00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,319
Speaker 1: This is artificial ore. With your narrative fishing report for Friday,

2
00:00:03,399 --> 00:00:06,719
August eighth, twenty twenty five, covering the waters in and

3
00:00:06,759 --> 00:00:10,160
around the Florida Keys and Miami. We kicked off the

4
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,320
day with a light southeast wind around ten knots according

5
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:16,079
to the National Weather Service out of Key West, setting

6
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:18,719
up gentle seas with only a slight chop in the Bay.

7
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:22,559
Expect these breezes to stick around, but decrease some as

8
00:00:22,559 --> 00:00:25,600
we head deeper into the day. With a lingering tropical

9
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:30,120
wave pushing west. Be ready for occasional downpours and scattered

10
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:34,399
boomer thunderstorms rolling across the flats and offshore waters, so

11
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,920
keep an eye on the sky and don't hesitate to

12
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,719
take cover if lightning fires up. Sunrise in Miami Beach

13
00:00:40,799 --> 00:00:44,439
is official at six fifty three am, and sunset will

14
00:00:44,439 --> 00:00:48,240
be at seven fifty five PM. Fish are most active

15
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,280
at dawn and dusk, so set those alarms for first

16
00:00:51,359 --> 00:00:54,320
light and don't sleep on that last bite before dark.

17
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,079
Those prime hours have been producing some of the best

18
00:00:57,119 --> 00:01:02,240
action all summer. Long tides from Miami Beach. You've got

19
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:05,359
a pre dawn high tide at seven eighteen am, a

20
00:01:05,439 --> 00:01:08,560
midday low at one thirty six pm, then we'll see

21
00:01:08,599 --> 00:01:11,359
the waters peeking again in the evening. Over in Big

22
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,439
Pine Quay, the high tide is at eight thirteen am

23
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:18,000
with a low around three twenty six pm. This morning's

24
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:21,359
incoming tide lines up perfect for working mangroves and bridges

25
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,640
before the summer heat settles in. Now for the fish report,

26
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,239
the August bite is still on fire. According to recent

27
00:01:28,239 --> 00:01:31,120
outings and local captains. Key Largo and the Upper Keys

28
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:35,120
are delivering Spanish mackerel, kingfish kobia, and a steady run

29
00:01:35,159 --> 00:01:38,680
of big jacks and sharks. Just offshore. The Gulf side

30
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,280
in the ever Blades back country are churning out speckled

31
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:45,760
sea trout, snook, redfish, and mangrove snapper, with enough jumbo

32
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,159
jack krevelel to wear your arms out. On the Atlantic

33
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,640
Patch reefs and deep wrecks, mutton and yellowtail snapper are

34
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,239
stacking up, and the Mahi mai run remains decent if

35
00:01:56,239 --> 00:01:59,640
you're willing to make the run out Deep Captain Experiences

36
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:04,599
says Inshore trips are seeing family style success on mixed bags,

37
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,560
especially with live shrimp and pilchards for bait. For tackle

38
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:12,719
and tactics. Artificial lures are working exceptionally well this week.

39
00:02:13,199 --> 00:02:16,360
Topwater plugs and walk the Dog style baits have brought

40
00:02:16,479 --> 00:02:21,520
explosive hits at sunrise over grass flats and near mangrove edge,

41
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:26,120
especially for sea trout and snook. Spanish mackerel and kingfish

42
00:02:26,159 --> 00:02:29,840
can't resist flashy spoons and white bucktail jigs ripped fast

43
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:35,520
offshore troll, bright skirted ballyhoo or dolphin colored soft plastics

44
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:39,520
if you're chasing mati. When casting by the bridges and channels,

45
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,840
live shrimp or pilchards are dynamite for snapper, and chunks

46
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,680
of fresh ladyfish or mullet are your best bet for

47
00:02:46,759 --> 00:02:49,960
soaking up sharks and big jacks. A couple of local

48
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:54,439
hotspots to ain for right now. Haulover Inlet remains a

49
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,840
classic for kingfish, snoke at the rocks and cruising tarpain

50
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:03,840
in the evening. Current Alligator Reef off Islamorada is lighting

51
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:08,039
up with magnum, mangrove snapper and yellowtail, especially on the

52
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:12,080
early tide. If you're work in the backcountry, the channels

53
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,719
and points around Jewfish Creek and Key Largo are stacking

54
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,919
up with snook and trout, perfect for a half day

55
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:23,240
morning drift before storms build up. Be flexible, watch for

56
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,479
birds and bait, and if that rain rolls in duck

57
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,280
into a nearby channel. The fish have been turning on

58
00:03:29,479 --> 00:03:32,680
right after those squalls pass. Thanks for tuning in to
