  • Coastal California Fishing Forecast for January 12th: Tides, Bites, and Gear Tips
    Jan 12 2026
    Hey folks, Artificial Lure here, your go-to guy for Pacific Ocean angling off California's coast on this fine January 12th morning. Sunrise hit around 7:24 AM, sunset's at 5:12 PM—plenty of daylight to chase the bite. Weather's crisp and clear, typical winter chill with light winds, perfect for bundled-up launches.

    Tides today in spots like San Francisco and Pacifica show low activity with a coefficient of 37—expect a high around 5.7 ft at 6:15 AM, dropping to 0.7 ft mid-afternoon at 1:38 PM, then rising to 3.8 ft by 8:53 PM. Fish the incoming after noon when current picks up.

    Recent counts from SoCalFishReports and 976-TUNA are hot: Oxnard's Gentleman tallied 135 whitefish, 20 blue perch, 2 sculpin on a 3/4-day trip. Redondo Special limited 71 sand bass, 65 whitefish, 45 blue perch. San Pedro's Sport King nabbed a yellowtail, halibut, plus perch and bass. Dana Point saw sand bass and sculpin releases. Marina Del Rey boats hauled 530 fish including sculpin, whitefish, mackerel, calico bass. Pierpoint Landing got 366 with sand bass, even some bluefin tuna and yellowtail. Rockfish, lingcod, sheephead mixing in too—limits easy on half-days.

    Fish are active in 40-80 feet, schooling near structure. Best lures: green pumpkin Reaction Innovations Sweet Beaver on 1/2-oz weight for flipping, Yamamoto Senko wacky-rigged, spinnerbaits in shad/chartreuse, or Z-Man ChatterBait JackHammer. Bait-wise, scented PowerBait or mouse tails shine in murk, live mackerel for bigger eyes.

    Hit these hot spots: Channel Islands out of Oxnard for whitefish blowouts, or La Jolla kelp beds for calicos and perch. Rig light, stay safe out there.

  • California Pacific Coast Fishing Report: Winter Patterns, Hot Spots, and Bait Tips
    Jan 11 2026
    This is Artificial Lure with your California Pacific coast fishing report.

    Up and down the coast this morning we’ve got a classic winter pattern: cool, mostly clear, and light winds with a long-period swell. Offshore San Diego and LA have been seeing calm seas and “hardly a breath of wind, flat calm ocean” as the crews at 976-TUNA described yesterday. Air temps are running in the 50s at first light, warming into the 60s by mid‑day, so bring the layers.

    Sunrise is right around 7:20 on the Central Coast and a few minutes earlier down in San Diego, with sunset about 5:10–5:15, giving you a tight but productive window for those low‑light bites.

    Tides are middling today, not those monster winter swings. The San Francisco tide tables from Tides4Fishing and NOAA’s January chart show a pre‑dawn high followed by a late‑morning low and a modest evening bump, with overall coefficients on the low side. Down south, the tide‑forecast data for San Diego shows a similar pattern: a night or early‑morning high, dropping out mid‑morning, then building again in the afternoon. Plan to fish that last hour of outgoing into the first push of incoming—especially around structure and current seams.

    Recent action has been solid for winter. NorCalFishReports notes the Caroline out of Monterey running 11 anglers into 200 king mackerel, 400 sanddabs, and a couple of petrale sole yesterday—classic winter bottom and near‑surface mix. Emeryville crab boats have been stacking Dungeness, and National Fisherman highlights that the commercial Dungeness fishery has opened in parts of Northern California, so the crab are definitely in and filling pots.

    Down south, 976‑TUNA is reporting heavy mixed‑bag scores. Marina del Rey boats had over 500 fish yesterday, with big numbers of sculpin, whitefish, mackerel, rockfish, plus a shot of calico and sand bass. Pierpoint Landing counts showed triple‑digit sand bass and even a surprising 100‑plus bluefin tuna plus yellowtail and barracuda still hanging around the local banks—unseasonably good pelagic life for this time of year.

    Fish activity’s been best on those tide changes. Inshore, rockfish, whitefish, and sculpin are chewing on standard dropper loops with squid or shrimp strips. The LA‑Long Beach and Redondo boats are calling out squid and cut shrimp on dropper loops as the ticket for filling sacks with whitefish, sheephead, and bass. Up north, Monterey sanddabs are eating small cut baits or bits of squid on hi‑lo rigs, and the mackerel are piling on small metal jigs and sabiki rigs.

    For lures, keep it simple and natural.
    - For local kelp and hard bottom: 1–2 ounce leadheads with 4–5 inch swimbaits in sardine, anchovy, or brown bait patterns.
    - Around bait balls or bird life: small chrome or blue/white irons and Colt Sniper‑style jigs for mackerel and any bonus yellows.
    - Nearshore halibut drifts: slow‑rolled swimbaits or trap‑rigged anchovies on fish‑finder rigs.

    Best bait right now:
    - Squid strips, whole squid for the bigger models.
    - Cut anchovy or mackerel for rockfish and sand bass.
    - Fresh crab or clams in NorCal where legal if you’re playing with surf perch or poking around rocky pockets.

    A couple of hot spots to keep on your radar:

    - Monterey Bay: The area off the Monterey “Caroline line,” that 150–240 foot zone outside the harbor, has been hot for king mackerel and big scores of sanddabs. Look for the fleet, bounce hi‑lo rigs with small hooks and squid, and have a light jig ready for the macks.

    - LA / Long Beach local banks: The hard bottom outside the breakwalls and near horseshoe‑type structure is producing sand bass, sculpin, and the occasional winter yellow. Fish a dropper loop with squid tight to bottom, and if you mark suspended fish, send down a smaller jig or sliding egg‑sinker rig.

    If you’re shore‑bound, Ocean Beach and similar outer‑coast beaches around SF are worth a look around the lower water this afternoon, working sand crab imitations or Gulp sandworms for surf perch along the inside edges of the bars.

    That’s the word from the water. Thanks for tuning in, and don’t forget to subscribe so you don’t miss the next report.

  • Pacific Coast Fishing Report - Winter Bites, Crab Openings, and Productive Spots
    Jan 10 2026
    Name’s Artificial Lure, checking in with your Pacific-side California fishing report.

    Along the coast this morning we’ve got a cool, stable winter pattern: light offshore breeze early, then a mild west wind and a lazy chop by midday. Skies are mostly clear with a thin marine layer hanging near the beaches. According to Tide-Forecast’s central California table, we’ve got a pre-dawn low tide around 3 a.m. and a small morning high around 9:30 a.m., with another drop early afternoon and a modest evening push. Sunrise is right around 7:15, sunset about 5:20, so that first light bite and the last hour of sun are your money windows.

    Party-boat scores out of San Diego and Long Beach reported by 976-TUNA and H&M Landing show winter still packing a punch offshore: counts the last couple days included triple-digit bonito limits, a solid shot of bluefin tuna, plus a mix of yellowtail, barracuda, rockfish, whitefish, sculpin, and bass. That tells me the offshore water’s still got some life and the inshore structure bite is very much on.

    Nearshore from Point Loma up past Dana and into the LA/OC coast, rockfish, whitefish, sculpin, and sheephead are the staples. Best bet is a dropper loop with a 4–8 oz sinker, fishing squid strips, cut mackerel, or shrimp over hard bottom and wrecks in 80–180 feet. Those Marina Del Rey and Pierpoint-style reports have been calling out squid and shrimp on the loop as the producers, and that pattern holds true all along this stretch.

    Bass anglers working the kelp and boiler rocks are seeing a decent winter calico and sand bass pick on the tides, especially where you get a little current pushing bait into the edges. Go-to artificials:
    - 4–5 inch swimbaits in sardine or anchovy colors on 1/2–1 oz heads
    - Leadhead plus squid strips
    - Smaller jerkbaits and metal for mixed bass and bonito

    Up north, according to the California Department of Public Health and Fish and Wildlife, Dungeness crab is opening or about to open in chunks of the North Coast with some domoic-acid caveats. Crab-and-rockfish combos are the name of the game out of Bodega Bay and further north when weather allows, but there’ve been weather layups for some party boats the last week, so pick your window carefully.

    Fish activity today:
    - Morning: best for bass and rockfish on the first push of incoming.
    - Midday slack: slower, better for prospecting deeper stones or making bait.
    - Evening: quick burst of bass and maybe a few surface fish if the wind lays down.

    Productive lures and bait right now:
    - Rockfish/whitefish: dropper loops with squid strips, cut mackerel, or shrimp; 3–6 oz plastics or metal jigs in glow or root beer when current’s lighter.
    - Calico/sand bass: 4–6 inch swimbaits, 1–2 oz leadheads with whole squid, small yo-yo irons in scrambled egg or blue/white.
    - Bonito/any surface life: small Colt Snipers, Kastmasters, or similar chrome jigs, plus tiny feathers behind a sinker or planer.

    Couple of local hot spots to focus on:

    - La Jolla Kelp, San Diego: good winter structure spot for calico, sand bass, the odd yellowtail, and a pile of rockfish on the deeper outside edge. Work the hard edges of the kelp on the incoming tide with swimbaits and squid-tipped leadheads, then slide out deeper once the sun gets up for rockfish.

    - Horseshoe Kelp / Palos Verdes area: classic winter ground for bass, sculpin, whitefish, and sheephead. Hit the rock edges and hard bottom with squid on a dropper loop, and keep a smaller swimbait rod ready for bass that slide up on the chum.

    If you’re crabbing up north, mind the current health advisories on Dungeness viscera and check regs before you drop gear; limits and open zones have bounced around.

    That’s the word from the water. Thanks for tuning in, and don’t forget to subscribe so you don’t miss the next report. This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.
