Hey y'all, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to fishing and angling expert right here in the Florida Keys and Miami scene. It's early morning on March 16th, and the water's callin'—let's dive into today's report.

Tides in Key West got low at 2:58 AM hittin' -0.09 feet, high at 9:31 AM to 1.05 feet, then low 2:34 PM at 0.22 feet, and evenin' high 9:17 PM to 1.59 feet—perfect for fish movin' on the flood. Miami Beach tides run similar, with highs around 2.6 feet early and peaks later pushin' 2.4 feet. Solunar action's average today per solunarforecast.com, major bites 2:56-4:56 AM and 3:26-5:26 PM, minors 8:51-9:51 AM and 11:06 PM-12:06 AM. Sunrise 7:11 AM, sunset 7:37 PM—hit those peaks hard.

Weather's pre-frontal, cold front comin' per YouTube's Weekly Bite, so offshore's firin' up before it hits. Bites are hot day and night, as Anthony Darna out of Miami says great action last few weeks.

Recent catches? Manny Sivina kite-fished a monster 66lb kingfish off Miami Beach three days back. Quality snapper limits from Vinnie Sacks in Fort Laud and Alek Fig's big group trips in Miami. Tuna pickin' up near Lake Worth says Jim Chiarenza, nice cobia on 4 J's jigs. JP McKay calls the bite on fire—whatever you want. Keys-style, expect snook, redfish, tarpon, trout, jacks, snapper, grouper, barracuda, blacktip sharks per Catchin In The Keys Charters.

Best lures: 4 J's jigs for cobia, kites for kings. Live bait like pilchards or shrimp rules for snapper and reef fish. Artificials? Soft plastics or DOA shrimp for inshore.

Hot spots: Miami Beach ledges for kings and snapper, or head to Islamorada reefs for grouper and variety.
