00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,559
Speaker 1: Good morning, anglers, artificial lure. Here with your Friday, September fifth,

2
00:00:04,599 --> 00:00:08,039
twenty twenty five fishing report live from the Golden Waters

3
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:11,640
in and around the Florida Keys and Miami. We started

4
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,439
the morning under partly cloudy skies with some humid air

5
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:17,600
in the low eighties. According to the National Weather Service,

6
00:00:17,879 --> 00:00:21,039
expect southwest winds today at ten to fifteen knots over

7
00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:24,320
the bays and near shore. There's a slight to moderate

8
00:00:24,399 --> 00:00:27,399
chop out there, and be ready for downpours and scattered

9
00:00:27,399 --> 00:00:30,239
thunderstorms throughout the day. Peep an eye on the radar

10
00:00:30,359 --> 00:00:32,560
and pack that rain show because the front in the

11
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:35,200
Gulf is feeding in plenty of moisture right through the weekend.

12
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,399
Sunrise hit us right at seven oh two am, and

13
00:00:38,439 --> 00:00:41,600
we'll see sunset tonight at seven thirty five pm, giving

14
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:43,960
us just over twelve and a half hours of daylight

15
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,119
for those epic drifts in the flats or long soaks

16
00:00:47,119 --> 00:00:50,560
by the bridges. Now to the tides. Miami Beach had

17
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,560
a high tide early around two fifty four am, with

18
00:00:53,679 --> 00:00:56,479
the next low tide coming at nine twenty four am,

19
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:58,600
then a strong push to high again at four oh

20
00:00:58,719 --> 00:01:01,920
five pmwing is on the low side today with a

21
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:05,239
tidal coefficient rising gently from twenty eight to thirty five

22
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,519
by dark, meaning current will be lazy with only subtle

23
00:01:08,519 --> 00:01:11,760
moves on bait and fish. That's got many anglers posting

24
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,519
up near structure or deeper edges instead of work in

25
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,359
the open flats. The inshore bites lit up in the

26
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:21,439
early morning and late evening hours. Local guides at budenaries

27
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,280
and robbies have been put in folks on healthy sea route,

28
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,400
solid schools of mangrove snapper off the mainland channels, plus

29
00:01:28,439 --> 00:01:31,519
Spanish mackerel cutting up the outer edges of the patch reefs.

30
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,760
There's also action from resident tarpin and dock lights and

31
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,760
creek mouths, especially where stormwater runoff is moving shrimp and

32
00:01:39,799 --> 00:01:44,680
bait fish. For you offshore folks, Mahi mahi catches continue steady,

33
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,359
mainly schoolies, with the odds slammer thrown in farther out,

34
00:01:48,719 --> 00:01:52,120
especially near floating debris on the color change between eight

35
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,599
hundred and one thousand feet deep. Drop crews have been seen,

36
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,599
plenty of tile fish and yellow edge grouper, and this

37
00:01:58,719 --> 00:02:02,159
week strong reports a black fintuna busting on the ocean

38
00:02:02,239 --> 00:02:05,920
side near Fowey and Tennessee Reefs, where the schools get

39
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,960
hammered by birds and benita hot baits. This week, live

40
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,400
pilchards are gold if you can net them before the

41
00:02:12,439 --> 00:02:16,800
storms hit. For artificials, anything with a shimmer or chartruse

42
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:20,680
skirt is drawn hard strikes, especially bucktail jigs tipped with

43
00:02:20,759 --> 00:02:26,199
gold or live shrimp under popping corks, trolling skirts and feathers,

44
00:02:26,199 --> 00:02:29,159
and blue white or pink have produced good numbers on

45
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:33,199
Mahi Mai offshore, with the classic cedar plug still cracking

46
00:02:33,199 --> 00:02:36,039
the code on tuna. If you're looking to slim down

47
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,360
the search, two of the hottest local spots right now

48
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:44,000
are Alligator Reef off Islamorada. Anglers are pulling up serious

49
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,639
numbers of yellowtail, snapper and the occasional mutton in the

50
00:02:47,719 --> 00:02:51,439
sand and the run along Government Cut in Miami Beach,

51
00:02:51,879 --> 00:02:55,400
where outgoing tied in the evening is a prime window

52
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,199
for snook and tarpin feeding in the wash. Quick tip

53
00:02:59,439 --> 00:03:02,759
with those skins shattered thunderstorms rolling in fast, you'll want

54
00:03:02,759 --> 00:03:05,639
to keep an eye on the sky and the radar

55
00:03:05,719 --> 00:03:09,199
app Remember if you hear thunder, get off the water.

56
00:03:09,439 --> 00:03:13,439
And safe undercover until it's passed. That wraps up today's

57
00:03:13,439 --> 00:03:16,039
report from the Keys to the Magic City. Thanks for
