Sun and Moon
The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 11:0 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

Green and yellow areas indicate the best fishing times (major and minor). Blue areas indicate high and low tides. The center shows the current moon phase which is a Waxing Crescent at 5% lumination. According to the Solunar Theory, today is a excellent day for fishing, but you need to cross check this with the current weather forecast for a final decision. Currently we have a major fishing time. The next best fishing time ( ) starts in -7 hour and -24 minute. The gray time indicator displays the current local time.

For fishing, stronger tides are often favourable as they cause stronger currents and more motion on the sea bed. The above tidal coefficients give us an indication of how strong the tides are compared to their average. A value over 90 indicates very strong tides, known as spring tides. A low value indicates weak tides, known as neap tides. The tidal coefficient can range from 20 to 120 with a mean value of 70. A higher number usually indicates better fishing.

7 Day Fishing Weather
The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing. The graph below shows you the 3 hourly weather progression over the next 7 days. Scroll the graph left or right to see more.

October Fishing Report

October brings steady action around Del Monte Forest’s kelp edges and rocky points. Expect a mixed bag of rockfish, lingcod, and cabezon from kayaks and cliff-accessible ledges when the swell is manageable. Along sandy pockets and coves, surf anglers see pulses of barred/striped surfperch with the occasional California halibut holdover on calmer days.

Best bite windows are dawn and dusk, especially on a rising tide. Conditions trend fall-like: cool mornings with patchy fog, lighter winds early, and a building afternoon breeze; plan around a small-to-moderate west swell. Water temps hover in the mid-50s, so slower presentations can outproduce when the water cools and clears.

Effective offerings: 3–5 inch swimbaits (anchovy/sardine patterns) for rockfish and halibut; metal jigs and flutter spoons for suspended fish; squid strips on dropper loops for lingcod; and mole crab imitations or Gulp! sandworms for surfperch. Keep leaders abrasion-resistant near kelp and reef.

Top tip: When swell is down, target the edges of visible kelp lanes and foam lines at first light—cast parallel to the structure and retrieve slowly to stay in the strike zone longer.

Best Fishing Spots in the greater Del Monte Forest area

Wharf's or Jetties are good places to wet a line and meet other fishermen. They often produce a fresh feed of fish and are also great to catch bait fish. As they are often well lit, they also provide a good opportunity for night fishing. There are 2 wharf(s) in this area.

Fishermans Wharf - 5.38419344579km , Municipal Wharf Number 2 - 5.61944374708km

Beaches and Bays are ideal places for land-based fishing. If the beach is shallow and the water is clear then twilight times are usually the best times, especially when they coincide with a major or minor fishing time. Often the points on either side of a beach are the best spots. Or if the beach is large then look for irregularities in the breaking waves, indicating sandbanks and holes. We found 11 beaches and bays in this area.

Fan Shell Beach - 1.90470084705km , Moss Beach - 2.22024265258km , Spanish Bay - 3.11489689217km , North Moss Beach - 3.126534926km , Carmel Beach - 4.79167445382km , Carmel Bay - 5.20028864915km , Aeneas Beach - 5.29281607731km , San Carlos Beach - 5.34231392323km , Macabee Beach - 5.35603209244km , Del Monte Beach - 7.1620725582km , Monastery Beach - 7.64955044022km

Harbours and Marinas can often times be productive fishing spots for land based fishing as their sheltered environment attracts a wide variety of bait fish. Similar to river mouths, harbour entrances are also great places to fish as lots of fish will move in and out with the rising and falling tides. There are 2 main harbours in this area.

Monterey Harbor - 5.43430768235km, Monterey Marina - 5.50792823861km
