Today, January 23, 2025, is shaping up to be a great day for fishing in the Florida Keys. Here’s what you need to know:

### Tides and Weather
The tides for Content Keys, Content Passage, are as follows: low tide at 2:53 AM, high tide at 8:15 AM, low tide at 1:27 PM, and high tide at 7:15 PM. Sunrise is at 7:10 AM, and sunset will be at 6:04 PM. The moonrise is at 1:58 AM, and moonset is at 12:51 PM. As for the weather, it's expected to be clear with mild temperatures, perfect for a day on the water.

### Fish Activity
The fishing has been consistently good in the Keys lately. Yesterday saw some exciting catches. Families and repeat clients had successful trips, catching a variety of species. Yellowtail Snapper were plentiful, with several trips bringing in over twenty of these delicious fish. Mutton Snappers were also on the menu, with some trips landing up to five for dinner. Sailfish were active as well, with one trip reporting a quad hookup and releasing five Sailfish in total.

### Best Lures and Bait
For Yellowtail Snapper, using live bait such as shrimp or small jigs is highly effective. For Mutton Snappers, try using live or frozen bait like sardines or pinfish. If you're after Sailfish, trolling with ballyhoo or using live bait like pilchards can be very successful.

### Hot Spots
Two hot spots to consider are the wrecks and the areas around Content Keys. The wrecks have been producing good numbers of Mutton Snappers and Amberjacks, while the open waters around Content Keys are great for Sailfish and other pelagic species.

### Recent Catches
On recent trips, families like the DeMunno and Sinn families had great success. The DeMunnos caught five Mutton Snappers and released five Sailfish on a 7-hour trip. The Sinn family caught over twenty Yellowtail Snappers and a large Amberjack. Captain Marty’s trips also reported multiple Yellowtail Snappers, Mutton Snappers, and an impressive catch of Sailfish.

With the current conditions and recent catches, today promises to be an excellent day to get out on the water and reel in some great fish in the Florida Keys.
