Hey amigos, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to fishing guru right here in sunny Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, comin' at ya with the fresh report for April 4th, 2026, at 3 AM local time. Waters are warm around 71 degrees, perfect for spring action—fish are bitin' steady after some solid catches down south.
Tides today? Low at dawn around 5:30 AM, risin' strong by noon, peak high about 4 PM—prime for incoming currents pullin' in the predators. Weather's a dream: mostly sunny, light breeze from the southwest at 5-10 knots, temps climbin' to 82°F daytime. Sunrise hits 6:45 AM, sunset 7:15 PM—plenty of light for those all-day hunts.
Fish activity's hot! Recent boats like Mission Belle out of nearby spots report 23 yellowtail up to 25 lbs, 45 bonito, rockfish, lingcod, and even sculpin on half-days. Locals haulin' in roosterfish, jack crevalle, snapper, and dorado offshore—limits easy on good days. Sierra mackerel tearin' up the bays too.
Best lures? Yo-yo jigs in chrome or sardine patterns for yellowtail, rapalas or poppers for surface strikes on roosterfish. Tady lures shinin' for the big ones. Live bait kings: sardines, mullet, or caballito on circle hooks—can't beat 'em for snapper and jacks.
Hit these hot spots: El Faro lighthouse rocks for inshore roosters at first light, and Los Arcos marine park for yellowtail and snapper—troll deep there. Gear up light, 20-30 lb test, and watch the birds.
