00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,120
Speaker 1: This is your daily fishing report podcast for Florida Keys

2
00:00:03,439 --> 00:00:06,400
Miami and here is what is bending our rods today.

3
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:09,839
Good morning, anglers, This is Artificial Lure with your Florida

4
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:14,000
Keys and Miami fishing report for Saturday, April nineteenth, twenties

5
00:00:14,039 --> 00:00:17,920
and twenty five. The weather today is starting warm and breezy,

6
00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:20,960
with temps in the low eighties and a steady easterly

7
00:00:21,039 --> 00:00:25,280
wind kicking up a moderate chop offshore. Sunrise hit around

8
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,280
six fifty four am and sunset will roll in at

9
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,359
seven forty two pm, giving you a beautiful long day

10
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:34,200
on the water. We're sitting right on a mid morning

11
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,159
incoming tide which should get a lot of species moving

12
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:41,280
both inshore and off. The offshore bite has been lively

13
00:00:41,399 --> 00:00:45,439
despite some wind. Mahi mahi are showing up nicely. No

14
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,479
need to run too far out as some solid schoolies

15
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,479
and gaffers have been caught within ten to fifteen miles

16
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:55,840
of the reef edge. Troll small feathers or rigged ballyhoo

17
00:00:56,039 --> 00:00:58,719
and keep a few live pilchards handy for any weed

18
00:00:58,799 --> 00:01:03,039
lines or floating to you bump into. Sailfish action is

19
00:01:03,119 --> 00:01:06,879
still consistent, especially if you're slow trolling live baits along

20
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:11,480
color changes and current edges, keep your eyes peeled for frigatebirds.

21
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,480
They're still the best fish finders on the water these days.

22
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,719
Closer in, the tarpinbite has been steady at the bridges

23
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:23,359
and the channels, especially during that evening tide. Anglers putting

24
00:01:23,359 --> 00:01:26,840
in time at Islamerada seven Mile and Snake Creek bridges

25
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,640
are finding silver kings, though you'll need to work a

26
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:33,120
little for those big bites. Live mullet and fresh crab

27
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,319
continue to be the gold standard for bait, but live

28
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:40,280
pinfish or even big artificial swim baits are getting attention

29
00:01:40,719 --> 00:01:45,239
when the current's moving right. Inshore trout and snook are

30
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:49,079
active in the bays and backwaters. Reports from the kayaks

31
00:01:49,079 --> 00:01:52,400
have been solid, with anglers scoring trout on popping corks

32
00:01:52,439 --> 00:01:55,920
with shrimp or soft plastics. Snook are hanging tight to

33
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,920
mangrove edges and dock lights, especially on high water for hotspots.

34
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,680
I'd hit the Marathon humps for mahi and blackfin in

35
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,439
the morning, then slide back in and work the bridges

36
00:02:06,439 --> 00:02:09,639
for tarpin around sunset. If you want to stay closer

37
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,719
to Miami Government Cut and Biscayne Channel are both firing

38
00:02:12,759 --> 00:02:16,039
for snook and jack cravall on live pilchards or artificials

39
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:20,199
like rpala x raps. Overall, there's no shortage of action

40
00:02:20,319 --> 00:02:25,680
right now. Mahi sales, tarpin, trout, and snook are all biting.

41
00:02:25,759 --> 00:02:28,719
If you match your tactics to the conditions and stay mobile,

42
00:02:29,319 --> 00:02:31,800
enjoy the spring bite. Fish smart, and I'll see you

43
00:02:31,879 --> 00:02:35,680
on the water. Good luck out there. Fish on artificial lure.
