00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,200
Speaker 1: This is your daily Fishing Report podcast for Florida Keys,

2
00:00:03,399 --> 00:00:06,559
Miami and here is what is bending our rods today.

3
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:10,160
As of September twenty sixth, twenty twenty four, the fishing

4
00:00:10,199 --> 00:00:13,240
scene in the Florida Keys and Miami is looking promising

5
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:16,519
despite being in the peak of hurricane season. Here's what

6
00:00:16,559 --> 00:00:20,600
you need to know for a successful day on the water. Hashashasha,

7
00:00:20,839 --> 00:00:23,839
Weather and tides. The weather is expected to be partly

8
00:00:23,879 --> 00:00:26,359
cloudy with a high of eighty eight Grease Ferry and

9
00:00:26,399 --> 00:00:28,800
a low of seventy eight Grease Ferry. There's a slight

10
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:32,039
chance of scattered thunderstorms, so keep an eye on the forecast.

11
00:00:32,799 --> 00:00:35,359
Tides are significant today with the full moon on the

12
00:00:35,399 --> 00:00:39,640
seventeenth still influencing the waters. Expect very high tides and

13
00:00:39,719 --> 00:00:43,640
strong currents. The sunrise is at seven fourteen am and

14
00:00:43,759 --> 00:00:47,320
sunset will be at seven twenty three pm. Fish activity

15
00:00:47,759 --> 00:00:51,000
yesterday saw a lot of action in various areas along

16
00:00:51,039 --> 00:00:54,520
the Mangrove shorelines. Anglers caught a good number of snook,

17
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,759
mangrove snapper, and jacks. In the back country. Bonefish and

18
00:00:58,799 --> 00:01:01,880
permit were active, especially during the early morning and late

19
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,640
afternoon when the sun was not too high. Offshore, the

20
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:10,159
reef and deeper waters yielded kingfish, Mahi mahi, and wahoo.

21
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,359
The bait migration is in full swing, with millions of

22
00:01:13,439 --> 00:01:18,519
mullet moving down the coastline, attracting predatory fish like mahi mahi, kingfish,

23
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:22,280
and even the occasional blue marlin. Best lures in bait

24
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,040
for inshore fishing, live crabs are a must for targeting

25
00:01:26,079 --> 00:01:30,239
permit For snook and mangrove snapper, use live bait such

26
00:01:30,239 --> 00:01:33,719
as pilchards or shrimp. In the back country. Fly fishing

27
00:01:33,719 --> 00:01:36,959
with small streamers or shrimp patterns can be effective for bonefish.

28
00:01:37,439 --> 00:01:41,239
Offshore trolling with baits skipping across the surface at about

29
00:01:41,239 --> 00:01:45,280
five to six knots is effective for kingfish and mahi mahi.

30
00:01:45,719 --> 00:01:48,719
Use deep lines with planner boards to target these fish,

31
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,959
especially around the colour change where the greener water meets

32
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:57,719
the blue water Hawk Channel. This area is known for

33
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,040
its abundant bait schools and bird diving out activity, which

34
00:02:01,079 --> 00:02:04,680
often indicate the presence of kobia, mahi mahi, and wahou

35
00:02:05,359 --> 00:02:08,800
the reef. Trolling the reefs for kingfish and benitos is

36
00:02:08,879 --> 00:02:12,800
highly recommended. Look for areas with structure like weed patches,

37
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,280
grass lines, or driftwood, as these can hold a variety

38
00:02:16,319 --> 00:02:21,400
of fish. Mangrove shorelines. Fishing along the mangroves, especially around

39
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:25,319
bridges and piers, can yield snook, mangrove snapper, and jacks.

40
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,560
Remember to stay alert for weather changes and enjoy the

41
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:32,520
phenomenal fishing that September has to offer in the Florida

42
00:02:32,599 --> 00:02:36,039
Keys and Miami. And that is it for today. Hit
