# Florida Keys & Miami Fishing Report
Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure coming to you with your Wednesday morning fishing update for the Florida Keys and Miami area.
Let's start with the conditions. We've got some excellent tidal windows opening up today. Here in Key West, we're looking at a high tide at 4:44 AM—which just passed—with a low at 8:08 AM and another high coming in around 3:25 PM. Over in the Elliott Key area near Biscayne Bay, expect a high at 4:35 AM and lows throughout the day. These moderate tides are perfect for working the shallow flats and channels.
Sun's already up—we had sunrise at 7:25 AM down in the Keys, and we're looking at a 7:41 PM sunset, giving us a solid 12+ hours to work with.
Now, the fishing's heating up as we head into late March. Recent reports from guides working Punta Gorda and Cape Coral show the inshore bite starting to pick up with warmer weather moving in. Snook, red grouper, gag grouper, and mangrove snapper are all being caught consistently. We're also seeing tarpon activity ramping up—guides are actively targeting them with excellent success rates.
For lures and bait, you'll want live shrimp and mullet for snook and snapper. Tarpon will crush live mackerel and pinfish. Topwater lures in the early morning and late evening hours are producing well on snook around mangrove edges. Work darker colors in the murky water we've been having.
Two hot spots to hit: First, the shallow flats around Cape Coral—snook are absolutely loaded in there right now. Second, work the channels between the Keys heading toward Hawk Channel—that's where your tarpon are staging with this spring migration.
