Artificial Lure here, bringing you your Los Angeles fishing report for Sunday, November 2nd, 2025. We kicked off the morning with high tide at 6:31 AM, stacking up to nearly 6 feet across the outer Harbor, with low tide swinging in at 12:51 PM, and the evening bringing another push at 6:51 PM around 5.3 feet, according to TidesChart. Be sure to time your casts for those outgoing and incoming tidal surges; that’s prime bite window territory in our local waters. Weather's been textbook SoCal—calm, flat seas, almost no wind, warm and clear. Sunrise painted the sky at 7:14 AM, and we're looking at sunset right around 5:59 PM. Conditions have been just about perfect all weekend, with yesterday seeing "gorgeous, beautiful weather" and barely a breath of wind, according to the 22nd Street Landing and Monte Carlo crews. Now let's talk fish counts and real-time action. Boats running from 22nd Street Landing had another banner run—Freedom returned with limits of bluefin for all on board, and just shy of 60 big calico bass landed by the Monte Carlo. The bottom is stacked with whitefish, sheephead, rockfish, and a handful of blue perch. The dropper loop rigs with pieces of squid and shrimp have been the MVP for those bottom grabbers—if you're fishing structure, drop one down and hold tight. Victory out of Long Beach wrapped up their trip with limits of sculpin, 49 calico bass, 103 blue perch, plus mackerel and whitefish. Action’s been steady all the way from the get-go, so if you’re looking for a mixed bag, that’s where you want to be. If you want specifics, here's the rundown from 22nd Street Landing's latest: - Bluefin Tuna: 64 landed on the Freedom’s last trip - Rockfish: 211 hauled up on the Native Sun - Ocean Whitefish: 80-plus taken overnight on the Pride - Yellowtail: 14 on the Pride, 15 on the Pursuit - Calico Bass: nearly 60 yesterday for Monte Carlo, 7-20 per trip on the longer runs - Sheephead, Sculpin, Barracuda, and Halibut also showing up in modest numbers Best baits right now: squid strips, live anchovies, and shrimp on dropper loops for bottom fishing. For the surface and near structure, try plastics that imitate anchovy or sardine—natural colors have been working great in the cleaner water. Bluefin and yellowtail are still smacking surface irons in mint and chrome patterns, especially when the tide's pushing. Hot spots right now: - San Pedro Outer Harbor, especially near the break walls—this is ground zero for both the bluefin bite and bass. - Marina del Rey jetties and the inshore reefs—prime for calico, sheephead, and whitefish. - If you’re on foot, check the points and holes around Santa Monica Bay in the twilight hours. A quick heads-up: don't forget to check local regulations—some areas have seasonal closures or size limits, so check before you keep. Thanks for tuning in to your Los Angeles fishing report.
