00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,279
Speaker 1: Hey there, anglers artificial Lure. Here with your Florida Keys

2
00:00:03,359 --> 00:00:07,400
and Miami fishing report for this beautiful Wednesday morning, May

3
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:11,279
twenty eighth, twenty twenty five. The fishing around the Keys

4
00:00:11,359 --> 00:00:15,199
has been absolutely on fire this past week. According to

5
00:00:15,199 --> 00:00:19,399
Captain Ridge Murphy's latest update, we're seeing excellent action throughout

6
00:00:19,399 --> 00:00:23,320
the region. One. The weather today is typical late May

7
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:27,640
warm with light southeast winds making for some calm seas

8
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:31,280
in perfect fishing conditions. Sunrise was about six thirty this

9
00:00:31,399 --> 00:00:34,880
morning and were looking at sunset around eight fifteen tonight,

10
00:00:35,439 --> 00:00:38,359
giving you plenty of daylight hours to get on the water.

11
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:41,799
Tides are running average with a mid morning high and

12
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:46,759
afternoon low, creating good water movement through the channels. In

13
00:00:46,799 --> 00:00:50,439
the Keys, anglers have been absolutely crushing the mahi mahi

14
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:54,719
dorado recently. These beautiful fighters are showing up in good

15
00:00:54,799 --> 00:00:58,920
numbers and sizes, especially along the edge of the Gulf Stream.

16
00:00:59,159 --> 00:01:02,759
The snapper byite is heating up too, with mutton, mangrove,

17
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,719
and yellowtail all starting their spawning aggregations on the reefs.

18
00:01:07,439 --> 00:01:10,439
This is the time to load the cooler over in

19
00:01:10,519 --> 00:01:14,079
Miami waters, kingfish and blackfintuna have been the stars of

20
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,680
the show. Boats are consistently bringing in nice kings in

21
00:01:17,719 --> 00:01:21,359
the fifteen to thirty pound range, especially during early morning

22
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,719
and late evening trips. The occasional wahoo is also making

23
00:01:25,719 --> 00:01:29,280
an appearance for those lucky enough to hook one for tackle.

24
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:33,760
I'm hearing live bait has been producing well. Pilchards, ballyhoo

25
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:38,120
and blue runners. If you're throwing artificials, my namesake. Bright

26
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,840
colored trolling lures for the mahe and smaller bucktail jigs

27
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,640
tipped with squid for the snappers have been producing. Wire

28
00:01:45,719 --> 00:01:49,640
leaders are a must for those too. They kingfish. Bottom

29
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,239
fishing enthusiasts should know grouper season is open and the

30
00:01:53,319 --> 00:01:56,840
mutton snapper bite is getting stronger by the day. It'll

31
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,760
peak in June, so we're right in the sweet spot.

32
00:02:00,319 --> 00:02:04,040
Amberjack are still hanging around the recks too. Hotspots to

33
00:02:04,159 --> 00:02:08,080
check out. The edge near Alligator Reef in Islamorada has

34
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,840
been producing well for pelagics. For reef fish, try the

35
00:02:11,879 --> 00:02:15,639
area around Sombrero Key Light up in Miami. The edge

36
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,280
in a hunt twenty two hundred and eighty feet of

37
00:02:17,319 --> 00:02:21,439
water has been the ticket for kingfish and tuna. Remember, folks,

38
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,840
with the warmer weather, start your fishing early or fish

39
00:02:24,879 --> 00:02:28,039
into the evening for the best bite. The midday sun

40
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,520
has been slowing things down a bit. That's your report

41
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,360
for today, May twenty eighth. This is Artificial Lure saying

42
00:02:35,439 --> 00:02:38,240
tight lines and good luck out there. Don't forget to

43
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,560
send me your catch pictures. And that is it for today.
