00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: Artificial lore. Here with your Florida Keys and Miami Fishing

00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:08,279
report for Sunday, October twelfth, twenty twenty five lines in

3
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:11,519
early today saw the kind of morning every angler dreams about.

4
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:15,240
At seven twenty three am, sunrise cracked over the clear

5
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:19,039
blue with sunset set for seven zero two pm. We're

6
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,960
riding mostly calm fall weather, slightly cooler tempts in the morning,

7
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,000
and a touch of humidity hanging in the air. Prime

8
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:28,519
conditions to get after it before the real heat kicks

9
00:00:28,559 --> 00:00:31,960
in later. Tidal movement's been steady. We started with a

10
00:00:32,039 --> 00:00:35,359
high tide at one thirty nine am around Key West,

11
00:00:35,799 --> 00:00:38,399
dropped to a low at eight forty six am, then

12
00:00:38,439 --> 00:00:40,880
the flow swinging up again for a three forty nine

13
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,520
pm high and settles to the next low at seven

14
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:48,399
thirty pm. Classic October rhythm. Miami's Biscayny Bay is running

15
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:52,119
similar with a big push late afternoon. These tides turn

16
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,240
the flats on, especially when paired with that steady east

17
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,280
wind we're getting off the Atlantic, putting the feedback on

18
00:00:58,399 --> 00:01:01,880
for everything from bonefish to snapper. According to the charts

19
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:05,560
at Noah and Tides for fishing this week, action's been brisk,

20
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,480
especially around islam Rata through the middle Keys. The boys

21
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:13,560
at WPLG and the Florida Insider Fishing Report are talking

22
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:17,680
about bent rods from dust to dawn. Mangrove snapper are

23
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,120
thick on the reefs and back country channels. Folks using

24
00:01:21,159 --> 00:01:24,879
fresh cut pilchards, shrimp and pinfish have been hauling in

25
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:29,159
limits of mangroves, some pushing two pounds out on the flats.

26
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,120
Those snapper are as aggressive as ever. If you've got

27
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,920
a handful of fresh pilchards your set. YouTube's been blowing

28
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,040
up with local crews pulling big mangroves on chunk bait.

29
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:44,000
Just remember to anchor uptide and chunk offshore. Dolphin Madhi

30
00:01:44,079 --> 00:01:47,519
mayi and some blackfintuna have been making appearances along the

31
00:01:47,599 --> 00:01:51,359
edge of the Gulf Stream, especially near the humps. Islamorada

32
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,640
Hump and Marathon Hump are the hot numbers right now.

33
00:01:55,159 --> 00:01:58,719
Skippers running out with live pilchards and small vertical jigs

34
00:01:58,719 --> 00:02:00,920
have had the best luck. If you hit the weed

35
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,560
lines out past five hundred feet, you're gonna find some

36
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:08,000
gaffers and peanut sized dolphin pushing through artificial poppers. And

37
00:02:08,039 --> 00:02:11,199
shiny trolling feathers have been hot when worked quickly behind

38
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,919
the boat back on the bridges and deep channels, especially

39
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,120
seven Mile Bridge and Channel five. The tarpin have been

40
00:02:18,199 --> 00:02:21,360
rolling at night with good numbers on live mullet free

41
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,479
lined on moving water. Snap a live crab if you

42
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,759
hit it toward the outgoing tide, we're drift swin baits

43
00:02:27,879 --> 00:02:31,080
like the doa bait buster. Locals know this is when

44
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,960
the big boys show up. Daytime. The pilchard swarms are

45
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,360
in grab a net and you're in business for snooking

46
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,400
big jacks all along the pilings, especially closer to Miami's

47
00:02:42,479 --> 00:02:46,800
Haulover Inlet and Government Cut. A reliable spot north of

48
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,879
there is the broad Causeway. Live pinfish under a float

49
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,960
is the ticket for lower fans. Toss silver spoons and

50
00:02:55,039 --> 00:02:58,599
bucktail jigs in the early light along Mangrove edges and

51
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:02,439
patch reefs. Go off plastics and root beer and chartreuse

52
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,599
have been picking up quality trout and the occasional redfish

53
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,159
in the grass flats up towards Biscayne Day and Blackpoint.

54
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:15,039
Best baits this week live pilchered cut pinfish, shrimp and

55
00:03:15,159 --> 00:03:20,439
crab top lures white bucktail one fourth ounce yozii, crystal

56
00:03:20,479 --> 00:03:24,520
minnows and skiter walks for early surface action. A couple

57
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:29,240
hot spots to circle Isla, Morada's Whale Harbor channel, especially

58
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,400
at the top of the incoming tide, and Alligator Reef

59
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,520
for non stop snapper and the odd grouper. Closer to Miami,

60
00:03:36,879 --> 00:03:40,639
Soldier Key and Stiltsfield Flats are holding big bonefish and

61
00:03:40,719 --> 00:03:44,080
snapper when the current is right. Thanks for tuning in
