00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: This is your daily Fishing Report podcast for Florida Keys

2
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:05,759
Miami and here is what is bending our rods today

3
00:00:07,519 --> 00:00:10,759
for January nineteenth, twenty twenty five in the Florida Keys.

4
00:00:10,759 --> 00:00:13,919
In Miami, the fishing scene is looking promising despite the

5
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,440
chilly winter weather. First, let's look at the tides for

6
00:00:17,559 --> 00:00:20,079
Key West today. We have a high tide at zero

7
00:00:20,199 --> 00:00:23,160
fifty one am and one twenty five pm, with low

8
00:00:23,199 --> 00:00:26,000
tides at seven o three am and seven thirty eight pm.

9
00:00:26,399 --> 00:00:29,359
The sunrise is at seven twelve am and the sunset

10
00:00:29,399 --> 00:00:32,679
will be at six o three pm. The weather has

11
00:00:32,719 --> 00:00:36,560
been relatively mild for South Florida standards, but cold fronts

12
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:40,159
have been passing through which can kick up the seas. However,

13
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:43,240
these cold fronts also trigger a hot bite, especially for

14
00:00:43,359 --> 00:00:47,079
kingfish and sailfish. Keep an eye on the weather as

15
00:00:47,119 --> 00:00:50,640
it can change quickly. In the waters around Miami and

16
00:00:50,679 --> 00:00:54,840
the Keys, the fish activity is quite active. Yesterday saw

17
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,920
a lot of action from kingfish, particularly closer to the

18
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:02,200
reef lines. Using lie baits like goggle eyes or lures

19
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,280
such as spoons or rig ballow can be very effective.

20
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,599
Kingfish are feeding just off the reef, and you can

21
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:12,480
also expect to find some wahoo mixed in. For those

22
00:01:12,519 --> 00:01:15,879
targeting sailfish, look for color changes where the green water

23
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,799
meets the blue water. Trolling with rig ballow or using

24
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:21,959
live baits on the surface or with a kite can

25
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,680
yield good results. Spanish mackerel and Sero mackerel are also

26
00:01:25,799 --> 00:01:30,120
abundant near the shoreline and just off the reef. Inshore

27
00:01:30,359 --> 00:01:32,959
snook are near the shoreline preparing to head into the

28
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,120
creeks for the winter months, but still active on warmer days.

29
00:01:36,799 --> 00:01:40,000
Redfish and plodrum are also present in the same areas,

30
00:01:40,519 --> 00:01:42,799
and you can catch them using live bait or big

31
00:01:42,879 --> 00:01:46,920
live shrimp. Bonefish and barracuda can be found on the flats,

32
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,560
especially on warmer days, and live shrimp make excellent bait

33
00:01:50,599 --> 00:01:54,719
for them. If you're looking for hot spots, consider the

34
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,799
area around the Palm Beach and Broward Counties for sailfish

35
00:01:57,799 --> 00:02:01,920
and kingfish. For inshore fishing, the flats around Key West

36
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:07,159
and the Lower Keys are excellent for snook, redfish, and bonefish. Additionally,

37
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:11,520
the finger channels in Florida Bay can yield mangrove snappers, mackerels,

38
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:16,199
and mutton snappers. If you anchor up and start chumming. Overall,

39
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,039
it's a great time to get out on the water,

40
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:22,560
despite the occasional cold front. With the right bait and lures,

41
00:02:22,599 --> 00:02:25,439
you're likely to have a productive and enjoyable fishing day

42
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,800
in the Florida Keys in Miami. And that is it
