Sun's up at 7:04 AM, sets at 5:39 PM per Tides4Fishing charts, and tides are risin' now—hit low at 8:06 AM around 0.2 ft in Key West, high comin' 2:43 PM at 1.2 ft. Solunar's average today, moon rose 6:52 AM southeast, sets 5:20 PM southwest, so peak bites 'round dawn and dusk. Weather's classic winter Keys—cooler temps in the 60s, light winds from the NWS marine forecast, keepin' water chilly at 65-70 degrees. Fish are active inshore despite the bite from cold snaps; recent Captain Experiences reports from Key Largo and Islamorada show limits of yellowtail snapper, lane snapper, reds, snook, sea trout, barracuda, jacks, and even mahi offshore. Jensen Beach logs mixed bags of sheepshead, flounder, bonefish—those speed demons showin' up north of us too. SpaceFish notes trout hammerin' MirrOlure mirror lures, black drum on flats, pompano in the mix. Best lures right now? Rapala Shadow Rap jerkbaits for twitchin' trout in 2-4 feet—they dive and suspend perfect for winter specks. Strike King Hybrid Hunter crankbaits matchin' shiners for edges of grass. Punch thick hydrilla with Swamp Lord frogs in brown/black or Strike King Poppin’ Pad Perch. Live bait? Shiners or shrimp on flats; crabs for sheepshead. Hit these hot spots: Islamorada flats for bonefish and trout at first light, or Key Largo backcountry patches for snapper and snook—tides pullin' strong today. Bundle up, fish the incoming, and you'll load the box. Thanks for tunin' in, folks—subscribe for more Keys action! This has been a Quiet Please production, for more check out quietplease.ai.
