  • Tides, Bites & Lures: Artificial Lure's Pacific Coast Fishing Intel

    Tides, Bites & Lures: Artificial Lure's Pacific Coast Fishing Intel
    Feb 18 2026
    # Artificial Lure's Wednesday Morning Fishing Report

    What's up, anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Pacific coast fishing intel for the week ahead.

    **Tides and Conditions**

    We're looking at excellent tidal movement along the California coast right now. San Francisco's seeing a very high tidal coefficient at 96, with high tides around 5:7 feet and lows dropping to negative territory. Over at Ocean Beach on the outer coast, conditions are similarly strong with that same 96 coefficient pushing good water movement. If you're heading to Santa Barbara, expect high tides around 5:4 feet mid-week. The sunrise is hitting around 6:55 AM and sunset near 5:53 PM, giving you a solid ten-hour window to get out there.

    **Recent Action**

    Word from the landings is that bass and bonito are biting solid right now. H&M Landing just reported some great weather and good numbers coming in on their boats. The conditions we're seeing should keep fish active through the next week as these strong tidal swings bring baitfish into the feeding zones.

    **Lure Selection**

    For artificials, you want to dial in your setup. Keep your main line at 10 to 20 pound braid—it gives you casting distance and that critical feel for topwater work. Run fluorocarbon leaders, especially with suspending plugs, so your lure stays at the right depth. The Heddon Zara Puppy is a killer three-inch baitfish pattern that'll draw strikes from largemouth, smallmouth, and other gamefish when they're feeding on smaller baitfish.

    **Hot Spots**

    Get down to Ocean Beach on the outer coast or check out the San Francisco bay structure. Both locations are experiencing excellent tidal activity that'll concentrate fish in predictable spots.

    Get out there and tight lines! Thanks for tuning in—make sure you subscribe for daily reports. This has been a Quiet Please production. For more, check out quietplease.ai.

  • California Coastal Fishing Report: Tides, Weather, and Biting Fish

    California Coastal Fishing Report: Tides, Weather, and Biting Fish
    Feb 16 2026
    Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to guy for Pacific Ocean angling from NorCal to SoCal. It's Monday morning, and the water's callin' with tides4fishing.com showin' a solid setup around San Francisco: low at 4:16 AM hittin' 2.5 feet, peak high at 10:16 AM reachin' 6.0 feet, then droppin' to -0.6 feet by 4:57 PM, and night high at 11:54 PM near 4.9 feet. Coefficient's 83—high activity, so fish are feedin' strong 'round the changes, especially that incoming tide mid-mornin'.

    Sunrise kicks at 6:57 AM, sunset 5:51 PM per tides4fishing charts—plenty daylight to chase 'em. Weather's got some surf up, with NWS warnin' of rip currents and breakers along Santa Barbara coasts through Wednesday, so watch your step on the beaches. Ocean Beach tides match close: low 3:41 AM at 2.55 feet, high 9:31 AM at 6.13 feet from tide-forecast.com.

    Fish action's pickin' up after winter slow—norcalfishreports.com notes limits quick at spots like Rancho Seco, but offshore, we're seein' juvenile Chinook salmon pushin' strong toward the Pacific per California WaterBlog, growin' fat in floodplains before hittin' the blue. Surf casters report perch, calico bass, and occasional halibut in the foam; boat guys haulin' rockfish and lingcod steady. Numbers are decent—5-trout days trolled recent, translatin' to 10-20 fish limits pierside if you time it right. Types hot now: perch, bass, salmon smolts, and lingcod.

    Best lures? Yakima Rooster Tails in white—pulsatin' hackle tail spins up strikes on anything gamey. Rapala Rippin' Rap lipless crankbaits for rippin' through kelp or grass, flutterin' deadly on the drop. Bait-wise, live anchovies or sardines rule, mudshrimp for perch. Mixed minnow kits work freshwater bleed-over too.

    Hit Ocean Beach for surf perch—cast at the high tide rip. Or La Jolla Cove rocks for bass, but mind the surf. Stay safe out there.

  • Crisp February Fishing in Cali: Ocean Beach Action, Perch Hauls, and Offshore Yellowtail

    Crisp February Fishing in Cali: Ocean Beach Action, Perch Hauls, and Offshore Yellowtail
    Feb 15 2026
    Hey folks, Artificial Lure here, your go-to guy for Pacific Ocean angling off California's coast. It's a crisp February morning, sun rising around 6:59 AM at spots like Ocean Beach, setting at 5:50 PM—perfect window for some action before the chill sets in.

    Tides4fishing reports rising water today at Ocean Beach Outer Coast: low at 3:05 AM (2.8 ft), high at 8:45 AM (6.1 ft), then low 3:51 PM (-0.5 ft), high 10:40 PM (4.8 ft). Fish the incoming high around 8-11 AM when they're feeding hard—solunar activity's high with a 72 rating.

    Weather's typical winter mild, light swells, no big storms per recent Coast Guard updates, but watch for rips. Water temps comfy for cold-blooded critters chasing comfort zones.

    Fish are biting! Friedman Adventures' YouTube briefing from yesterday nailed it: epic perch hauls at Sunset Beach and Surfside, including hard perch, 10+ inch barred perch, walleye perch, and a monster 17-inch spotted bay bass right on the sand. 976-TUNA fish counts from Feb 13 show solid trips—64 sand bass, 17 sculpin, 13 calico bass kept, tons released, plus rockfish and yellowtail runs offshore from San Diego landings like Seaforth and H&M. Activity's hot on perch and bass in the surf, calicos and rockfish deeper.

    Rig up with Berkley PowerBait Pre-Rigged Swim Shad—scent holds 'em 18x longer. Top lures: Heddon Super Spook for stripers and chargers, or ELBFANG crankbaits diving 1.5m for perch and bass. Live bait? Sand crabs or bloodworms on a Carolina rig for surf perch.

    Hot spots: Sunset Beach at Pacific Coast Highway and Anderson—perch paradise. Hit Ocean Beach jetties for calicos on the tide shift, or offshore San Clemente Island for yellowtail if you're boating out.
