  • Summary

  • If you're planning to hit the waters of the Florida Keys today, November 16th, here’s what you need to know:

    ### Weather and Tides
    The weather is looking partly cloudy with temperatures hovering around 75 degrees, making it a perfect day for fishing. Expect some mild winds, especially in the afternoon, as cold fronts begin to roll through. Tides are moderate, with high tide at around 10:30 AM and low tide at 4:30 PM.

    ### Sunrise and Sunset
    Sunrise is at 6:43 AM, and sunset will be at 5:30 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to catch some great fish.

    ### Fish Activity
    Yesterday saw a lot of activity on the waters. Offshore, mahi-mahi were biting well, with several charters reporting good catches. Inshore, the flats were alive with snook and tarpon, taking advantage of the abundant baitfish stirred up by the recent winds.

    ### Types and Amounts of Fish
    Mahi-mahi were plentiful offshore, with some charters bringing in up to a dozen fish per trip. Inshore, snook and tarpon were the stars of the show, with multiple catches reported in the shallow waters. There were also reports of good-sized redfish and a few grouper caught near the reefs.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For offshore fishing, using live bait like ballyhoo or trolling lures such as spoons and jigs worked well for mahi-mahi. Inshore, live bait like shrimp and mullet were effective for snook and tarpon. For those using lures, soft plastics and topwater plugs were successful.

    ### Hot Spots
    One of the hot spots right now is the area around the reefs just off Key West, where the cooler waters are attracting a lot of baitfish and consequently, larger gamefish. Another good spot is the shallow flats around Islamorada, where snook and tarpon are feeding aggressively.

    Overall, it's a great time to be fishing in the Florida Keys, with plenty of action both inshore and offshore. Just be prepared for some windy conditions and enjoy the beautiful fall weather.
