a

21
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:15,439
late season appearance, especially in the protected areas and creeks.

22
00:01:17,239 --> 00:01:20,879
Best lures and bait for snook. Using live baits such

23
00:01:20,879 --> 00:01:23,719
as pilchards or mullet near the points and inlets where

24
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:27,079
there is some current is highly effective. For redfish and

25
00:01:27,159 --> 00:01:31,000
black drum shrimp or soft plastic lures worked well. If

26
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,239
you're targeting tarpin, try using larger live baits or streamers

27
00:01:34,239 --> 00:01:40,640
in the creeks and canals hotspots. One of the hot

28
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,159
spots right now is around Flamingo and the mainland of

29
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,640
South Florida, where the creeks, canals, and shorelines are teeming

30
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:52,040
with smaller snook, redfish, and juvenile goliath grouper. Another great

31
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:56,799
spot is the backcountry of the Florida Keys, particularly around Islamorada,

32
00:01:57,319 --> 00:02:00,319
where the fall bait migration is bringing in large groups

33
00:02:00,359 --> 00:02:04,640
of bait fish and their predators. Overall, October is shaping

34
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,719
up to be a great month for fishing in the

35
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:10,159
Florida Keys and Miami, with plenty of fish to target

36
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,080
and favorable weather conditions. Just keep an eye on the weather,

37
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,199
as tropical systems can still affect the area, but they

38
00:02:17,199 --> 00:02:21,159
often bring excellent fishing just before they hit. And that

39
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,439
is it for today. Hit the subscribe button and never

40
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,039
miss out. Keep those tips up and lines wet. This

41
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,639
has been a quite pleased production with the help of AI.

42
00:02:31,439 --> 00:02:32,280
Thanks for listening.
