Good morning, anglers! It's shaping up to be a fantastic day for fishing in Los Angeles on this beautiful September 7th. The tide is rising with a high at 12:15 PM, so expect increased fish activity around then. Our sunrise graced us at 6:33 AM, and we'll have a lovely sunset at 7:13 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to reel in your big catch.

The weather is cooperating nicely, with clear skies and a cool morning temperature of around 68°F, warming up to a comfortable 78°F by midday. Light winds blowing south-southwest at 6 mph will keep the waves calm, making for serene fishing conditions.

Reports from yesterday indicate a productive day for anglers, with plenty of action both off the piers and on the water. Folks fishing off Santa Monica Pier, Venice Beach, and Marina del Rey had exceptional success.

Yesterday saw a good haul of yellowtail, calico bass, and mackerel. Santa Monica Pier yielded some nice-sized mackerel and a few halibut caught using live bait. Over at Venice Beach, anglers reported catching a healthy number of surf perch and croaker, primarily in the early morning hours.

For yellowtail, anglers had the most success using sardines and mackerel as live bait. Calico bass were hitting on plastic jigs and swimbaits, with green color patterns seeing the best bite. As for mackerel, those little fighters were biting ferociously on sabiki rigs tipped with cut anchovy.

Here’s a couple of hot spots to consider today:

First up, head over to the breakwater in Marina del Rey. It's an excellent spot for catching rockfish, bass, and the occasional halibut. The advice is to use cut squid or anchovy as bait to entice those bottom dwellers.

Another great spot is the Venice Fishing Pier. Early morning and late afternoon are the best times to be there. Use shrimp or bloodworms to lure in perch and croaker. For a chance at bigger game, cast out live mackerel or sardines and you might hook into a bigger predator like a yellowtail or even a passing barracuda.

Remember to follow local regulations, keep an eye on your surroundings, and most importantly, have fun! Tight lines and happy fishing!

For those planning their setups, plastics and swimbaits worked like magic on the calico bass. A 3- to 5-inch swimbait in anchovy or sardine patterns yielded the best results.

A couple of hot spots worth visiting today are the Santa Monica Pier and the Palos Verdes Peninsula. The Santa Monica Pier has shown great potential for halibut and there's always a good crowd, which makes it a social spot as well.
