Speaker 1: This is your daily fishing report podcast for Florida Keys
Miami and here is what is bending our rods today.
Good morning, anglers, here's your Friday, April eleventh, twenty twenty
five fishing report for the waters around the Florida Keys
and Miami. Conditions are shaping up nicely, so let's dive in.
Sunrise today was at seven sixteen am and sunset will
be at seven forty three pm, giving you plenty of
daylight to hit the water. Temperatures are comfortably warm, peaking
in the mid to high eighties with a light breeze,
ideal weather for both offshore and inshore fishing. The tides
in the Florida Keys are moderately favorable for fishing today.
The mix of high and low tides should support good
fish activity, especially during the transitional periods. Make sure to
plan your fishing trips around these tide changes for optimal results.
In the Florida Keys, tarpin remain the star attraction. Anglers
targeting the silver king are finding success near local chair
panels and bridges, particularly during the early morning hours. Live
mullet and dead bait are working well, with a few
fish caught around forty to fifty pounds earlier this week.
For artificial lures, try unweighted soft plastics like the HOGI
ten inch original eel or weighted protail eels for areas
with stronger current. Meanwhile, reef and flats fishing continues to
produce an impressive variety of species, including yellowtail snapper, mangrove snapper, bonefish,
and permits. Soft plastics such as doa shrimp and paddletail
jigs remain the go to lures for flats fishing. Live
shrimp and crabs are excellent bait choices for permit and bonefish. Offshore,
those venturing out past the reef are reporting blackfintuna action. Trolling.
Weighted seven inch protail eels at around four point five
knots has been particularly effective. Closer to Miami. Inshore fishing
is buzzing with snook, redfish, and sea trout. Twitch baits
such as mere olures in jerk baits like the Rpalla
x rap are yielding solid results. In shallower waters. Anglers
are also catching jacks and small sharks, providing exciting light
tackle opportunities for bass anglers. Locally favored lures like speed
worms and jerk baits are delivering consistent success in Miami's
freshwater canals and lakes. If you're looking for hotspots, head
to Islamrada for tarpin in the early hours or the
bridges around Big Pine Key, which are buzzing with game
fish activity. Alternatively, try Key Biscayne for snook and jacks
near the mangroves. The keys in Miami waters are alive
with action this week. Don't forget to bring a mix
of live bait and artificial lures to adapt to different conditions.
