"March 12 Pacific Ocean Fishing Report: Halibut, Stripers, and Surf Perch Bite Strong"
Published 1 year, 1 month ago
Description
Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Pacific Ocean fishing report for March 12, 2025.
We've got a decent day ahead of us, with partly cloudy skies and temps in the mid-60s. Sunrise was at 6:15 AM and sunset will be at 7:05 PM. Tides are looking good - we've got a low tide at 8:45 AM and a high tide at 2:30 PM, giving us a nice window for some surf fishing.
The fish have been pretty active lately, especially in the early mornings and late afternoons. We've been seeing a lot of halibut, striped bass, and surf perch in the catches. A buddy of mine landed a 28-inch halibut just yesterday off Stinson Beach!
For you lure enthusiasts out there, I'd recommend trying out some swimbaits or paddletails in the 3-4 inch range. The Berkley Gulp Sandworm in camo color has been absolutely killing it for surf perch. If you're targeting halibut, try a white or chartreuse jerkbait.
For those of you who prefer live bait, sand crabs and ghost shrimp have been the ticket. The sand crabs are plentiful right now, so bring your scoops!
As for hot spots, Half Moon Bay has been on fire lately, especially for halibut. If you're looking for some good surf fishing, try Pacifica State Beach or Linda Mar. The jetty at Pillar Point Harbor has also been producing some nice catches.
Remember to keep an eye on the swells and stay safe out there. Tight lines, everyone!
