    Tides today? Low at 4:15 AM risin' to high around 10:30 AM, then droppin' off by 5 PM—perfect for that outgoing flow pullin' baitfish into the strikes, just like Tides4Fishing charts show for these parts.

Sunrise hits 5:35 AM, sunset 5:55 PM—prime golden hours for topwater action.
    Fish are fired up!

Inshore, snapper limits on the half-days.
    Best lures? Yo-zuri crystal minnows or rapala x-raps in sardine or mullet patterns for roosters and snook—twitch 'em fast on the flats. For pelagics, circle hooks with rigged ballyhoo or live mullet can't miss. Offshore, cedar plugs or islander lures in blues and greens for mahi.
