  • Summary

  • As of October 25, 2024, the Florida Keys are offering some fantastic fishing opportunities, making it an ideal time to get out on the water.

    ### Weather and Tides
    The weather is looking favorable with a light north breeze, which is typically good for targeting big snook and other species. Sunrise is at around 7:30 AM, and sunset will be at about 6:30 PM. Tides are moderate, with a high tide expected in the late morning and a low tide in the late afternoon, making the changing tides perfect for catching a variety of fish.

    ### Fish Activity
    Yesterday saw a lot of activity, particularly with snook, redfish, and tarpon. The fall bait run is in full swing, with plenty of mullet and other baitfish around, attracting larger predators. Anglers reported catching several big snook, some in the 10-15 pound range, and a few large redfish, with some weighing up to 25 pounds.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For snook, live bait such as pilchards or mullet is highly effective. For redfish, using jigs or spoons that mimic the baitfish in the area can be very productive. Tarpon are still active, and using large streamers or live bait like crabs or shrimp can yield good results.

    ### Hot Spots
    One of the hot spots right now is the backcountry areas around Islamorada, where the calm waters and abundant baitfish make it a haven for snook and redfish. Another good spot is the flats around Key West, where tarpon and permit are often found.

    Overall, the conditions are perfect for a day of fishing in the Florida Keys. With the right bait and a bit of luck, you could be in for a memorable day on the water. So grab your gear, and get ready to reel in some big catches.
