Artificial Lure here, bringing you the latest on Los Angeles area fishing for Tuesday, November 11, 2025. Let’s jump right into the essentials for anyone heading out with a rod and reel today. Tides are running in solid fall patterns. Per Tide-Forecast.com, you’re looking at a high tide at 3:45 AM pushing up to 3.98 feet, a moderate low tide at 7:56 AM of 3.29 feet, then another high at 1:37 PM at 4.92 feet, with the last ebb at 9:19 PM dipping just above zero at 0.04 feet. Sunrise came up at 6:21 AM and you’ve got daylight to fish through till sunset at 4:52 PM. That late morning through early afternoon incoming tide should stack fish on troughs and reefs—classic SoCal playbook. Weather-wise, it started off brisk, mid-50s, and should warm into the upper 60s inland with a slight Santa Ana offshore breeze, making for flat sea conditions and clear skies—ideal for both the surf and nearshore bite, based on the National Weather Service marine reports. Let’s break down the action. Offshore, it’s been about the bluefin and yellowtail—no exaggeration. 22nd Street Landing in San Pedro just capped a string of epic runs, with the boat “Freedom” bringing in limits of bluefin tuna for both passengers and crew, plus yellowtail, calico bass, and chunks of whitefish. Just check out last week’s counts: 32 anglers, 64 bluefin, 40 whitefish, and yellowtail in the mix. Pride and Pursuit boats had similar hauls with bonus sheephead, sculpin, and even a halibut caught, showing the seasonal variety is still holding along the shelf edges and kelp lines. Hotspots right now? Definitely put the Horseshoe Kelp on your list—legendary structure just outside the harbor, alive with wintering rockfish, calico, and the glancing school of yellows. Rocky Point’s been consistent too for those hunting sand and calico bass. If you’re shore-bound, Redondo Beach and the coves near Palos Verdes are seeing solid perch and the odd late corbina, particularly as the morning tide pushes in. As for what’s biting: rockfish are the bread and butter right now, thick on all the deeper reefs and gullies, with catches of salmon grouper, bocaccio, and red snapper reported last week by Monte Carlo. Sanddab numbers are holding strong too, a nice target for lighter outfits. Surf fishers on Mission Beach have had big perch mornings, especially using mussels for bait, with reports saying Gulp sand-worms were a bust but the real stuff had ‘em hitting hard. For tackle, live sardines or anchovies are always a ticket for bigger game—the sportboats carry plenty. If you’re chucking artificials, go with heavy colt sniper jigs or flat-fall style lures for deepwater bluefin. For bass and yellows, kelp cutters like swimbaits in anchovy or clear grunion patterns are proven winners. Bottom fishing? A dropper loop with a strip of squid or cut mackerel will put you right on the whitefish and sheephead. Don’t forget bait elastic for the perch and surf zone—keeps those mussels and ghost shrimp on tight. Quick gear tip: today’s moderate mid-morning tide swing will have bait pushing in and fish feeding, so be on the water from sunrise through noon if you want peak action.
