  • Summary

  • For those eager to hit the waters around Los Angeles on January 26, 2025, here’s a detailed fishing report to help you make the most of your day.

    ### Tidal Report
    Today, the tides are favorable for beach fishing. The low tide is at 7:44 AM, and the high tide is at 2:04 PM. For beach anglers, the first two hours of the running tide, especially after low tide, are prime times as fish begin to move into the shallow areas to feed. If you prefer high tide, it's around 2:04 PM, where the deep water is closer to shore, making long casts unnecessary[5].

    ### Weather and Daylight
    The sunrise today is at 6:53 AM, and the sunset is at 5:17 PM, giving you about 10 hours and 24 minutes of daylight. This time of year, the weather is generally mild, but be prepared for cooler mornings and afternoons[2].

    ### Fish Activity and Catches
    Yesterday's fish counts from local boats provide a good indicator of what you might expect. In the San Pedro area, the Native Sun from 22nd Street Landing reported 1 sand bass, 8 halibut, 18 sculpin, and 7 halibut released on a 3/4 day trip. The Pride, also from 22nd Street Landing, caught 42 blue perch, 8 whitefish, 3 sargo, and 1 white seabass[3].

    In Marina Del Rey, the New Del Mar caught 6 sand bass, 120 sculpin, and 3 calico bass on a half-day morning trip. The Spitfire from the same area reported 7 sand bass, 60 sculpin, and 6 halibut released on a 3/4 day trip[3].

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For the species mentioned, using live or frozen bait such as anchovies, sardines, or squid can be very effective. Lures like plastic jigs, especially in white or clear colors, can mimic the baitfish that these species are feeding on. For halibut and white seabass, try using larger jigs or swimbaits that imitate a baitfish. For sculpin and blue perch, smaller jigs or even fly fishing gear can work well[3][4].

    ### Hot Spots
    If you're looking for some hot spots, consider the following:

    - **Venice Beach Pier**: Known for its variety of fish including halibut, barracuda, queenfish, and white ocean bass. It's free and open 24/7, making it a great spot for both day and night fishing[4].
    - **Marina Del Rey**: The waters around Marina Del Rey have been producing good numbers of sand bass, sculpin, and halibut. The New Del Mar and Spitfire boats have had successful trips here recently[3].

    With the right gear, knowledge of the tides, and a bit of luck, you should have a productive day fishing in the Los Angeles waters. Enjoy your time on the water
