LA Fishing Report: Solid Tide Action, Mixed Bag Bites, Gear Recommendations for Calicos, Halibut, and More
About this episode
# Artificial Lure's LA Fishing Report
Hey folks, Artificial Lure here with your Sunday morning fishing breakdown for the Los Angeles area.
**TIDES AND CONDITIONS**
We're looking at solid tide action today. High tide hit at 8:21 AM with a peak of 6.17 feet, and we've got a low coming in at 3:38 PM around minus 0.87 feet. That's a decent swing for structure fishing. Sunrise was at 6:56 AM and we're looking at a 5:10 PM sunset, giving you plenty of daylight to work with.
**WHAT'S BEEN BITING**
Looking at the dock reports from yesterday, the Long Beach and San Pedro boats were putting fish in the box. Victory out of Long Beach landed 14 sand bass, 100 sculpin, 16 blue perch, 6 calico bass, and 123 whitefish on a three-quarter day with 20 anglers. That's solid mixed action. Over in San Pedro, the Native Sun brought in sand bass, halibut, sculpin, and calico bass. Down in Dana Point, the Clemente released some quality calico bass, which tells me they're around and aggressive.
**GEAR RECOMMENDATIONS**
For swimbaits, the Rapala Claptail 110 in Night Aurora is pulling fish in these waters. But honestly, you can't go wrong with five-inch paddle tail swimbaits—proven producers. For jigs, try bottom sweepers and AVA jigs in these rocky zones. Grumpy's Tackle has solid options if you need to stock up.
**HOT SPOTS**
Long Beach Harbor and San Pedro are firing right now with that mixed bag of sculpin, bass, and perch. The reef structure around Dana Point is holding quality calico bass and some halibut.
