As of October 26, 2024, the fishing scene in the Florida Keys and Miami is looking promising, despite the lingering effects of tropical systems in the area. ### Weather and...
show more### Weather and Tides
The weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of 78 degrees Fahrenheit and a low of 70 degrees. Tides are crucial today, with the high tide at around 10:30 AM and the low tide at 4:30 PM. These tidal changes will likely influence fish movement and feeding patterns.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at 7:30 AM, and sunset will be at 6:30 PM, providing ample daylight for both morning and afternoon fishing trips.
### Fish Activity
Yesterday saw a lot of action in the Keys and Miami waters. Snook were particularly active, especially around the inlets and near the shorelines, where they tend to ambush feed as the water temperature drops. Kingfish are also closer to shore, following the bait schools that are migrating southward. Other species like mahi-mahi, snappers, and kingfish are still abundant, despite the rough seas associated with the hurricane season.
### Catches
Several black drum, sheepshead, and even some trout and pompano were caught yesterday. The snook bite has been strong, especially in the back country and around the jetties.
### Best Lures and Bait
For snook, using live bait such as shrimp or mullet near the inlets and points with current is highly effective. Kingfish can be targeted with spoons or live bait while trolling closer to shore. For mahi-mahi and tuna, trolling with big baits like Speedos or large lures, and ensuring a wire leader, is recommended.
### Hot Spots
- **Haulover Inlet**: Known for its strong snook activity, especially during tidal changes.
- **Key Biscayne**: The beaches and shorelines here are great for catching kingfish and snook as they follow the bait schools.
Keep an eye on the weather, as tropical systems can still impact fishing conditions. However, the days leading up to a storm can see increased fish activity, making for some excellent fishing opportunities. Enjoy your day on the water
