00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,439
Speaker 1: Artificial lore. Here with your Florida Keys and Miami Fishing

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:07,599
report for Friday, October thirty, first, twenty twenty five. We're

3
00:00:07,599 --> 00:00:10,560
waking up to a cool, breezy morning with northwest wind

4
00:00:10,599 --> 00:00:13,039
steady at twenty to twenty five knots as a cold

5
00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:17,280
front moved through late yesterday. Seas offshore are rough running

6
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:19,559
about six to eight feet on both the Atlantic and

7
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:23,239
Gulf sides, with the National Weather Service and Miami recommending

8
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:27,239
small craft advisory caution. Expect this brisk wind to lay

9
00:00:27,239 --> 00:00:30,920
down starting late afternoon, so early risers be ready to

10
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,240
tuck in behind the mangroves or hit protected baywaters for

11
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:38,079
the safest action. Sunrise today clocks in at seven forty

12
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:42,119
am and sunset set for six forty seven pm. If

13
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,799
you're planning your byte windows, the key tibes in the

14
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,880
area suggest a high tide peaking around eight twenty one

15
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,679
am and another at ten twenty five pm, with lows

16
00:00:51,679 --> 00:00:54,880
at two forty three am and three point thirty nine pm.

17
00:00:55,399 --> 00:00:58,000
That means your best shot for aggressive feeding is late

18
00:00:58,039 --> 00:01:01,399
morning through midday, just as the tide rolls in a

19
00:01:01,479 --> 00:01:04,519
proven window for cruising predators to push bait up on

20
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:08,040
the flats. Recent catches this week have showcased some classic

21
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:12,400
late October variety. Anglers working patriifs between Key Largo and

22
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:16,439
Marafon have found steady snapper action, lots of keeper yellowtail

23
00:01:16,519 --> 00:01:19,959
up to two pounds, scattered mangrove snapper, and a few

24
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,400
muttons mixed in around deeper channels. Bull Sharks and the

25
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,799
odd tarpin are still showing up in the back country,

26
00:01:26,159 --> 00:01:29,719
especially near bridges. At night. Offshore crews lucky enough to

27
00:01:29,719 --> 00:01:32,439
braid the swells have picked off some dolphin Mayi mai,

28
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,640
mostly in the five to ten pound range, plus scattered

29
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,519
blackfintuna in the blue water east of Islamorida this game day.

30
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,760
In southern Miami Coast this week have seen increased bonefish

31
00:01:42,799 --> 00:01:46,200
activity on the flats, with several anglers landing fish and

32
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,680
the three six pound range. Permitters still scattered, but sight

33
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:53,519
fishing has been productive near Stiltsville and feather Beds. Spanish

34
00:01:53,599 --> 00:01:56,599
mackerel reports are picking up near Government Cut, with bird

35
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:00,319
flocks giving away their location. Best baits if you're headed

36
00:02:00,359 --> 00:02:03,840
to the reef. Pilchards and thread herring remain king but frozen.

37
00:02:03,879 --> 00:02:07,159
Bally who is a solid bet for chunning snapper. For

38
00:02:07,239 --> 00:02:11,479
flats fishing, live shrimp have outperformed anything else, especially with

39
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,199
the cooling water temps pushing tailing bonefish into shallow bars.

40
00:02:16,039 --> 00:02:20,000
Offshore trolling rigged benito strips and blue white featherlures is

41
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:24,240
bringing in dolphin and tuna. For artificial lure fans. The

42
00:02:24,319 --> 00:02:28,319
hot picks are bucktail jigs for inshore snapper and mackerel

43
00:02:28,719 --> 00:02:32,400
tip with shrimp for added punch. Bold spoons and rubber

44
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:36,080
shad on flats for bonefish and sea trout. Large silver

45
00:02:36,159 --> 00:02:39,560
top water plugs around bridges after dark for tarpin and snook.

46
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,240
A couple of local hotspots to hit today. Channel two

47
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,879
Bridge near Islamorada shelter from the wind, and big numbers

48
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:51,080
of snapper and group are reported Soldier Key Flats, Biscayne Bay,

49
00:02:51,439 --> 00:02:55,400
prime moving tide conditions and plenty of bonefish sighted at sunrise.

50
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,039
The patch reefs at Tennessee Reef, Key Largo. Good numbers

51
00:02:59,039 --> 00:03:02,479
of yellowtail and accasional mutton snapper best on the incoming

52
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,479
tide with the front moving through in a moderate chop.

53
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:09,240
On all inland waters, safety first, stick to wind protected

54
00:03:09,319 --> 00:03:12,080
channels and look for that mid morning tide. Mask up

55
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,280
those live shrimp and cast tight to structure for best results.

56
00:03:15,759 --> 00:03:18,439
