Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to guy for all things rods, reels, and reels of fish tales down here in the Florida Keys and Miami waters. It's early morning on April 2, 2026, and the action's heatin' up as we shake off the cool front.
Weather's lookin' prime: mostly sunny with highs in the low 80s, light southeast winds at 5-10 knots, perfect for flats skiffin'. Sunrise kicked off at 7:12 AM, sunset's 7:48 PM—plenty of light for chasin' tails. Tides are risin' strong; high at 10:23 AM around 2.1 feet in Key West, low at 4:47 PM, pushin' baitfish into the mangroves per NOAA charts.
Fish are fired up post-winter—schools of tarpon rollin' in from the Atlantic, showin' silver flashes on the edges. Recent catches? Snook limits off Miami's Government Cut, fat mangrove snapper stacks on the reefs, and trophy bonefish pushin' 8 pounds on the Keys flats, say locals at Bud N' Mary's. Grouper's hot in 60-foot patches, and permit teasin' jiggin' crews.
Best lures: **MirrOlure MirrOdine** suspended twitchin' for snook, or **DOA TerrorEyz** soft plastics on a 1/4-oz jighead for snapper. Live bait kings it—pinfish or shrimp under a float for everything, pilchards chunked for grouper.
Hit these hot spots: **Hen and Chickens Reef** for deep-water pelagics, or **Florida Bay's Rabbit Key** flats for bones at incoming tide.
Stay safe, wear your PFD, and respect the no-wake zones.
