Speaker 1: Good morning, fellow anglers. This is artificial lure coming to
you with your Thursday, October twenty third, twenty twenty five,
Florida Keys and Miami Fishing Report. Let's kick off with
the tides. In Key West expect a low tide around
five twenty six am at zero point two eight feet
and a high just afternoon twelve pm, peaking at one
point six six feet. There's another low at four fifty
two pm zero point nine four feet and high again
at eleven twenty pm two point two eight feet. Channel
Key West Side will see a high at one fifty
eight am, low at eight thirty three am, high at
three twelve pm, and another low at seven fifty nine pm.
These conditions are typical for late October and are prime
for fishing the moving water, especially as it pushes baitfish
onto the flats and into deep channels. Sunrise is at
seven twenty nine am, in sunset at six fifty three pm.
Early risers get first light on glassy waters, so plam
your cast around those changes for best results. Weatherwise. Florida
Disaster reports minor coastal flooding caution in the Keys, with
a fair coastal breeze, moderate humidity, and a mild chop pack.
A light jacket for the boat as mornings have a
bit of that fall nip. No major storms in the forecast,
just classic subtropical autumn, good for getting on the water
without battling thunderstorms. The bite has been active this week.
Inshore Bonefish, Permit and Tarpon are patrolling the flats with
snook and redfish hunting the mangros and backcountry cuts. If
you're drifting the bridges or rocky channels, expect steady grouper
and snapper action. Channel Key and Snipe Point have both
been buzzing plenty of mangrove snapper, Spanish mackerel, and a
few slot sized redfish. Offshore. Dolphin Mai Mai are still
trickling in the deeper blue. Then there's a surge of
kingfish and blackfintuna off the rex and ledges. Charter captains
from Islamorida and Key Largo are reporting strong numbers in
the box. Early runs see eight to twelve fish on average,
with some fifteen pound kings landed just northeast of Alligator Reef.
The stone crab season just opened and crabbers are pulling
nice claws from the muddy bottom. According to local news,
what's working. Top angler choices this week are live pilchards,
cut ballyhoo, and fresh shrink for bait. Lures like white
bucktail jigs, chartruse paddle tails and slow trolled yosery. Hard
minnows are drawing strikes from both snook and tarpin. Pilchered
schools are thick in the harbor. Net a few and
you'll be covered for predatory fish. Offshore trolling with rig
ballyhoo or shiny skirted lures is producing solid maddy and tuna.
Hot spots to try today West k B Channel Key,
west side reef edges and grass flats for snapper, redfish
and Spanish mackerel. Snipe point shallow flats and channels bonefish
in the morning. Tarpin and snapper on the outflow tide.
West k Card Sound Bridge best for snook and jack
cravill during the moving tides. Remember to fish the tide
swing for best water movement, and don't forget to check
your regulations. Slot limits and closures change quick this time
of year. That's it for today's Florida Keys and Miami
fishing report. Thanks for tuning in, don't forget to subscribe
