Catching Mahi, Kingfish, and Sailfish: Perfect Fishing Conditions in the Florida Keys and Miami

  • Summary

  • For November 23rd in the Florida Keys and Miami, the fishing conditions are looking excellent. Here’s what you can expect for your day on the water.

    **Weather and Tides:**
    Today, expect partly cloudy skies with a high of around 78°F and a gentle breeze out of the southeast at about 10 mph. Tides are favorable, with a high tide at 9:34 AM and a low tide at 3:34 PM. The calm seas and mild weather make it an ideal day for both offshore and inshore fishing.

    **Sunrise and Sunset:**
    Sunrise is at 6:49 AM, and sunset will be at 5:29 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to catch those elusive fish.

    **Fish Activity:**
    Yesterday saw a lot of action in the waters. Mahi Mahi, Kingfish, and Sailfish were biting aggressively. The Mahi Mahi were particularly active, with several catches reported in the offshore waters. Snook and Tarpon were also active in the flats, making for some exciting inshore fishing.

    **Types and Amounts of Fish Caught:**
    There were numerous reports of Mahi Mahi catches, with some boats bringing in up to a dozen fish per trip. Kingfish were also plentiful, especially around the reef areas. Sailfish were spotted and caught in good numbers, especially during the morning hours. Inshore, Snook and Tarpon were biting well, especially in the backcountry and flats.

    **Best Lures and Bait:**
    For offshore fishing, use lures like jigs and spoons to attract Mahi Mahi and Kingfish. Live bait such as ballyhoo and pilchards worked well for Sailfish. Inshore, live bait like shrimp and mullet were effective for Snook and Tarpon. For those targeting Snook, soft plastic lures and topwater plugs also produced good results.

    **Hot Spots:**
    One of the hot spots for today is the reef areas just off the coast of Key Largo, where the Kingfish and Mahi Mahi have been biting consistently. Another great spot is the backcountry around Islamorada, where the Snook and Tarpon are plentiful in the flats and mangrove channels.

    Overall, it's shaping up to be a fantastic day for fishing in the Florida Keys and Miami. Make sure to check your gear, grab the right bait, and head out early to make the most of these perfect conditions.
