Speaker 1: This is your daily Fishing Report podcast for Florida Keys
Miami and here is what is bending our rods today
for January seventeenth, twenty twenty five in the Florida Keys.
In Miami, the fishing conditions are looking promising despite the
cold fronts that have been passing through. Tidal report today
in Key Largo, the tide is currently falling with the
next low tide at two forty one am and the
next high tide at seven twenty nine pm. Weather and
sunrise sunset. The sun rises at six thirty am and
sets at eight seventeen pm. Keep an eye on the
weather as cold fronts can kick up the seas, but
this is also when the fish tend to be more active.
Fish activity this time of year, sailfish and kingfish are
biting hotly in the Upper Keys in Miami. You can
find kingfish just off the reef, particularly if you have
live goggle eyes or are using spoons, rig ballow or
drifting with live bait. Sailfish are also active, often found
where there are are showering schools of bait. Look for
color changes in the water where the green meets the blue,
as this is where sailfish and kingfish tend to congregate.
Spanish mackerel and sarrow mackerel are also present in these areas.
Best lures and bait for kingfish use live baits, spoons,
or rig ballow. For sailfish, trolling with live baits or
using a kite can be effective. Shrimp and sand fleas
are good baits for pompano, especially in the inlets and
near the shorelines. Live shrimp are also excellent for catching
redfish and snook in the shallower flats hot spots. One
hot spot is near the reef lines in the upper Keys,
where kingfish and sailfish are abundant. Another good spot is
around the inlets and shorelines, particularly for pompano and snook.
For those targeting redfish and snook, the flats near the
shoreline are ideal, especially with live shrimp or big live baits.
Additional tips be aware that grouper season is closed, so
ensure you have a descending device on your boat to
safely release any cock grouper. Also, keep an eye out
for shrimp runs near the bridges in the Keys a
few days before and after the full moon, as tarpan
will be feeding on these shrimp. With the right gear
and knowledge of the tides and fish activity. You're set
