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, This is Artificial Lure with your Florida
Keys and Miami fishing report for Saturday, April nineteenth, twenties
and twenty five. The weather today is starting warm and breezy,
with temps in the low eighties and a steady easterly
wind kicking up a moderate chop offshore. Sunrise hit around
six fifty four am and sunset will roll in at
seven forty two pm, giving you a beautiful long day
on the water. We're sitting right on a mid morning
incoming tide which should get a lot of species moving
both inshore and off. The offshore bite has been lively
despite some wind. Mahi mahi are showing up nicely. No
need to run too far out as some solid schoolies
and gaffers have been caught within ten to fifteen miles
of the reef edge. Troll small feathers or rigged ballyhoo
and keep a few live pilchards handy for any weed
lines or floating to you bump into. Sailfish action is
still consistent, especially if you're slow trolling live baits along
color changes and current edges, keep your eyes peeled for frigatebirds.
They're still the best fish finders on the water these days.
Closer in, the tarpinbite has been steady at the bridges
and the channels, especially during that evening tide. Anglers putting
in time at Islamerada seven Mile and Snake Creek bridges
are finding silver kings, though you'll need to work a
little for those big bites. Live mullet and fresh crab
continue to be the gold standard for bait, but live
pinfish or even big artificial swim baits are getting attention
when the current's moving right. Inshore trout and snook are
active in the bays and backwaters. Reports from the kayaks
have been solid, with anglers scoring trout on popping corks
with shrimp or soft plastics. Snook are hanging tight to
mangrove edges and dock lights, especially on high water for hotspots.
I'd hit the Marathon humps for mahi and blackfin in
the morning, then slide back in and work the bridges
for tarpin around sunset. If you want to stay closer
to Miami Government Cut and Biscayne Channel are both firing
for snook and jack cravall on live pilchards or artificials
like rpala x raps. Overall, there's no shortage of action
right now. Mahi sales, tarpin, trout, and snook are all biting.
If you match your tactics to the conditions and stay mobile,
enjoy the spring bite. Fish smart, and I'll see you
on the water. Good luck out there. Fish on artificial lure.
