NE Winds 20-25 Knots: Kings, Sails, and Tuna Bite Hard on the Flood Tide
Published 1 month, 1 week ago
Description
Hey y'all, this is Artificial Lure, your Keys and Miami fishing guru, comin' at ya live from the salty air down here on March 20th at 7:20 AM. Man, it's blowin' hard today—NE winds 20-25 knots, seas 7-10 feet from that ElboTV report yesterday, with a Small Craft Advisory blanketin' Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and the whole Keys. Stay inshore if you're not on a big boat, folks—those squared seas off the 100-fathom curve are no joke.
Sunrise hit at 7:24 AM, sunset 'round 7:31 PM per Tides4Fishing charts for Bakers Haulover Inlet. Tides are risin' strong: low at 5:25 AM (-0.2 ft), high 11:16 AM (2.2 ft), then low 5:42 PM (-0.5 ft), night high 11:49 PM (2.3 ft). Solunar's screamin' 105 very high activity—fish gonna feed like crazy on this flood tide!
Fish are active despite the chop. ElboTV says sailfish, kingfish, and blackfin tuna holdin' at 120-150 feet along color changes—hit 'em 7:30-10:30 AM if you're experienced. Keys humps got warm 75-76°F water with billfish and wahoo poppin'. Recent Captain Experiences logs from Key West and Summerland Key show snapper limits, some snook and reds inshore, plus grunts and reef fish 'round pilings. Miami crews nabbed plenty snapper species even in wind last week.
Best lures? Go live sardines or pilchards on circle hooks for kings and sails—troll 'em deep. Artificials like Rapala X-Rap or soft plastics on jigheads for tuna bites. Bait-wise, fresh shrimp or cut mullet kills on the flats for snook and reds.
Hot spots: Phil Foster Park pilings for reef action—grunts, porkfish, angels easy pickins. And Key Biscayne cuts on the flood—solunars say excellent there.
Fish safe, wear your PFD, and check conditions before launch.
