Broward and Miami offshore: the water and what the app weighs

Broward and Miami offshore is one of the five South Florida waters Anglrithm reads, each fished differently. The reefs and wrecks off Broward and Miami-Dade, the approach to the Gulf Stream and the runs out of Hillsboro, Port Everglades, Haulover and Government Cut. This page sets out what the app weighs here, where its data is weakest, the inlets and built-in spots in the region and the fish scored at them. The hour and the score are in the app.

What the app weighs here

  • Depth, reefs and wrecks
  • Satellite temperature breaks
  • Wind and seas for the run
  • The current and eddies

The layers and inputs that matter most in this water, as the chart names them. Every one carries its source and its age in the app.

Where the data is weakest

A reef survey says where the structure is, not where the fish are today; the score weighs the structure as one factor among the conditions.

The region is editorial, not a survey boundary: a spot near its edge is read from its own position, not from the region.

Inlets and passes

Built-in spots
