あらすじ・解説
As of November 14, 2024, the Pacific Ocean off the California coast is offering some exciting fishing opportunities. Here’s a rundown of what you can expect:
### Tidal Report
Today, the tides are relatively moderate, with a high tide at around 8:30 AM and a low tide at about 2:30 PM. These conditions are favorable for a variety of fishing spots.
### Weather
The weather is looking good, with clear skies and mild temperatures. However, be prepared for some breeze, especially in the afternoon, as winter winds start to pick up.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at 6:30 AM, and sunset is at 4:45 PM, giving you ample daylight to get out on the water.
### Fish Activity
Yesterday saw a lot of action across different regions. In Northern California, boats out of Berkeley and Emeryville had a great day catching Dungeness crab, with the California Dawn and Happy Hooker charters bringing in full limits of crab along with some lingcod and rockfish[2][5].
In Southern California, the Polaris Supreme returned from an 8-day trip with excellent catches of 25-50 pound yellowfin tuna, and later shifted to coastal fishing, catching halibut, pargo, and various bass species[4].
### Types and Amounts of Fish
- **Dungeness Crab**: Boats in the North Bay area were hauling in full limits, with the New Huck Finn and Sea Wolf charters each bringing in over 200 crabs[2][5].
- **Lingcod and Rockfish**: Several boats caught lingcod and a significant number of rockfish, particularly the Happy Hooker with 52 rockfish and 2 lingcod[4].
- **Yellowfin Tuna**: The Polaris Supreme had a successful run on yellowfin tuna, filling their well with 25-50 pound fish[4].
### Best Lures and Bait
For crabbing, live or dead sardina and squid strips are working well. For rockfish and lingcod, using jigs or lures that mimic baitfish can be effective. For yellowfin tuna, trolling with XRaps, Nomads, or using live bait like skipjack has been successful.
### Hot Spots
- **Berkeley and Emeryville**: These areas are hot for crab and rockfish combos, with multiple charters reporting full limits of crab and good catches of lingcod and rockfish.
- **Offshore Southern California**: The waters around San Diego are producing good catches of yellowfin tuna and other coastal species like halibut and bass.
Overall, it's a great time to get out on the water, whether you're targeting crab, rockfish, or the larger offshore species. Make sure to check the latest reports and adjust your gear and tactics accordingly.
