      <title>Tahiti Dry Season: Trevally in the Lagoon, Yellowfin Outside the Reef</title>
      <description>This is Artificial Lure checking in with your Tahiti fishing report.

Out here around Tahiti and Moorea, we’ve got classic dry‑season conditions: light to moderate trade winds, mostly clear skies, and a modest southeast swell. Mornings are calm, with a bit more breeze and chop building after lunch. Air temps are sitting in the upper 20s Celsius, water around 27–28, perfect for both lagoon and offshore runs.

Tides today are on the smaller side, but there’s still enough movement to matter. The early‑morning incoming and the late‑afternoon outgoing are your prime bite windows. That first push of water onto the reef edges has been switching the fish on, especially in the passes, and the last two hours of the falling tide have been firing for topwater in the lagoon.

Sunrise came in just before 6, with sunset a little after 5 in the evening, so your power hours are 5:30–8:30 a.m. and 3:30–sunset. Midday can be slow on the flats, so use that time to work deeper channels, passes, or head outside the reef.

Inshore, the lagoon has been giving up good numbers of **bluefin trevally**, lagoon **GTs**, **jobfish**, and plenty of **goatfish** and small **snappers** for the table. Recent trips around the Faa’a and Punaauia reef edges have seen boats coming back with half a dozen trevally in the 2–6 kilo range, plus a mixed bag of reef fish. Around Mahina and Papenoo, the inside reef has produced a few bigger GTs, with one or two 20‑kilo‑class fish landed this past week on heavy stickbaits.

Offshore, boats running outside the barrier reef toward the Taapuna and Paea passes, and across to Moorea, have been into **yellowfin tuna**, **skipjack**, and the odd **mahi‑mahi**. Anglers trolling early have reported several yellowfin in the 10–25 kilo range on a typical half‑day, with occasional bigger fish smashing lures near the drop‑off. A couple of small **blue marlin** have been tagged and released off the west side in the last few days, reminding everyone to keep at least one heavier setup in the spread.

For lures, inside the lagoon the hot ticket has been medium‑sized **stickbaits** and **poppers** in natural baitfish or blue‑white patterns, along with 40–60 g **metal jigs** worked along channel edges. Soft plastics on 3/8 to 1/2 oz jig heads in shrimp or minnow patterns have been deadly on goatfish and smaller snappers. Offshore, run a spread of **skirted lures** in purple‑black, lumo green, and pink‑white; small feathers and cedar plugs are still doing work on skipjack and school‑sized yellowfin.

For bait, you can’t beat fresh **small bonito**, **sardines**, or **squid**. Chunked or live baits slow‑trolled along the outer reef line have out‑fished dead, frozen stuff. Inshore, strips of fresh fish on small circle hooks are pulling bites from everything that swims, especially around coral heads on the dropping tide.

A couple of local hotspots for you:

- The **Taapuna Pass and outer reef**: work the incoming tide on the inside for trevally, then slide just outside the reef line with lures or bait for tuna and mahi once the sun is up.

- The **Vaiare Channel and north side of Moorea**: good current, clean water, and regular life—tuna, skipjack, and the occasional marlin, plus solid reef action on the edges.

That’s it from Artificial Lure here in Tahiti. Thanks for tuning in, and don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss a report.

      <title>Tahiti Dry Season Hot Bite: Trade Winds, Tuna, and GTs on the Reef Passes</title>
      <description>This is Artificial Lure with your Tahiti fishing report.

Out here around Tahiti and Moorea, we’re waking up to classic dry‑season trade‑wind weather: easterly breeze around 10–15 knots, small to moderate swell, and mostly clear skies with a few passing showers riding the trades. Air temps are sitting in the upper 20s Celsius, and the lagoon is bathtub warm.

Sunrise slid in just after 6 a.m., with sunset coming a bit after 5:30 p.m., giving us a nice, compact feeding window at both ends of the day. The morning high tide lined up close to sunrise with a solid push of water over the reef passes, and we’ll see a falling tide through late morning before another build toward evening. Those tide changes at the passes are the key—slack water has been slow, moving water has been hot.

Offshore, the outer drop‑offs north of Papeete and along the west side toward Paea have produced good numbers of yellowfin tuna and skipjack this week, with a few mahi and the odd marlin in the mix. Charter skippers have been doing best running small to medium skirted lures in blue/white, green/yellow, and lumo colors around birds and bait schools. Darker skirts have worked when clouds roll over. A few boats have reported double‑ups on 10–20 kg yellowfin when the current really starts to roll on the morning tide.

Closer in, the reef edges and passes are alive. Around Taapuna Pass and the Faa’a airport reef, dogtooth and GTs have been hammering topwater and fast‑worked metal jigs on the first light high. Bring big poppers in blue or black, stickbaits with a bit of flash, and 60–100 g jigs in silver or pink for working the drop‑off. Expect bruiser reef fish—GTs, bluefin trevally, and big red bass—so don’t come under‑gunned.

Inside the lagoon, the inshore bite has been steady but picky during midday. Early and late, you can pick off bluefin trevally, small GTs, and emperors on soft plastics, bucktail jigs, and small hardbaits fished along current lines and channel mouths. Natural bait like fresh bonito strips, squid, or local sardines drifted near the passes has been outfishing artificials for mixed reef species and smaller tunas sliding inside with the tide.

For pure bait fishing, grab the freshest stuff you can: bonito chunks for tuna and mahi, squid strips for reef dwellers, and live small baitfish if you can sabiki them around the lights at night. Fish those on simple running rigs near the reef edge where the clean ocean water meets the lagoon blue.

A couple of hot spots to circle on your mental chart:  
• The reef pass and outer slope off Taapuna on the west coast—great for GTs on top early and pelagics just outside the drop.  
• The passes around Moorea’s north side—especially where the tide rips through in the morning—for tuna and mahi working the bait.

Timing is everything here: fish the first couple hours of the flood and the start of the ebb, and keep an eye on birds, bait, and color changes in the water. When that clear blue pushes hard against the reef, things light up in a hurry.

      <title>Tahiti Lagoon Fire: Mahi, Trevally, and Perfect Tide Windows This Morning</title>
      <description>Artificial Lure here with your Tahiti fishing report.

Out on the big lagoon and outer reef this morning, we started under a calm sky: light trade winds from the east around 10–15 knots, a gentle chop on the lagoon, and clearer blue water on the reef edge. Air temps are hovering in the upper 70s to low 80s, humidity high, but the breeze keeps it comfortable. Clouds are scattered, with a chance of a brief squall rolling off the ocean later this afternoon.

Sunrise came in early over Moorea’s shoulder and the first good bite lined up with the morning high tide, which peaked not long after first light. We’ve got a falling tide through late morning, then a modest low early afternoon, before it fills again toward sunset. That dropping water pushed bait off the shallows and really turned on the reef edges and passes.

Near the passes of Papeete and Paea, boats working the drop-offs found solid action on **mahi-mahi**, **wahoo**, and a few nice **yellowfin tuna** hanging deeper. Several boats reported multiple mahi in the 10–20 pound class, and at least a couple of wahoo pushing past 30 pounds. Yellowfin have been a bit scattered, but patient crews chunking and live-baiting around the current lines scratched out a handful of fish in the 25–40 pound range.

In the lagoon and inside the reef, the **GTs (ulua)** and **bluefin trevally** are active on the moving tide, especially around bommies and channel mouths. Shore casters and kayak anglers picked up a mix of trevally and **jobfish** in the low double digits overall, with plenty of follows and blowups even when they didn’t connect. Reef anglers soaking bait on the deeper edges also found **parrotfish** and **goatfish** for the table.

Lure-wise, the offshore crews did best pulling medium to large skirted trolling lures in blue/white, green/yellow, and pink over the 200–1000 meter line, especially along temperature breaks and bird activity. A couple of boats switching to deep-diving plugs and metal jigs around bait balls picked off extra yellowfin when the surface bite slowed.

Inshore, topwater is king right now. Big stickbaits and poppers in natural mullet and flying-fish patterns lit up the GTs at dawn and on the evening push. When the sun got high, downsizing to 60–90 mm stickbaits, sub-surface minnows, and 1–2 oz metal jigs produced more consistent hookups, especially for bluefin trevally and jobfish. For bait, fresh cut bonito, squid, and small live reef fish pinned near structure continue to be the most reliable options.

If you’re planning a session, timing it around the tide changes is the move: first light through mid-morning on the outgoing, then again late afternoon as it starts to fill. Wind may stiffen a bit later, so morning boats should have the better conditions; evening shore casting along the west side will benefit from that sunset silhouette and cooling temps.

A couple of local hot spots to keep in mind:
- The **Taapuna and Paea passes** on the west coast: great current lines, regular mahi and wahoo outside, and strong trevally action just inside the reef.
- The **Faa’a airport reef edge and drop-off**: consistent for trevally, jobfish, and the occasional tuna cruising close, especially on the falling tide.

If you’re heading out, fish smart, respect the reef, and keep an eye on the weather and the tide.

      <itunes:summary>Artificial Lure here with your Tahiti fishing report.

Out on the big lagoon and outer reef this morning, we started under a calm sky: light trade winds from the east around 10–15 knots, a gentle chop on the lagoon, and clearer blue water on the reef edge. Air temps are hovering in the upper 70s to low 80s, humidity high, but the breeze keeps it comfortable. Clouds are scattered, with a chance of a brief squall rolling off the ocean later this afternoon.

Sunrise came in early over Moorea’s shoulder and the first good bite lined up with the morning high tide, which peaked not long after first light. We’ve got a falling tide through late morning, then a modest low early afternoon, before it fills again toward sunset. That dropping water pushed bait off the shallows and really turned on the reef edges and passes.

Near the passes of Papeete and Paea, boats working the drop-offs found solid action on **mahi-mahi**, **wahoo**, and a few nice **yellowfin tuna** hanging deeper. Several boats reported multiple mahi in the 10–20 pound class, and at least a couple of wahoo pushing past 30 pounds. Yellowfin have been a bit scattered, but patient crews chunking and live-baiting around the current lines scratched out a handful of fish in the 25–40 pound range.

In the lagoon and inside the reef, the **GTs (ulua)** and **bluefin trevally** are active on the moving tide, especially around bommies and channel mouths. Shore casters and kayak anglers picked up a mix of trevally and **jobfish** in the low double digits overall, with plenty of follows and blowups even when they didn’t connect. Reef anglers soaking bait on the deeper edges also found **parrotfish** and **goatfish** for the table.

Lure-wise, the offshore crews did best pulling medium to large skirted trolling lures in blue/white, green/yellow, and pink over the 200–1000 meter line, especially along temperature breaks and bird activity. A couple of boats switching to deep-diving plugs and metal jigs around bait balls picked off extra yellowfin when the surface bite slowed.

Inshore, topwater is king right now. Big stickbaits and poppers in natural mullet and flying-fish patterns lit up the GTs at dawn and on the evening push. When the sun got high, downsizing to 60–90 mm stickbaits, sub-surface minnows, and 1–2 oz metal jigs produced more consistent hookups, especially for bluefin trevally and jobfish. For bait, fresh cut bonito, squid, and small live reef fish pinned near structure continue to be the most reliable options.

If you’re planning a session, timing it around the tide changes is the move: first light through mid-morning on the outgoing, then again late afternoon as it starts to fill. Wind may stiffen a bit later, so morning boats should have the better conditions; evening shore casting along the west side will benefit from that sunset silhouette and cooling temps.

A couple of local hot spots to keep in mind:
- The **Taapuna and Paea passes** on the west coast: great current lines, regular mahi and wahoo outside, and strong trevally action just inside the reef.
- The **Faa’a airport reef edge and drop-off**: consistent for trevally, jobfish, and the occasional tuna cruising close, especially on the falling tide.

If you’re heading out, fish smart, respect the reef, and keep an eye on the weather and the tide.

      <title>Tahiti Early Dry Season: Dawn Tides and Offshore Pelagics</title>
      <description>This is Artificial Lure with your Tahiti fishing report.

We’re sitting in a classic early‑dry‑season pattern around Tahiti and Moorea. Trade winds are settled in from the east–southeast, blowing moderate most of the day with lighter spells early morning and late afternoon. Skies have been partly cloudy with the usual quick tropical showers rolling off the mountains, but plenty of sun between squalls. Air temps are warm and sticky, sea surface sitting in the upper 20s Celsius, perfect for both reef and offshore action.

First light is easing in just after 5:00 a.m., with sunrise soon after, and the sun dropping behind Moorea around 5:30 to 6:00 p.m. That gives you two strong windows: grey‑light dawn and the last hour before dark. Tides swing twice a day here; expect a decent morning incoming pushing up along the reefs, then another push late afternoon. On the rising water, bait stacks tight to the reef edges and passes, and that’s when things really wake up.

The offshore bite has been solid. Local skippers running out of Papeete and Marina Taina have been into good numbers of **mahi‑mahi**, scattered **yellowfin tuna**, and some **wahoo** along the current lines and FADs southwest and west of Tahiti and between Tahiti and Moorea. A few **blue marlin** and the odd **sailfish** have been raised on the troll, nothing ridiculous, but enough to keep the lures honest. Boats are coming back with a mixed box: a handful of tuna in the 10–25 kg range, a couple of mahi per crew, and the lucky ones hanging a wahoo or a billfish tag.

Best lures offshore right now are medium to large skirted lures in blues, greens, and lumo, run on the short and long corners for marlin and bigger tuna. For mahi and wahoo, smaller jet heads and bullets in pink/white or blue/silver are doing damage, especially when worked fast along the edges of weed lines or bird life. If you’re live‑baiting, a bridled small bonito or skipjack slow‑trolled around the FADs can be deadly on marlin and big yellowfin.

Inshore, the lagoons and outer reefs have been lively. Lagoon fishermen and spearos around Tahiti Nui and Tahiti Iti have been finding **parrotfish**, **goatfish**, **jobfish** (tarao), and smaller **trevally** on the reef flats, with bigger **GTs** and **bluefin trevally** hunting the drop‑offs and passes when the tide is pumping. Night sessions on the reef edges are turning up decent **snapper** and **jacks**.

For bait, you can’t beat fresh: small pilchards, cut bonito, or squid fished near the reef passes. On artificials, topwater stickbaits and poppers in natural baitfish colors work great over the reef ledges and bommies at first light, especially around passes where the whitewater meets the blue. Soft plastics on jig heads, worked along the bottom on the inside edge of the reef, will pick off goatfish and smaller reef dwellers all day.

A couple of hot spots if you’re heading out:

• The passes and outer reef edges around **Passe de Taapuna** on Tahiti’s west side: good for trevally, jacks, and reef species on an incoming tide, and a quick run to deeper water if you want to chase tuna and mahi off the drop.

• The channel between **Tahiti and Moorea**, especially around the FADs southwest of Tahiti: strong pelagic action when the current and birds line up, with regular catches of mahi, tuna, and wahoo.

Work the dawn incoming tide on the reef, then slide offshore mid‑morning when the sun is higher and you can spot birds and color changes. Wrap your day back on the reef at sunset with a popper or a bit of fresh bait, and you’ve got the full Tahiti package.

      <title>Tahiti Early Dry Season: Mahi, Tuna, and Wahoo on the Neap Tide Bite</title>
      <description>This is Artificial Lure with your Tahiti fishing report.

We’re sitting in a classic early‑dry‑season pattern around Tahiti and Moorea. Light trades this morning, building to a moderate easterly breeze this afternoon. Skies are partly cloudy, with a quick shower possible on the windward side, but leeward waters stay mostly fair. Air temps are running mid‑20s Celsius overnight, about 29–30°C by mid‑day. Lagoon visibility is good where the swell is down; outside reefs have a bit more chop once the trades pick up.

Tides today are on a smaller, neap‑style swing. Expect a low just after dawn and a rising tide through the morning, topping out late morning to early afternoon, then easing back toward another low in the evening. That push of incoming water through the passes is your prime window.

Sunrise came just after 6 a.m., with sunset just before 6 p.m. Your best bite windows are:
- First light through mid‑morning on the **flood tide**
- Last light on the evening **ebb**, especially near passes and reef points

Fish activity has been solid the last few days. Local skippers working the drop‑offs between Tahiti and Moorea report steady **mahi‑mahi** on current lines and debris, with a few **yellowfin tuna** mixed in. Wahoo have been showing on the outer reef edges when the light is low, and the offshore banks have given up scattered **dogtooth tuna** on deep jigs.

In the lagoons and nearshore reefs, anglers have been picking up **bluefin trevally**, **GTs**, and decent **jobfish** at the pass mouths on the morning tide. Around the bommies, there’s been good action on **parrotfish** and smaller reef species for the table when the current softens.

For lures offshore, run:
- Medium‑size **skirted lures** in blue/white, green/yellow, and purple/black for mahi, tuna, and wahoo
- **Diving minnows** and high‑speed metal heads along the reef edge for wahoo
- **80–200 g jigs** dropped deep for dogtooth and bottom fish

Best natural baits:
- Fresh **skipjack**, bonito, or saury strips
- Whole or chunked **sardines** and small mackerel
Slow‑trolled live bait near the reef drop‑off will tempt wahoo and big trevally.

Inside the lagoon and passes, stick to:
- 40–80 g **casting jigs**, stickbaits, and poppers in natural baitfish colors
- Soft plastics on 3/8–1/2 oz jig heads for reef edges and channel drop‑offs

A bit of pink or chartreuse on your lures helps in the lagoon’s clear water, especially under bright midday sun.

A couple of hot spots to work hard today:
- **Taapuna Pass (Tahiti west side):** Focus on the incoming tide along the channel edges for trevally and jobfish; outside drop‑off early and late for wahoo and tuna.
- **Temae and Afareaitu side of Moorea:** Reef drop‑offs and current lines just outside the passes for mahi and tuna, with GTs patrolling the pass mouths at dawn and dusk.

Fish smart: watch the birds, look for color changes in the water, and time your drifts with the tide. Keep an eye on wind against current—short, steep chop can build fast on the outer reef.

      <title>Tahiti Early Dry Season: Trevally, Tuna, and Perfect Lagoon Conditions</title>
      <description>This is Artificial Lure with your Tahiti fishing report.

Around Tahiti and Moorea today we’ve got classic early dry-season conditions: light trade winds from the east-southeast, 10–15 knots, with a passing shower here and there but mostly blue skies and good visibility on the reefs. Seas outside the reef are running about 1–1.5 meters, with calmer water in the lagoons. Air temps are sitting around the high 70s to low 80s, and the water is a warm 27–28°C, perfect for both reef and offshore action.

Sunrise came in just after 6 a.m., with sunset a little after 5:30 p.m. That gives us prime low-light windows at first and last light, and that’s when the fish have been the most active. Tide is running a mid-morning high dropping toward an afternoon low, which means the outgoing tide at the reef passes is pushing bait off the lagoon edge and waking up the predators.

Inshore, the lagoon and outer reef have been producing steady numbers of bluefin trevally, smaller GTs, and coral trout, with some nice emperor and jobfish mixed in. Local skiffs working poppers and stickbaits over the drop-offs have been reporting a half-dozen quality trevally in a morning, plus a few missed heart-stopping strikes from bigger GTs that didn’t stick. On bait, anglers soaking fresh squid or cut bonito along the channel edges are picking up goatfish, jacks, and the odd snapper for the table.

Offshore, the FADs and drop-offs beyond the reef have been the main story. Charter crews out of Papeete and Punaauia have found good numbers of mahi-mahi and yellowfin tuna in the 10–25 kilo range, with the occasional bigger fish pushing 40 kilos. There have also been a few wahoo and small marlin encounters on the deeper edges. Boats dragging small to medium skirted lures in blue/white, pink, and lumo green, plus jetheads around the FADs, have been coming back with two to five pelagics on a decent day when they stay on the bait and birds.

Best lures right now inshore are medium surface poppers in natural baitfish or blue/white, slim stickbaits worked fast over the reef crest, and 40–80 gram metal jigs dropped along the pass walls. Soft plastics on 1/2–1 oz jig heads in white, pearl, or chartreuse are taking trout and emperors when bounced near coral heads. For bait, fresh squid strips, small live fusiliers or sardines, and chunks of bonito are hard to beat; the fresher the better.

Offshore, run skirted trolling lures between 6 and 9 knots around the FADs early, then switch to live or chunked bait once you mark fish deeper on the sounder. A live bait bridled just outside the FAD can be deadly for larger tuna and wahoo. Keep a spinning rod rigged with a heavy stickbait or fast jig—casting into busting tuna schools has been turning lookers into takers.

A couple of local hot spots to focus on:

• The Taapuna Pass area on Tahiti’s west side. Work the outgoing tide along the pass edges and outer reef with poppers and jigs for GT, bluefin trevally, and jobfish. Early morning here can be explosive.

• The passes and drop-offs off Temae and Vaiare on Moorea’s east side. Good current lines form there, drawing bait, and boats have been finding mahi and tuna just beyond the reef, with solid trevally action on the inside.

Plan your sessions around first light and the start of the tide changes, keep your leaders stout around the reef, and you’ll give yourself a real shot at something that pulls drag.

      <title>Tahiti Dry Season Bite: Mahi, Tuna, and Trevally in the Passes</title>
      <description>This is Artificial Lure, checking in with your Tahiti fishing report.

Out here around Tahiti and Moorea, we’re sitting under that classic dry-season pattern: light to moderate trade winds from the east–southeast, seas a bit lumpy outside the reef but calm and glassy in the lagoons early. Skies are mostly clear with passing showers on the windward side, just enough to cool things off. Air temps hovering in the high 70s to low 80s, water temps around 27–28°C, perfect for pelagics cruising the drop-offs.

Sun rose just after 6 this morning, and sunset will be a little after 5 this evening, so your prime bite windows are that first hour of light and the last 90 minutes before dark. The reef really wakes up right after sunrise; the offshore bite has been better on the morning tide change.

Tides around Tahiti today are running moderate, not extreme. Expect a low in the early morning with a decent flood pushing in late morning, and another ebb toward late afternoon. That incoming tide has been the key: cleaner water pushing over the reef and bait balls stacking along the passes.

Offshore, the blue water outside Papeete and along the Faa’a to Paea drop-off has been productive. Local captains report good numbers of **mahi-mahi**, small to mid-size **yellowfin tuna**, and the odd **wahoo**. A few boats have raised **blue marlin** in the 150–250 kg class over the past week, with more consistent action on smaller billfish closer to Moorea’s outer banks.

For lures offshore, stick with:
- Medium-sized skirted lures in green/yellow, pink/white, and purple/black.
- Bullet heads and jet heads for wahoo and tuna run a little deeper.
- If the tuna are on small bait, switch to smaller feathers and cedar plugs trolled a bit faster.

Nearshore and on the reef, the lagoon edges and passes have been lively. Spearos and light-tackle anglers have reported:
- Good numbers of **bluefin trevally (tue-tue)** and **giant trevally (uru)**.
- Plenty of **goatfish**, **parrotfish**, and **snapper** species for the table.
- On calmer evenings, **bonefish** and small **jacks** on the flats around the motu sandbars.

Best reef and inshore options:
- Topwater stickbaits and poppers in natural baitfish patterns for GT and bluefin trevally along the drop-offs at first light.
- Soft plastics on 3/8 to 1/2 oz jig heads worked along channel edges for snapper and goatfish.
- For bait, fresh **bougna** (local sardine), squid strips, or small mullet chunks do the job. Fresh, not frozen, makes a big difference here.

Two hot spots to focus on:
- **Taapuna Pass** on Tahiti’s west side: incoming tide at dawn for trevally smashing bait on the surface, with the chance of a dogtooth tuna if you work the deeper edges.
- The **north and northwest drop-offs off Moorea**, accessible by charter: troll skirts along the 100–300 m line for mahi and tuna, then work any bird piles or floating debris you find.

If you’re fishing from shore, try the rocky points near Paea and the small wharfs in the evening; fish light leaders, small metal jigs or 3–4 inch soft plastics, and let the lure swing in the current.

      <title>Tahiti Trevally Fire: Trade Winds Turn On the Reef Passes and FAD Lines</title>
      <description>This is Artificial Lure with your Tahiti fishing report.

Out here around Tahiti and Moorea we’ve got classic trade‑wind weather this morning: light clouds, good sun, and a steady easterly breeze around 10–15 knots. Air temps are sitting in the upper 20s Celsius, the lagoon is warm and clear, and the outside reef edge has a bit of chop but very fishable.

First light cracked just after 5:30 a.m., with sunrise a little before 6. Sunset will be just after 5:30 p.m. The best bite has been in that grey light—half an hour before sunrise and again late afternoon into dusk.

Tides today are running a medium range with a morning high around mid‑morning and a falling tide through the early afternoon. That outgoing water has really been turning on the reef passes and the channel mouths, pushing bait out and stacking predators on the edges.

Offshore, the bluewater crews working the FADs east of Tahiti and between Tahiti and Moorea have been doing well on yellowfin tuna in the 15–40 kilo class, with the odd bigger fish mixed in. A few dorado and wahoo have also come over the rails in the cleaner water lines. Skippers report better action once the sun is up a bit and the chop puts some texture on the surface.

Inside the lagoon and along the reef, there’s been steady action on trevally—bluefin and bigeye—plus dogtooth tuna on the deeper drops, and plenty of reef hunters: jobfish, emperors, and coral trout. Around the bommies, smaller trevally and snapper have been chewing hard on the turn of the tide.

For lures, the hot producers offshore have been medium‑size skirted lures in pink‑white, lumo, and purple‑black, run short and tight to the prop wash. Swimbaits and metal jigs dropped around the FADs are also finding tuna when they’re sounder‑marked but not coming up. Closer to the reef, casting stickbaits and poppers in natural mullet or flying‑fish colors are drawing violent strikes from GTs and big bluefin trevally when worked fast across whitewater.

If you prefer bait, slow‑trolled or drifted bonito strips and small skipjack have been deadly on wahoo and larger tuna offshore. In the lagoon, fresh shrimp, squid strips, and small chunks of sardine or local baitfish on light fluorocarbon leaders are fooling snapper, goatfish, and smaller trevally, especially around structure on the dropping tide.

Two hotspots to keep in mind:  
• The passes on the north side of Tahiti, where the outgoing tide piles bait along the drop‑off—great for casting poppers at trevally and running live or dead baits for dogtooth.  
• The channel between Tahiti and Moorea, especially near the FAD lines—prime territory for trolling skirts at first light and late afternoon for tuna and wahoo.

Overall fish activity is good with the stable weather and regular trades. Focus your efforts around tide changes, keep an eye out for birds working, and don’t be shy about changing lure colors until you crack the pattern.

• The passes on the north side of Tahiti, where the outgoing tide piles bait along the drop‑off—great for casting poppers at trevally and running live or dead baits for dogtooth.  
• The channel between Tahiti and Moorea, especially near the FAD lines—prime territory for trolling skirts at first light and late afternoon for tuna and wahoo.

Overall fish activity is good with the stable weather and regular trades. Focus your efforts around tide changes, keep an eye out for birds working, and don’t be shy about changing lure colors until you crack the pattern.

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Report: Light Trades, Prime Passes, and Steady Reef Action This Week</title>
      <description>Ia ora na, this is Artificial Lure with your Tahiti fishing report.

Out on the reefs and just outside the passes this morning we’ve got light trade winds, mostly easterly around 10 to 15 knots, with a gentle swell and good water clarity in the lagoons. Skies are partly cloudy, so there’s enough sun to light up the reef edges but still give some shade for the fish to stay active through mid‑day. Air temps are sitting in the high 20s Celsius, warm but not brutal yet.

Sunrise came early, just before 6, and sunset will be just after 5 in the evening, so your prime bite windows are that first hour of light and the last hour before dark. Around those times, the reef lights up — that’s when you want to be on your favorite bommie or working the mouth of a pass.

Tide today is running a moderate range with a good push of water on the incoming. Here, that incoming tide is gold, especially at the passes. When the ocean water pours in, it drags in bait and wakes up the predators. Aim to fish the last half of the incoming and the start of the outgoing for the strongest current and best action.

Recent action around Tahiti and Moorea has been solid. Inside the lagoon, anglers have been picking up **bluefin trevally**, **GTs**, **jobfish**, **goatfish**, and plenty of **parrotfish** and **wrasse** on bait and small jigs. Just outside the barrier reef, boats trolling the drop‑off are seeing **mahi‑mahi**, **wahoo**, **yellowfin tuna**, and the occasional **sailfish** and **marlin** when the current lines stack up. The numbers haven’t been crazy, but steady: a handful of tuna per morning for the dedicated boats, scattered wahoo bites on the ledges, and school‑size mahi under birds and floating debris.

Best **lures** right now:  
- For the lagoon and reef edges, small to medium stickbaits and poppers in **blue‑white, sardine, or mahi patterns**. Walk them fast over the drop from 2 to 10 meters.  
- Soft plastics on 3/8 to 1/2‑ounce jigheads, in natural baitfish colors, are doing well on trevally and jobfish around coral heads.  
- Offshore, run a spread of **skirted lures** in purple‑black, pink‑white, and green‑yellow around 6 to 8 inches. Add one diving plug or a heavy feather down the middle for wahoo.

Best **bait**:  
- Fresh **squid**, **small bonito strips**, and **live or fresh sardines** are hard to beat.  
- On the reef, a simple rig with a bit of shrimp, squid, or cut goatfish will keep you busy with reef species and often pull a surprise trevally.  
- For tuna and mahi, chunking with small cubes of bonito and drifting a live bait back into the slick still puts fish in the boat.

Two local **hot spots** to think about:  
- **Pass of Papenoʻo** on Tahiti’s east side. Work the edges of the pass on the incoming tide for GTs and bluefin trevally, and drop deeper jigs along the outer wall for jobfish and snapper. Outside the pass, troll the drop in 80 to 200 meters for wahoo and tuna.  
- **Taapuna Pass** on the west side near Punaauia. The outer reef edge here can fire at dawn and dusk for trevally on topwater. Just beyond the break, slow‑troll baits or small skirted lures for tunas running the contour.

Fish activity should pick up again late afternoon as the heat backs off. If you can only fish a short window, hit that last light with a topwater in hand, posted on the up‑current side of a pass or bommie.

That’s the scoop from Artificial Lure here in Tahiti. Thanks for tuning in, and don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss a report.

      <title>Tahiti Trade Winds: Mahi, Dogtooth, and Dawn Light Bite</title>
      <description>This is Artificial Lure with your Tahiti fishing report.

Around Tahiti and Moorea, we’ve had classic trade-wind conditions: steady east–southeast breeze, 10 to 18 knots, passing clouds, warm and humid. Seas outside the reef are running 1.5 to 2 meters with a bit of chop, but the lagoon stays manageable if you tuck in behind the reef. Sunrise is just after 6 in the morning, sunset just before 6 in the evening, giving a tight window of prime low-light feeding time.

Tides today run a modest range. The morning incoming pushes clean ocean water over the reef edge and into the passes, then eases into a midday slack before draining back out late afternoon. On days like this, the best bite usually lines up with the last hour of the rising tide and the first hour of the fall, especially where current squeezes through the cuts.

Offshore, the pelagics have been active. Local captains out of Papeete and Marina Taina have been seeing good numbers of mahi-mahi along the current lines, with a few yellowfin tuna mixed in and the odd wahoo crashing the spread. Most boats trolling the outer drop-off are reporting several mahi per trip, 5–10 kilo fish common, with the occasional bigger bull. Skirted lures in green–yellow, blue–silver, and pink, run at staggered distances, are doing the damage, along with small jet heads. A rigged ballyhoo or bonito strip, if you can get it, is still dynamite on the tuna.

Closer to the reef edge, dogtooth tuna and GTs have been lurking where the current hits the outer wall. Jigging 80–150 gram metal jigs in blue or sardine patterns, dropped along the drop-off and ripped back fast, is pulling strikes from dogtooth and big bluefin trevally. For casting, stickbaits and poppers in natural baitfish colors, or white with a red head, are solid choices. Work them over the deeper bommies just outside the breakers.

Inside the lagoon, the bonefish and mixed reef species have been steady. On the sandy flats of the north and west coasts of Tahiti, and around Moorea’s shallows, early morning tailers have been showing when the wind is down. Light jigheads with small shrimp imitations, or live shrimp if you can source them, are the go-to. For the reef mix—goatfish, emperors, smaller trevally—simple is best: bits of squid or fresh fish on small hooks, drifted along channel edges and coral heads.

A couple of hot spots to keep in mind:

- The passes and outer drop-off near Paea and Papara on the southwest coast. Work the tide changes there for GTs and dogtooth on jigs and poppers, and run a couple of skirts just outside the drop for mahi and tuna.

- The passes around Moorea’s north coast. Early morning troll for pelagics just beyond the reef, then slide inside to cast soft plastics and small plugs along the channel edges for trevally and reef fish.

Overall fish activity has been best at dawn and the late-afternoon change. Midday, the sun and wind can slow things, so either go deep with jigs or tuck into shaded structure in the lagoon.

      <title>Tahiti Early Dry Season: Reef Passes and Offshore Pelagics Heat Up</title>
      <description>This is Artificial Lure with your Tahiti fishing report.

Out here around Tahiti and Moorea, we woke to light trades and a gentle swell on the outer reef. The air is warm and humid, with a mix of sun and passing cloud, classic early dry‑season weather. Sunrise came early over the lagoon, and sunset will drop fast behind Moorea, so daylight is generous but the best bites are still low‑light: first light to mid‑morning and again late afternoon into dusk.

The tide is running a typical mid‑cycle today, with a decent incoming push through the reef passes in the morning, then easing and turning to an outgoing in the afternoon. That flood tide through the cuts is what you want for dogtooth, GTs, and bait stacking on the drop‑offs. On the outgoing, look for fish to slide deeper along the outer ledges and channel edges.

Offshore, boats working the drop from Faaa and Paea out to the FADs have been into good numbers of pelagics the last few days. Crews are reporting yellowfin tuna in the 10–30 kilo class, skipjack, and scattered mahi‑mahi, with the occasional wahoo and billfish. The more consistent boats are trolling small to medium skirted lures in purple‑black, lumo green, and blue‑silver, plus jet heads pulled a bit deeper. Rigged ballyhoo or bonito strips are also taking fish when they’re picky.

On the reef edges and passes, the action has been solid. Jigging and live‑baiting the outer walls are producing dogtooth tuna, bluefin trevally, and the odd giant trevally. Metal jigs in the 80–150 gram range in pink, blue, and natural sardine colors are working well, especially dropped right on the up‑current side of structure and ripped back fast. Poppers and big stickbaits are still the kings for GTs: think white, bone, and mackerel patterns chugged hard along the whitewater and current lines.

In the lagoon and inshore, locals are picking up coral trout, emperors, and smaller trevally on soft plastics and small diving plugs. Fresh bait always wins here: chunks of bonito or small reef fish, squid strips, and live sardines or fusiliers pinned on a simple running rig. For those fishing from shore, a medium popper or a 20–40 gram casting jig worked along the channel mouths at dawn can still surprise you with a serious trevally.

A couple of hot spots to keep in mind:

• The passes and outer drop‑offs off Papenoo on the north side: strong current, bait, and a real chance at dogtooth and GT when the tide is pushing in.  
• The reef edge and drop‑off between Paea and Mataiea on the southwest coast: good for wahoo and tuna on the troll, plus jigs and live baits fished along the slope.

If you’re heading out, match your lures to the water: bright and flashy when the sun is high and the water clear, more natural and darker backs early, late, or when clouds roll in. Keep leaders heavy around the reef—those teeth and coral heads don’t forgive.

Crews are reporting yellowfin tuna in the 10–30 kilo class, skipjack, and scattered mahi‑mahi, with the occasional wahoo and billfish. The more consistent boats are trolling small to medium skirted lures in purple‑black, lumo green, and blue‑silver, plus jet heads pulled a bit deeper. Rigged ballyhoo or bonito strips are also taking fish when they’re picky.

On the reef edges and passes, the action has been solid. Jigging and live‑baiting the outer walls are producing dogtooth tuna, bluefin trevally, and the odd giant trevally. Metal jigs in the 80–150 gram range in pink, blue, and natural sardine colors are working well, especially dropped right on the up‑current side of structure and ripped back fast. Poppers and big stickbaits are still the kings for GTs: think white, bone, and mackerel patterns chugged hard along the whitewater and current lines.

In the lagoon and inshore, locals are picking up coral trout, emperors, and smaller trevally on soft plastics and small diving plugs. Fresh bait always wins here: chunks of bonito or small reef fish, squid strips, and live sardines or fusiliers pinned on a simple running rig. For those fishing from shore, a medium popper or a 20–40 gram casting jig worked along the channel mouths at dawn can still surprise you with a serious trevally.

A couple of hot spots to keep in mind:

• The passes and outer drop‑offs off Papenoo on the north side: strong current, bait, and a real chance at dogtooth and GT when the tide is pushing in.  
• The reef edge and drop‑off between Paea and Mataiea on the southwest coast: good for wahoo and tuna on the troll, plus jigs and live baits fished along the slope.

If you’re heading out, match your lures to the water: bright and flashy when the sun is high and the water clear, more natural and darker backs early, late, or when clouds roll in. Keep leaders heavy around the reef—those teeth and coral heads don’t forgive.

      <title>Tahiti Dry Season: Trevally, Tuna, and Perfect Light Windows</title>
      <description>This is Artificial Lure with your Tahiti fishing report.

Out here around Tahiti and Moorea we’ve got classic dry‑season conditions: light trade winds out of the east‑southeast, generally 10 to 15 knots, seas around 1 to 1.5 meters outside the reef, and lagoon water staying clear and calm in the mornings. Skies are mostly sunny with a few trade‑wind clouds stacking on the windward side in the afternoon. Air temps are running mid‑20s to around 30°C, with the lagoon feeling like a warm bath.

Sunrise is coming just after 6 a.m., with sunset a little before 6 p.m., so you’ve got a nice long, even tropical light window. The best bite has been the classic low‑light slots: first light through about 8 a.m., and then again from 4 p.m. to dark, especially when that lines up with a moving tide.

Tides on the barrier reef passes are giving us a good push of incoming water in the mornings and a stronger outgoing in the afternoon. That incoming tide is stacking bait on the outer edges of the passes and the outgoing is firing up the inside drop‑offs and reef points. When you see that clean blue ocean water rushing into the lagoon, that’s your signal to get serious.

Offshore, the boats working the drop‑off have been into solid pelagics. Anglers are reporting good numbers of yellowfin tuna in the 15–40 kg class, scattered bigeye, and a few nicer dogtooth tuna around the outer points and seamounts. Blue marlin and the occasional striped marlin are still cruising the deep, with a mixed pick of mahi‑mahi and wahoo along current lines and FADs. Some crews are returning with half a dozen tuna plus a mahi or two on a decent day, and the lucky ones are hanging a billfish tag before heading back to Papeete.

Best offshore offerings have been medium‑size skirted trolling lures in purple‑black, blue‑silver, and lumo green, worked around the 1000–2000 m line. For tuna and mahi, small to medium feathers, cedar plugs, and jet‑heads in pink, blue‑white, or green‑yellow have been hot. Chunking or live‑baiting with small bonito or flying fish around the FADs remains deadly when the sun gets high and the troll bite slows.

On the reef and in the lagoon, the coral heads and drop‑offs are holding bluefin trevally, giant trevally, jobfish, and a steady mix of reef predators. Shore and small‑boat anglers have been picking off trevally in the 3–10 kg range, with the odd bruiser GT testing knots and nerves. Triggerfish, emperors, and smaller reef species are filling coolers for the table.

For lures, topwater is king here: stickbaits and poppers in natural baitfish and white, 40–100 g, worked fast over the outer reef edges and around the mouths of the passes. Subsurface, metal jigs and heavy soft plastics in 40–80 g, in sardine or anchovy patterns, are pulling fish from deeper ledges. Bait anglers are doing well on fresh squid strips, cut bonito, and live sardines or small fusiliers, especially when fished on the edges of current or just down‑current of the passes.

Two hotspots to keep on your radar:  
First, the passes off the east side of Tahiti Nui where the incoming tide pushes clean water and bait into the lagoon. Work those passes at dawn with poppers and stickbaits for trevally, then slide a bit wider and troll skirts along the drop‑off for tuna and mahi.  
Second, the passes and outer reef around Moorea’s north and northwest sides. The channels there funnel bait, and the current lines just outside the reef have been holding mahi and wahoo, with GTs patrolling the corners for careless baitfish.

If you’re heading out, focus on moving water, clean blue‑green edges, and any bird life. Keep your lure spread simple, run at least one darker skirt in the pattern, and don’t be afraid to switch to bait when the sun is high.

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Report: Trades Settled, Pelagics Hot, Reef Action Peak at Dawn and Dusk</title>
      <description>This is Artificial Lure with your Tahiti fishing report.

Out here around Tahiti and Moorea the trades are settled in: light to moderate east–southeast wind, seas a gentle chop on the reef tops, a bit more roll outside the passes. Skies are partly cloudy with the usual squalls riding the breeze. Air is warm and sticky, water hovering around the low 80s, perfect for keeping the fish active most of the day.

Sun came up not long after six and it’ll slip behind Moorea late in the afternoon, so your real bite windows are the first couple hours after dawn and the last two before dark. The lagoon is clear on the leeward side, a little milky on the windward reefs where the swell is wrapping around.

Tides are running a modest range today, with a decent incoming through the morning and a softer outgoing this afternoon. Around the passes that incoming pushes clean ocean water over the reef edge and fires up the predators; the outgoing concentrates bait outside the drop-off.

Pelagic action has been solid the last few days. Local skippers working the FADs off the northwest of Tahiti and between Tahiti and Moorea have been picking up good numbers of mahi-mahi, smaller yellowfin, skipjack, and the odd wahoo. A few nice billfish have shown but not wide open. Best producers have been small to mid‑size skirted lures in blue–silver, green–yellow, and pink, trolled a bit faster when the wind picks up. If you’re live‑baiting, small bonito or frigate mackerel slow‑trolled along the current lines are still king for big tuna and marlin.

On the reef and lagoon side, the dogtooth and GTs have been chewing when the current hits the points. Poppers in white or bone, and stickbaits in natural flying‑fish or mullet patterns, are drawing violent strikes early and late. Mid‑day, tone it down with subsurface stickbaits or jigs worked along the drop-offs and bommies. Fresh squid or cut bonito pinned to a strong circle hook and dropped in the wash will tempt big jobfish, snapper, and the occasional reef‑side tuna.

Inside the lagoon, the goatfish, smaller trevally, and reef snapper are keeping the light‑tackle crowd happy around coral heads and channel edges. Soft plastics in shrimp or small baitfish colors, and little metal jigs hopped near the bottom, have outfished hardbaits when the sun gets high. For bait, you can’t beat fresh shrimp, bits of squid, or small hermit crabs gathered on the flats.

A couple of hot spots to mark on your chart:

• The passes and outer reef edges off Papeete and Faa’a, especially where the incoming tide pours over the drop. Work poppers and stickbaits along the foam lines, or troll skirted lures just outside the color change for tuna and wahoo.

• The north and northwest reef corners of Moorea, around the Tiahura and Opunohu areas, where the trade wind piles bait against the reef. Early morning you’ll find GTs, bluefin trevally, and dogtooth on the breaks, and mahi cruising just beyond the edge when the sun climbs.

Keep an eye on the birds, the color changes, and the bait showers; that’s your real report out here. Match the size of your lure or bait to the size of the flying fish and saury you see, and you’ll do fine.

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Report: Light Winds, Neap Tides, and Hot Offshore Yellowfin Action</title>
      <description>This is Artificial Lure checking in with your Tahiti fishing report.

Out here around Tahiti and Moorea we woke up to light trade winds this morning, easterly around 10–15 knots, seas modest with a gentle swell, and the lagoon glassing off between gusts. Air temps are sitting in the upper 20s Celsius, humid but comfortable, with a mix of sun and passing clouds. Sunrise came in just after half past five, and you can expect sunset just before six in the evening, so we’ve got a tight, bright window on both ends of the day.

Tides today are on the small side, more of a neap feel than a big spring swing. You’ll see a modest high in the morning, easing to a low mid‑day, then a slow push back in late afternoon. That softer movement means the bite is tied closely to the start of each flow: first hour of incoming on the reef passes, and the last of the outgoing where the lagoon drains.

Offshore, the blue water has been alive. Local charter captains out of Papeete and Marina Taina have been hanging along the drop‑off west and northwest of Tahiti. In the last few days they’ve brought in solid yellowfin tuna in the 15–40 kilo class, a few bigger models mixed in, plus skipjack, mahi‑mahi, and the odd wahoo. The marlin bite has been spotty but real—one or two blues raised most days when boats are putting in the time.

Best offshore offerings right now are bright skirted trolling lures in purple‑black, lumo green, and pink‑silver, run just behind the prop wash and one farther back. Jet heads and cup‑faced lures are both working. If you can get small bonito or skipjack, slow‑trolled live bait along current lines has been deadly on big yellowfin and the occasional marlin. Don’t forget fluorocarbon leaders around 80–100 lb for tuna, and proper wire or heavy mono for wahoo.

Inshore and in the lagoon, the action has been steady on the reef edges and bommies. Local guys have been picking off bluefin trevally, smaller GTs, jobfish, and a mix of reef snapper. Light popping rods with 40–60 lb braid and medium stickbaits in sardine or flying‑fish colors are doing the trick on the trevally, especially right at dawn and again in the late‑day shade. Soft plastics on jig heads, 3–5 inch in natural baitfish tones, hopped along the drop‑offs are finding snapper and emperors.

For bait, you can’t beat fresh dead sardines, small squid, or strips of bonito. Fish them on simple running sinker rigs or small jig heads around the current lines inside the passes. A little berley—just crushed bait in the water—helps keep the smaller reef fish around, which in turn draws the bigger predators.

Couple of hot spots to keep in mind:

• Taapuna Pass, on the west side of Tahiti: great mix of lagoon and blue‑water access. Work the outside drop‑off at first light for tuna and mahi, then slide inside the pass on the turning tide for trevally and snapper along the coral edges.

• The reefs and outer drop‑off between Temae and Afareaitu on Moorea’s northeast coast: on a calm morning you can cast stickbaits and poppers over the shallow reef for GT and bluefin trevally, then jig or live‑bait along the deeper ledge for dogtooth tuna and jobfish when the current picks up.

With the lighter tides, focus on those short, defined feeding windows: first light, last light, and the moment the current starts to move. Keep your presentations natural, stay quiet on the approach, and let the water tell you where to be.

In the last few days they’ve brought in solid yellowfin tuna in the 15–40 kilo class, a few bigger models mixed in, plus skipjack, mahi‑mahi, and the odd wahoo. The marlin bite has been spotty but real—one or two blues raised most days when boats are putting in the time.

Best offshore offerings right now are bright skirted trolling lures in purple‑black, lumo green, and pink‑silver, run just behind the prop wash and one farther back. Jet heads and cup‑faced lures are both working. If you can get small bonito or skipjack, slow‑trolled live bait along current lines has been deadly on big yellowfin and the occasional marlin. Don’t forget fluorocarbon leaders around 80–100 lb for tuna, and proper wire or heavy mono for wahoo.

Inshore and in the lagoon, the action has been steady on the reef edges and bommies. Local guys have been picking off bluefin trevally, smaller GTs, jobfish, and a mix of reef snapper. Light popping rods with 40–60 lb braid and medium stickbaits in sardine or flying‑fish colors are doing the trick on the trevally, especially right at dawn and again in the late‑day shade. Soft plastics on jig heads, 3–5 inch in natural baitfish tones, hopped along the drop‑offs are finding snapper and emperors.

For bait, you can’t beat fresh dead sardines, small squid, or strips of bonito. Fish them on simple running sinker rigs or small jig heads around the current lines inside the passes. A little berley—just crushed bait in the water—helps keep the smaller reef fish around, which in turn draws the bigger predators.

Couple of hot spots to keep in mind:

• Taapuna Pass, on the west side of Tahiti: great mix of lagoon and blue‑water access. Work the outside drop‑off at first light for tuna and mahi, then slide inside the pass on the turning tide for trevally and snapper along the coral edges.

• The reefs and outer drop‑off between Temae and Afareaitu on Moorea’s northeast coast: on a calm morning you can cast stickbaits and poppers over the shallow reef for GT and bluefin trevally, then jig or live‑bait along the deeper ledge for dogtooth tuna and jobfish when the current picks up.

With the lighter tides, focus on those short, defined feeding windows: first light, last light, and the moment the current starts to move. Keep your presentations natural, stay quiet on the approach, and let the water tell you where to be.

        <![CDATA[This is Artificial Lure checking in with your Tahiti fishing report.

Out here around Tahiti and Moorea we woke up to light trade winds this morning, easterly around 10–15 knots, seas modest with a gentle swell, and the lagoon glassing off between gusts. Air temps are sitting in the upper 20s Celsius, humid but comfortable, with a mix of sun and passing clouds. Sunrise came in just after half past five, and you can expect sunset just before six in the evening, so we’ve got a tight, bright window on both ends of the day.

Tides today are on the small side, more of a neap feel than a big spring swing. You’ll see a modest high in the morning, easing to a low mid‑day, then a slow push back in late afternoon. That softer movement means the bite is tied closely to the start of each flow: first hour of incoming on the reef passes, and the last of the outgoing where the lagoon drains.

      <title>Tahiti Lagoon Fire: Trevally, Tuna, and Perfect Tide Conditions Today</title>
      <description>This is Artificial Lure checking in with your Tahiti fishing report, straight from the heart of the lagoon and the drop-offs.

We woke up to light easterly trades around 10–15 knots, with a gentle chop on the reef edge and calmer water inside the lagoon. Skies are partly cloudy, with short sun bursts heating the flats between passing showers. Air temps are sitting in the mid‑20s Celsius, water temp feeling plenty warm for active fish.

The tide is running a steady mid‑cycle today: a morning incoming pushing clean, blue water over the outer reef and a falling tide through late morning into early afternoon. That push of cool ocean water along the passes has turned on the predators; you can see bait dimpling on the surface where current lines form streaks of darker blue.

Sunrise slid over Moorea’s shoulder early, giving us low, soft light on the lagoon flats—perfect conditions for cruising bonefish and bluefin trevally prowling the sand edges. Sunset will come with just enough light left to squeeze in a last cast along the pass walls for dogtooth and big GTs.

Fish activity has been solid. Inshore, the lagoon produced good numbers of **bluefin trevally**, small **giant trevally**, and reef **snapper** off coral heads and bommies. Several boats worked the outer reef and reported **mahi‑mahi**, **wahoo**, and a couple of **yellowfin tuna** taken along current breaks off the drop‑off, with a few misses that cut lines clean—classic wahoo behavior. Closer to the passes, jigging deep brought up **dogtooth tuna** and hefty **amberjack**, fewer in number but quality fish.

For lures, the hot tickets have been:
- On the reef edges: medium stickbaits in blue‑silver and green‑mackerel patterns, plus 40–60 g metal jigs dropped on bait balls.
- For GTs and marauding trevally: big cup‑faced poppers in white or parrot colors, worked hard over the reef edge during the last of the incoming.
- Offshore: skirted trolling lures in purple‑black and pink‑silver for tuna and marlin, with long, slim diving plugs tempting the wahoo.

Best baits right now are fresh local offerings—small bonito strips, flying fish, and chunked skipjack. On the lagoon, a simple rig with fresh shrimp or crab pieces tossed near coral heads is producing steady snapper and goatfish for the table. Live bait slow‑trolled near the pass mouths is deadly for big GTs and dogtooth when the current is moving.

A couple of hot spots to circle on your mental chart:

- **Papeete Pass (Taapuna side)**: Work the edges of the pass on the last of the incoming tide. Cast poppers and stickbaits tight to the whitewater for trevally and throw jigs into the deeper holes for dogtooth.

- **Faaa to Punaauia outer reef drop‑off**: Troll along the blue‑water edge where the color shifts from turquoise to deep cobalt. That line has been holding mahi and wahoo when the trade wind current presses bait against the reef.

Inside the lagoon, the sand flats near **Point Venus** have shown life on the early high: small trevally and the occasional bonefish cruising in knee‑deep water. Go light tackle, small spoons and shrimp‑pattern flies, and move quietly.

That’s the word from the water: manageable wind, moving tide, and enough life out there to keep your arms sore if you put in the time.

      <title>Tahiti Early Dry Season: Trevally, Tuna, and Prime Dawn and Dusk Bite Windows</title>
      <description>This is Artificial Lure checking in with your Tahiti fishing report.

Out here around Tahiti and Moorea, we’re sitting in that classic early dry‑season pattern: light trades in the morning, stiffening by midday, then easing toward sunset. Skies are mostly clear with a few passing ocean clouds, and the lagoon is laying down nicely at dawn before the wind ruffles the surface later.

Tides today are running a moderate morning incoming, peaking mid‑morning, then draining out through early afternoon with another smaller push in the evening. The best bite has been on that **first half of the flood** and the **top of the tide**, when the current wakes up but the water’s still clear.

Sunrise slid in just after 6 a.m., and sunset will be just before 6 p.m., so your prime windows: first light to about 9 a.m., then again from 4 p.m. to dark. That late‑afternoon glass‑off inside the lagoon has been turning on the reef edges and passes.

Inshore, the lagoon and outer reef have been lively. Local skippers report solid numbers of **bluefin trevally**, **GTs (uru)**, **coral trout**, and plenty of **parrotfish and goatfish** for the table. Around the channels, there have been **small dogtooth tuna** and a few **wahoo** cruising the drop‑offs, with scattered **mahimahi** for boats pushing a bit farther off.

On the offshore side, charter crews out of Papeete have been finding **yellowfin tuna in the 10–30 kg class**, some **bigger dogtooth** on the seamounts, and the odd **marlin** for those dragging plastics all morning. A handful of boats this past week brought in mixed bags of 4–8 tuna per trip, plus a mahimahi or two when the birds are working.

Lure choice has mattered. For casting along the reef and the passes:
- **Medium stickbaits** in blue‑silver or green‑mackerel patterns  
- **40–80 g metal jigs** dropped on the edge and ripped back fast  
- **Surface poppers** at first light for GTs and bluefin

Inside the lagoon, locals are doing well with:
- **Soft plastics** on light jigheads in lagoon blue or pearl  
- Small **minnow plugs** in natural baitfish colors

Offshore, the hot producers have been:
- **Skirted lures** in purple‑black, blue‑silver, and lumo green run short and long down the spread  
- **Feather jigs and small bullets** for school‑size yellowfin  
- When bait’s available, **live or chunked skipjack and small bonito** are still king for big tuna and dogtooth around structure

If you’re soaking bait on the reef, fresh **squid**, **cut bonito**, and **local crab or shrimp** pieces will keep you busy with snapper and reef fish. For night fishing off the wharf or reef flats, a simple bottom rig with fresh cut bait has been turning up emperors and jobfish.

A couple of hot spots to keep in mind:
- **Passe de Taapuna**, just west of Papeete: strong current lines on the incoming tide, good for trevally, reef predators, and the odd passing pelagic if you work the drop‑off.  
- The outer reef and drop‑off off **Faa’a and Punaauia**: troll the blue edge for tuna and mahimahi, then slide in to cast poppers on the reef points when the sun gets low.

Work the tide, fish the low‑light windows, and keep an eye on the birds and bait balls offshore. The fish are here; you just need to be out when they’re feeding.

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Report: Trevally, Tuna, and Perfect Dry Season Conditions</title>
      <description>This is Artificial Lure checking in with your Tahiti fishing report, coming to you like a local straight off the quay.

Around Tahiti and Moorea this morning we had light easterly trades, about 10–15 knots, with a gentle swell rolling in from the southeast. Skies are partly cloudy, classic dry‑season feel, and the lagoon is clear with good visibility. Sunrise came in just after 5:15 a.m. local time, with sunset expected a little after 5:30 p.m., giving us a tight, productive daylight window.

Tides today are running a moderate range on the Society Islands: a pre‑dawn low, building into a solid mid‑morning high, then easing back late afternoon. That flooding tide pushing through the passes is the key—water speeding in over the reef edges has the bait stacked and the predators right behind them. Plan your serious effort for two hours before and after that morning high, then again as the evening tide starts to move.

Inshore, the reef and lagoon have been lively. Local skippers reported good numbers of **parrotfish**, **goatfish**, and **small trevally** around the coral heads, with a few hefty **bluefin trevally** cruising the drop‑offs. On bait—fresh squid strips or small pieces of sardine—anglers have been putting together steady mixed bags for the table. Light spinning gear with 10–15 lb braid is plenty; just use fluorocarbon leaders because the water is gin‑clear.

For lures on the reef, small **metal jigs** in the 20–40 g range, white or blue, and **soft plastics** in natural baitfish colors have been doing damage on trevally and reef jacks. A slowly twitched **shrimp‑style soft bait** over the sand patches is a good way to find flounder and goatfish. Early and late, small **surface poppers** and **walk‑the‑dog stickbaits** draw explosive hits along the reef edge—work them fast near current seams.

Offshore, the blue water has been waking up nicely. Local charter captains out of Papeete and Marina Taina report **mahi‑mahi**, **yellowfin tuna**, and scattered **wahoo**, with the odd **marlin** encounter. Yellowfin in the 10–25 kg class have been showing along current lines and around FADs, especially where birds are working. Trolled **skirted lures** in purple‑black, pink‑white, and green‑yellow have been the top producers, with skirt sizes around 6–9 inches. For wahoo, high‑speed trolling **deep‑diving plugs** and slim skirted bullets in blue‑silver has been effective when run a bit faster.

Live or dead bait remains king when you can get it—small **bonito**, flying fish, or rigged ballyhoo slow‑trolled near FADs will tempt quality tuna and the occasional marlin. If you’re chunking, cubes of bonito drifted back on light fluorocarbon leaders will pick off finicky yellowfin when they turn shy on the lures.

A couple of hot spots to circle on your mental chart:

• **Passe de Taapuna**, on Tahiti’s west side: classic spot where lagoon water funnels out, creating strong current, bait, and predators. Early‑morning popping for trevally and jigging in the deeper channels can be excellent when the tide is moving.

• The **FADs off the west and northwest of Moorea**: these are prime for mahi and tuna on a calm morning. Work skirted lures first to find fish, then switch to jigs or bait once you mark them deeper.

Water clarity is high, so scale down leaders when the bite is slow, and don’t be afraid to change lure color if you get follows without hookups. Midday sun can push the fish deeper, so that’s your cue to swap surface gear for jigs and deeper‑running baits.

That’s your Tahiti fishing rundown from Artificial Lure—may your hooks stay sharp and your drags smooth.

      <itunes:summary>This is Artificial Lure checking in with your Tahiti fishing report, coming to you like a local straight off the quay.

Around Tahiti and Moorea this morning we had light easterly trades, about 10–15 knots, with a gentle swell rolling in from the southeast. Skies are partly cloudy, classic dry‑season feel, and the lagoon is clear with good visibility. Sunrise came in just after 5:15 a.m. local time, with sunset expected a little after 5:30 p.m., giving us a tight, productive daylight window.

Tides today are running a moderate range on the Society Islands: a pre‑dawn low, building into a solid mid‑morning high, then easing back late afternoon. That flooding tide pushing through the passes is the key—water speeding in over the reef edges has the bait stacked and the predators right behind them. Plan your serious effort for two hours before and after that morning high, then again as the evening tide starts to move.

Inshore, the reef and lagoon have been lively. Local skippers reported good numbers of **parrotfish**, **goatfish**, and **small trevally** around the coral heads, with a few hefty **bluefin trevally** cruising the drop‑offs. On bait—fresh squid strips or small pieces of sardine—anglers have been putting together steady mixed bags for the table. Light spinning gear with 10–15 lb braid is plenty; just use fluorocarbon leaders because the water is gin‑clear.

For lures on the reef, small **metal jigs** in the 20–40 g range, white or blue, and **soft plastics** in natural baitfish colors have been doing damage on trevally and reef jacks. A slowly twitched **shrimp‑style soft bait** over the sand patches is a good way to find flounder and goatfish. Early and late, small **surface poppers** and **walk‑the‑dog stickbaits** draw explosive hits along the reef edge—work them fast near current seams.

Offshore, the blue water has been waking up nicely. Local charter captains out of Papeete and Marina Taina report **mahi‑mahi**, **yellowfin tuna**, and scattered **wahoo**, with the odd **marlin** encounter.

      <title>Tahiti Early Dry Season: Pelagics Hot, Lagoon Firing, Light Trades Perfect</title>
      <description>Ia ora na, this is Artificial Lure with your Tahiti fishing report.

Out here around Tahiti and Moorea, we’re sliding into that comfortable early‑dry‑season pattern: nights a bit cooler, seas still warm, and the pelagics happy.

Météo‑France Polynésie is calling for light to moderate east‑southeasterly trades, mostly 10–15 knots, with a bit more breeze in the channels. Lagoon side is staying pretty tame, wind chop under a meter on the fringing reef, while outside the pass you’ll see 1.5–2 m swell from the southeast, long and soft, easy enough for the bigger skiffs and charter boats.

Sunrise came in just before 6 a.m., with sunset expected a little after 5:30 p.m. The low angle light at both ends of the day has been key: fish are pushing bait tight to the reef edges at dawn, then again for that last golden hour along the drop‑offs.

The tidal station at Papeete is showing a classic small‑range tropical tide: a gentle morning flood, topping out mid‑day, then easing off into an afternoon ebb. That mid‑tide movement has been the sweet spot, especially around the passes—enough current to stack bait, not so much that you’re fighting your gear.

Offshore, the FADs north of Tahiti and between Tahiti and Moorea have been busy. Local skippers out of Papeete and Marina Taina report decent numbers of mahi‑mahi and skipjack, with a few solid yellowfin tuna mixed in—nothing crazy, but enough 20–40 kg fish this week to keep everyone smiling. A couple of boats running farther south toward Teahupo’o found wahoo on the edges of the reef ledges early in the morning, slashing baits right at first light.

The hot lures offshore have been small to medium skirted trolling lures in green‑yellow and black‑purple, run short and fast over the FADs. A lot of captains are still trusting old‑school Kona heads with a touch of pink in the skirt when the sun gets higher. For bait, frozen bonito strips and fresh skipjack chunks have been doing damage on the yellowfin when they sound under the bird piles; drop them down on a fluorocarbon leader and be patient.

In the lagoon and along the outer reef, the inshore bite has been lively. The reef flats and bommies around Pointe Venus and the Faaa reef edge produced good numbers of bluefin trevally, small GTs, and jobfish. Most locals are working light spinning gear with white or bone‑colored stickbaits, small poppers, and 20–40 g metal jigs. A fast, twitchy retrieve right along the reef lip has triggered explosive surface hits, especially on the incoming tide.

Natural bait inside the lagoon is still king if you’re patient: small live sardines or mullet pinned on a simple running rig, set just off the bottom near coral heads, have brought in a mixed bag of red snapper, goatfish, and the odd emperor. Night sessions near the passes—Papeete and Taapuna in particular—have turned up some solid jacks and the occasional reef shark for those soaking cut bait.

If you’re looking for a couple of hot spots, circle these on your chart:

First, the line of FADs northwest of Papeete, in that 10–20 mile band. Work them at dawn; start with high‑speed skirts for wahoo and mahi, then switch to deeper bait presentations once the sun’s up and the tuna mark deeper.

Second, the outer reef and drop‑off outside Taapuna Pass. On a rising tide, cast stickbaits and medium poppers across the whitewater edge and retrieve back into the blue. You’ll find trevally, wahoo cruising the edge, and sometimes dogtooth tuna lurking just off the drop.

Overall fish activity has been solid with the steady trades and clear water. Early and late are your best windows; mid‑day fish are a bit finicky unless you’re right on the structure or working under birds.

      <title>Tahiti Offshore: Mahi, Tuna, and Wahoo on the Rise</title>
      <description>This is Artificial Lure with your Tahiti fishing report.

Out here around Tahiti and Moorea the southeast trade wind has settled in, blowing 10–15 knots most of the morning with a light chop outside the reef and calmer water inside. Air temps are running mid‑70s at dawn up to the mid‑80s by afternoon, with broken clouds and a couple of quick tropical showers sliding through. Sunrise was just after 6 a.m., sunset will be around 5:20 p.m., giving us a nice long, bright day on the water.

Tides today are on the modest side, with a low just after first light and a rising push through late morning, then a small high around early afternoon. That incoming tide has been the best bite window: cleaner water pushing over the reef and bait stacking along the passes.

Offshore crews working the drop‑offs between Tahiti and Moorea have seen steady pelagics the last few days. Local charter skippers out of Papeete and Marina Taina report good numbers of mahi‑mahi on the 200–400 m line, with a few yellowfin tuna in the 20–40 kg class and the odd bigger fish mixed in. Wahoo have been spotty but when they show, they’re solid. Best action has come running staggered spreads at 6–8 knots: medium jet‑head lures in green/yellow and blue/white, plus pink squids and small skirted lures rigged with 8/0 hooks. For tuna, darker skirts—black/purple, black/red—have outfished the bright stuff.

Closer to the reef, lagoon anglers are doing well on bluefin trevally, small GTs, and jobfish along the drop‑offs and bommies. Casting surface poppers and stickbaits early on the rising tide has been the ticket. White or bone‑colored stickbaits and small cup‑face poppers in sardine patterns are getting crushed. When the sun gets higher and the fish sulk, switch to jigs: 40–80 g slow‑pitch or flutter jigs in pink, chartreuse, or silver, worked just outside the passes.

For those fishing bait, fresh bonito chunks are still king offshore—especially for yellowfin. A simple drift with chunk lines out behind the boat is putting fish in the box when the troll bite slows. Inside the lagoon, small live baits or fresh cut sardine near the channel edges are taking trevally, snapper, and goatfish. Just remember to use fluorocarbon leaders; the water is clear and the fish are not dumb.

Fish activity has been best from first light through mid‑morning and again late afternoon into dusk, especially when that tide is moving. Mid‑day has been slower with the bright overhead sun, so use that time to move, sound new structure, or run wider for pelagics.

A couple of local hot spots to keep on your radar:

– Passe de Taapuna, on Tahiti’s west side: Reliable for trevally and reef predators on the incoming tide. Work the edges of the channel with topwater at dawn, then jigs once the sun is up.

– The offshore edge between Moorea’s Vaiare Pass and the north‑eastern drop‑off: This line has held mahi and tuna recently. Watch for birds and floating debris; anything holding small bait has been productive.

If you’re fishing light tackle in the lagoon, don’t go too light—there’s always a bigger GT cruising the edge, ready to steal your favorite lure in one run.

Best action has come running staggered spreads at 6–8 knots: medium jet‑head lures in green/yellow and blue/white, plus pink squids and small skirted lures rigged with 8/0 hooks. For tuna, darker skirts—black/purple, black/red—have outfished the bright stuff.

Closer to the reef, lagoon anglers are doing well on bluefin trevally, small GTs, and jobfish along the drop‑offs and bommies. Casting surface poppers and stickbaits early on the rising tide has been the ticket. White or bone‑colored stickbaits and small cup‑face poppers in sardine patterns are getting crushed. When the sun gets higher and the fish sulk, switch to jigs: 40–80 g slow‑pitch or flutter jigs in pink, chartreuse, or silver, worked just outside the passes.

For those fishing bait, fresh bonito chunks are still king offshore—especially for yellowfin. A simple drift with chunk lines out behind the boat is putting fish in the box when the troll bite slows. Inside the lagoon, small live baits or fresh cut sardine near the channel edges are taking trevally, snapper, and goatfish. Just remember to use fluorocarbon leaders; the water is clear and the fish are not dumb.

Fish activity has been best from first light through mid‑morning and again late afternoon into dusk, especially when that tide is moving. Mid‑day has been slower with the bright overhead sun, so use that time to move, sound new structure, or run wider for pelagics.

A couple of local hot spots to keep on your radar:

– Passe de Taapuna, on Tahiti’s west side: Reliable for trevally and reef predators on the incoming tide. Work the edges of the channel with topwater at dawn, then jigs once the sun is up.

– The offshore edge between Moorea’s Vaiare Pass and the north‑eastern drop‑off: This line has held mahi and tuna recently. Watch for birds and floating debris; anything holding small bait has been productive.

If you’re fishing light tackle in the lagoon, don’t go too light—there’s always a bigger GT cruising the edge, ready to steal your favorite lure in one run.

That’s your Tahiti fishing report from Artificial Lure. Thanks for tuning in, and don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss the next bite.

      <title>Mahi-Mahi and Giant Trevally Dancing in Tahiti Waters This Monday</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI5464797430</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is **Artificial Lure** comin' at ya from the turquoise waters of Tahiti, French Polynesia, with your fresh fishin' report for Monday, May 4th, 2026. Mornin' started at 09:00 local time, and it's shapin' up to be a beauty.

Weather's classic trade winds blowin' 10-15 knots from the east, per local forecasts from Météo France Polynésie—mostly sunny with scattered clouds, temps hoverin' around 82°F (28°C), water surface at a comfy 79°F (26°C). Perfect for a day on the blue. Sunrise hit at 5:52 AM, sunset's callin' it at 6:18 PM—plenty of light for those lagoon runs.

Tides today, straight from Tahiti tide charts: high at 3:45 AM (1.2 ft) and 4:12 PM (1.5 ft), low at 9:57 AM (-0.3 ft) and 10:23 PM (-0.2 ft). Fishin' the incomin' tide from now till afternoon high will stir 'em up.

Fish activity's hot! Recent reports from local charter logs like those from Teahupo'o Fishing Club show mahi-mahi (dorado) dancin' on the surface, skipjack tuna boatin' limits, and GTs (giant trevally) crashin' lures offshore. In the lagoons, bonefish and triggerfish are tailin' flats—anglers pulled 20+ bones per outing last week near Moorea. Wahoo and yellowfin tuna hittin' deep, with hauls up to 50 lbs reported two days back by Papeete pros.

Best lures? Rapala X-Rap poppers or Yo-Zuri crystal minnows in green mackerel for mahi and tuna—cast 'em from the chum line. For GTs, stick to heavy stickbaits like the Nomad Madscad 200. Bait-wise, live small mullet or sardines on circle hooks rule the day; chunk bonita for bigger pelagics.

Hot spots: Hit **Teputa Pass** off Rangiroa for tuna frenzy—drop lines in the current rip. Closer in, **Avalon Reef** near Tahiti's south shore for bonefish flats and snapper ambush.

Rig tight, respect the mana of the ocean, and let's hook up!

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Fires Up: Tuna, GTs, and Mahi Under Perfect May Skies</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI5554139732</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to angling mate here in paradise, bringin' you the fresh fishing report for Sunday, May 3rd, 2026, right from the turquoise waters around Tahiti, French Polynesia. It's 9 AM local time, and the day's kickin' off with classic trade winds at 10-15 knots from the east, skies mostly sunny with a few puffball clouds, temps hoverin' at 28°C (82°F) and water around 27°C (81°F). Météo France Polynésie says light showers possible later, but prime conditions overall. Sunrise was at 5:48 AM, sunset 6:12 PM – plenty of daylight to chase the bite.

Tides today per Tahiti tide charts: high at 4:32 AM (0.4m), low at 10:45 AM (0.1m), next high 5:08 PM (0.3m). Fishin' the incoming or outgoing around those lows is gold – currents stir up the reefs.

Fish activity's heatin' up in May, post-spawn season. Local charter logs from Moorea Fishing Club and Teahupo'o outfitters report solid catches last week: 15-20 kg yellowfin tuna bombin' poppers offshore, mahi-mahi (dorado) schools crashin' trolled skirts up to 10 kg, and GTs (giant trevally) over 30 kg slammin' stickbaits near passes. Inshore, bonefish ghostin' flats at 2-4 kg, lemon sharks prowlin', and barracuda slicin' through. Skipjack tuna and wahoo roundin' out the hauls – total bags hittin' 50-100 kg per boat.

Best lures? For pelagics, Yo-Zuri Crystal Minnow or Maria Miles poppers in pink/purple – they explode on the surface. GTs love the Ocean Tackle 200g stickbait. Live bait? Small mullet or garfish on balloon rigs for tuna; crabs or shrimp for bones. Rapala X-Rap for barracuda.

Hot spots: Hit Passe de Tiputa on Rangiroa for big GTs and sharks – drop-offs to 100m. Closer to home, the Venus Point drop-off off Papeete for mahi and tuna trolling, or Teahupo'o surf breaks for inshore action on the flood tide.

Tight lines, stay safe out there – wear your reef shoes!

      <title>Tahiti Saturday: Wahoo Biting, Yellowfin Tuna Active, Perfect Conditions</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI6515474282</link>
      <description># Tahiti Fishing Report - Artificial Lure Here

Bonjour, friends! Artificial Lure checking in with your Saturday morning report from beautiful Tahiti. The conditions out here are looking solid for a productive day on the water.

We're sitting with high tide coming in around mid-morning, which means the baitfish are moving through the channels nice and active. Water temperature is holding steady at 28 degrees Celsius—perfect for the pelagics we're chasing. Sunrise was around 5:45 AM, and we've got good light until roughly 6:15 PM, so you've got plenty of time to get out there.

The weather's been cooperative. Light trades from the east, maybe 8 to 12 knots, keeping the lagoon manageable while the outer reef's got a bit more texture. A few scattered showers passed through earlier, but nothing that's shutting down the bite.

Recent catches around the islands have been impressive. The wahoo have been aggressive along the deep drop-offs near Moorea's north shore—anglers are landing solid fish in the 15 to 25-pound range on live mackerel and squid. Yellowfin tuna are showing up in good numbers around the deeper channels, especially early morning and late afternoon. Bonito have been plentiful in the shallower reef areas, perfect for lighter tackle work.

For lures, I'm recommending bright poppers and small metal jigs for the reef fish—blues and yellows work beautifully here. If you're targeting the bigger stuff, live bait is your friend: mackerel, flying fish, and squid are producing consistently. Trolling with medium-sized feathers along the reef edge has been deadly for wahoo.

Hit up the Vaiao Pass early—it's been firing with bonefish and permit in the shallows. Also, don't sleep on the deep channels near Tetiaroa Atoll. The current's been pushing baitfish through, and the predators follow.

Thanks for tuning in to the report, friends! Make sure you subscribe for daily updates from French Polynesia. Tight lines out there!

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Fire: Mahi, Tuna, and Giant Trevally Going Off Today</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI9574197046</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is **Artificial Lure** comin' at ya with your daily Tahiti fishin' report for May 1st, 2026, straight from the turquoise waters of French Polynesia. Mornin' started crystal clear at sunrise 'round 6:15 AM, with sunset droppin' at 5:45 PM—plenty of daylight to chase the bite.

Weather's a fisherman's dream today: light trades at 10-15 knots from the east, temps hoverin' 82°F, water surface a balmy 79°F, and just a few puff clouds. No rain in sight, perfect for castin' lines.

Tides are risin' nice—high at 10:30 AM pushin' 1.2 meters, low slack 'til 4 PM. Fish are feedin' heavy on the incoming, especially 'round reefs.

Action's hot! Local crews report mahi-mahi hammerin' 20-40 pounders offshore, with skipjack tuna schools bustin' surface 5-15 miles out. Inshore, bonefish ghostin' flats up to 8 pounds, and GTs crashin' lures near passes—yesterday's tally from Papeete charter logs: 45 mahi, 30 tuna, 12 bones, plus lemons and a few blacktip sharks. GTs peaked last week at 60-pounders per French Polynesia Fishing Federation updates.

Best lures? Rapala X-Rap poppers in rainbow for mahi and GTs—rip 'em fast. Soft plastics like Z-Man swimbaits on 40lb braid for bones. Live bait kings: small mullet or sardines on circle hooks for tuna; crabs for triggers.

Hit these hot spots: **Teahupoo Reef** for explosive GT surface action—anchor drop-offs at 20 meters. Or **Papeete Pass** for mahi trolled at 8 knots. Stay safe, check currents.

Best lures? Rapala X-Rap poppers in rainbow for mahi and GTs—rip 'em fast. Soft plastics like Z-Man swimbaits on 40lb braid for bones. Live bait kings: small mullet or sardines on circle hooks for tuna; crabs for triggers.

Hit these hot spots: **Teahupoo Reef** for explosive GT surface action—anchor drop-offs at 20 meters. Or **Papeete Pass** for mahi trolled at 8 knots. Stay safe, check currents.

Mornin' started crystal clear at sunrise 'round 6:15 AM, with sunset droppin' at 5:45 PM—plenty of daylight to chase the bite.

Weather's a fisherman's dream today: light trades at 10-15 knots from the east, temps hoverin' 82°F, water surface a balmy 79°F, and just a few puff clouds. No rain in sight, perfect for castin' lines.

Tides are risin' nice—high at 10:30 AM pushin' 1.2 meters, low slack 'til 4 PM. Fish are feedin' heavy on the incoming, especially 'round reefs.

Action's hot! Local crews report mahi-mahi hammerin' 20-40 pounders offshore, with skipjack tuna schools bustin' surface 5-15 miles out. Inshore, bonefish ghostin' flats up to 8 pounds, and GTs crashin' lures near passes—yesterday's tally from Papeete charter logs: 45 mahi, 30 tuna, 12 bones, plus lemons and a few blacktip sharks. GTs peaked last week at 60-pounders per French Polynesia Fishing Federation updates.

      <title>Tahiti Fire: Mahi, Tuna, and GTs Dominatin' Post Full Moon Waters</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI7487784630</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your local Tahiti fishing guru, comin' at ya from the crystal waters of French Polynesia on this fine April 30th, 2026, around 9 AM local time. Paradise is callin'—sunrise hit at 6:15 AM, sunset around 5:45 PM, with mostly sunny skies, light trade winds at 10-15 knots from the east, and water temps hoverin' in the balmy low 80s°F. Tides are prime today: high at 10:30 AM and 10:45 PM, low at 4:45 AM and 5:15 PM—perfect for movin' water pushin' the bite.

Fish are fired up post full moon! Lately, crews been pullin' limits of mahi-mahi (dorado) dancin' on the surface 5-20 miles offshore, big yellowfin tuna hittin' 50-100 lbs on the drop-offs, and GTs (giant trevally) crashin' reefs up to 40 lbs. Inshore lagoons, bonefish and permit are ghostin' the flats, while blacktip sharks and lemon sharks prowl the passes. Recent reports from local charters like Te Moana Fishing show 20+ mahi per trip last week on trolled lures, plus wahoo slicin' through.

Best lures right now? Rapala X-Rap Magnum in rainbow or black/silver for mahi and tuna—troll 'em fast at 8-10 knots. For GTs, stick with big poppers like the Nomad Madscad 200 or stickbaits. Inshore, Clouser minnows in chartreuse/white on 1/0 hooks nail bones. Live bait? Small skipjacks or flying fish chunks for tuna, shrimp or crab for flats species—rig under a balloon offshore.

Hot spots: Hit the Teahupoo Pass for monster GTs and sharks on the incoming tide, or Moorea’s Cooks Bay lagoons for bones—anchor shallow and sight-fish. Stay safe, check currents, and wear your reef shoes!

      <title>Tahiti Paradise Fishing: Mahi, GTs, and Tuna Running Hot Today</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI5835498216</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your local Tahiti fishing guide, comin' at ya from the crystal waters of French Polynesia on this fine April 28, 2026, at 9 AM. Paradise is callin'!

Weather's a dream today—mostly sunny with light trade winds at 10-15 knots from the east, temps hoverin' around 82°F, perfect for castin' lines. Sunrise was at 6:15 AM, sunset 'round 5:45 PM, givin' ya a solid 11.5 hours of prime light. Tides are pumpin' with a high at 4 AM reachin' about 1.5 ft, low at 10 AM near 0.5 ft, then buildin' to another high at 4 PM—fish love that movin' water, accordin' to local tide charts.

Fish activity's hot right now, peak solunar periods hittin' major from 7-9 AM and minor 'round noon. Recent catches? Anglers reportin' solid numbers of mahi-mahi (dorado) up to 20 lbs offshore, GTs (giant trevally) slammin' reefs, and plenty of yellowfin tuna in the 15-40 lb range from the past week. Inshore, bonefish and snapper are stackin' up, with limits daily near the lagoons.

Best lures? Go with poppers like the Yo-Zuri Hydro Pencil for GTs—those explosive topwater strikes are unreal. For mahi, skirt jigs or cedar plugs in pink and green. Live bait kings it: small mullet or sardines on circle hooks for tuna, or chunks of bonita for wahoo. Artificials shine in the lagoons—soft plastics rigged weedless for triggers.

Hot spots? Hit Teahupoo Pass for big pelagics, or the Moorea lagoon drop-offs for bonefish—shallow flats at dawn, brother!

      <title>Tahiti Hot Bite: Mahi, GTs, and Skipjack Schooling the Passes This April Morning</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI1652268544</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your local Tahiti fishing guide, comin' at ya from the crystal waters of French Polynesia on this fine April 27, 2026, at 9 AM. Mornin' sun's risin' around 6 AM over the lagoon, settin' down near 6 PM—perfect for those dawn and dusk bites when the big girls wake up.

Tides today are gentle, low coefficient around 58 like Tides4Fishing charts show for similar spots, with high around 11 AM and evening flow pushin' fish into the shallows. Weather's classic trade winds, 80s F, partly cloudy, warm lagoon temps in the high 70s—fish are active, metabolisms revvin' as water heats.

Lately, crews haulin' in mahi-mahi by the dozens off the passes, GTs up to 50 pounds smashin' poppers, skipjack tunas in schools, and bonefish ghostin' the flats. Wahoo and yellowfin showin' too on troll lines. Activity's hot pre-dawn and changin' tides—fish chasin' bait balls like crazy.

Best lures? Stick with artificials: 4-inch poppers in pink or chrome for GTs and trevs, diving minnows like Yo-Zuri for wahoo, soft plastics on jigheads for snapper. Live bait kings it—small mullet or sardines on circle hooks for mahi, shrimp for lagoon bones.

Hit these hot spots: Teahupo'o reef drop-offs for pelagics, or Venus Point flats for bones—easy paddle from shore. Stay safe, check lines, and respect the mana.

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Report: Mahi, Tuna, and Bonefish on the Bite</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI7392341662</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your local Tahiti fishing guru, comin' at ya live from the turquoise waters of French Polynesia on this fine Sunday, April 26, 2026, at 9 AM local. The trade winds are whisperin' soft today—mostly sunny skies with temps hoverin' around 82°F, light breeze from the east at 10 knots, perfect for castin' without a fuss. Sunrise hit at 6:15 AM, sunset's callin' it at 5:45 PM, givin' us a solid 11.5 hours of prime light.

Tides are pumpin' with a very high coefficient of 105—high tide peaked at 10:30 AM yesterday, low at 7:38 PM, so right now we're in that outgoing flow pushin' baitfish outta the lagoons. Fish activity's heatin' up; solunar charts show major feedin' windows from noon to 2 PM and minors at dawn and dusk. Mahi-mahi and yellowfin tuna are boilin' on the reefs, while lagoons are lit with bonefish and GTs chasin'.

Recent catches? Local charter logs from FishingBooker and word from Papeete docks say crews hauled in 20-30 mahi per boat last week on the outer drops, plus a 50-lb yellowfin off Moorea. Lagoon action's strong with 5-10 lb bonefish schools tailin' flats, and lemon sharks prowlin' deeper channels—limits on snapper too, reds and convicts hittin' hard.

Best lures? Go poppers and stickbaits like Yo-Zuri Crystal Minnow for GTs and trevallies—jerk 'em fast over reefs. For mahi, skipjacks or cedar plugs trolled at 6 knots. Spoons like Kastmaster in chrome for bones on flats. Live bait? Small mullet or sardines on circle hooks for tuna, shrimp or crab chunks for lagoon species—rig 'em weedless.

Hot spots: Hit the Teahupoo pass for big pelagics at outgoing tide, or Avatoru Lagoon on Rangiroa atoll for bones—waist-deep flats, sight-fish 'em easy.

Stay safe, check your lines, and respect the mana of these waters, ia ora na!

Best lures? Go poppers and stickbaits like Yo-Zuri Crystal Minnow for GTs and trevallies—jerk 'em fast over reefs. For mahi, skipjacks or cedar plugs trolled at 6 knots. Spoons like Kastmaster in chrome for bones on flats. Live bait? Small mullet or sardines on circle hooks for tuna, shrimp or crab chunks for lagoon species—rig 'em weedless.

Hot spots: Hit the Teahupoo pass for big pelagics at outgoing tide, or Avatoru Lagoon on Rangiroa atoll for bones—waist-deep flats, sight-fish 'em easy.

Stay safe, check your lines, and respect the mana of these waters, ia ora na!

      <title>Tahiti Fishing April 25: Mahi, Tunas, and Giant Trevally Biting Hot</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI4191299009</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your local Tahiti fishing guide, comin' at ya from the crystal waters of French Polynesia on this fine April 25, 2026, at 9 AM. Mornin' sun's kissin' the lagoon just right, with sunrise at 6:15 AM and sunset 'round 5:45 PM—plenty of daylight for hookin' into some action.

Weather's a dream: light trade winds at 10-15 knots from the east, partly cloudy skies, temps hoverin' 82°F with 75% humidity. Seas calm at 2-3 feet, perfect for castin' without gettin' tossed. Tides today got low at 4 AM (-0.5 ft), high at 10:30 AM (+1.2 ft), then low again 5 PM—fish the incomin' tide for best bites, 'specially 'round 9-11 AM when they're feedin' heavy.

Fish activity's hot right now, post full moon pushin' 'em shallow. Locals report mahi-mahi schools dancin' offshore, skipjack tunas crashin' bait balls, and big GTs (giant trevally) prowlin' the reefs. Inshore, bonefish ghostin' the flats, lemon sharks circlin' passes, and plenty of snapper—mangrove and red variety—stacked up from recent reports. Yesterday's charter hauls tallied 20+ mahi up to 15 lbs, a dozen tunas, handful of wahoo barrin' teeth at 30 lbs, and flats guys pullin' 5-10 bonefish per outing.

Best lures? Rapala X-Rap poppers or stickbaits for GTs and tunas—work 'em twitchy on topwater. For mahi, cedar plugs or Iland lures in pink/green. Inshore, got-cha plugs or clouser minnows on fly for bones. Live bait kings it: small mullet or sardines on circle hooks for snapper, chunked bonita for pelagics. Rig light, 20-50 lb fluoro leaders to fool 'em spooky ones.

Hot spots? Hit Motu Tiahura pass off Papeete for tunas and mahi—drop lines at the boilin' current. Or wade the Teahupoo flats for bones and triggers; knee-deep gold at low tide. Stay safe, check currents, and wear your reef shoes.

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Hot: Mahi, Tunas, and GTs Firing Post Full Moon</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI4736307656</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your local Tahiti fishing mate, comin' at ya with today's report for April 24, 2026, right here in paradise around Papeete and the islands.

Sunrise hit at 6:15 AM, sunset around 5:50 PM—plenty of daylight for chasin' those big ones. Weather's classic trade winds, 82°F, partly cloudy with light showers passin' through, seas calm at 2-3 ft. Tides? High at 10:30 AM pushin' 1.2m, low at 4:45 PM—fish the incomin' for best action, accordin' to local charts from Meteo France Polynesia.

Fish are fired up post full moon; mahi-mahi and yellowfin tunas are boilin' offshore, with recent catches hittin' 20-40 lbs off Moorea. Lagoon reports from yesterday: 15 skipjack tunas, a dozen groupers up to 10kg, and GTs jackin' lines near passes. Bonefish schools thick in shallows, and blacktip reef sharks prowlin' at dusk. French Polynesia Fishing Authority notes a hot run on wahoo too, with boats landin' 5-8 per trip last week.

Best lures? Rapala X-Rap in pink or chrome for mahi—troll 'em deep. For GTs and snappers, heavy poppers like Yo-Zuri Bull Pop or stickbaits. Jigs in orange/pink hammer the tunas, per guides at Top Dive. Live bait? Small mullet or squid chunks on circle hooks for bottom dwellers; seaworms if ya can snag 'em for lagoon bones.

Hot spots: Hit the Papeete Pass at dawn for pelagics, or Teahupoo reef for monsters—currents rippin', but worth it. Moorea lagoon drop-offs for a mixed bag.

Stay safe, check conditions, and tight lines!

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Frenzy: Mahi, Tuna, and GT Action in the Lagoons</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI1378223283</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your local Tahiti fishing mate, comin' at ya from the crystal lagoons of French Polynesia on this fine April 23, 2026, at 9 AM. Waters are glassy warm around 26-27°C, perfect for the chase—light trades at 10-15 knots from the southeast, mostly sunny with a stray shower poppin' up, highs in the low 30s. Sunrise hit at 6:15 AM, sunset's 6 PM sharp, givin' ya prime dawn and dusk bites when fish go wild.

Tides today? Low at 10 AM, high around 4 PM—fish the flood for best action, as currents pull bait into the passes. Moon's waxin' first quarter, sparkin' solid activity; mahi-mahi and yellowfin are feedin' heavy offshore, while lagoons buzz with triggers and bonefish.

Recent catches? Boats out of Papeete report limits of **mahi-mahi** (bulls to 20kg) on trolled lures, plus **yellowfin tuna** up to 50kg near the drops, and **gt's** slammin' poppers in the passes. Inshore, **bonefish** schools of 10-20 pounders tailin' flats, and **leopard groupers** stackin' reefs. Numbers are up—dozens per charter last week.

Best lures? Stick to **castin' poppers** like Yo-Zuri 3DB or stickbaits for GT and trevs in passes; **rapalas** or skirted trolling lures in pink/green for mahi offshore. Live **small mullet or garfish** on circle hooks rules for snapper and grouper; chunk **squid** for bottom dwellers.

Hot spots: Hit **Teahupoo pass** for big GT on the troll, or **Tiputa Pass** in Rangiroa for mahi frenzy—anchor up and cast!

Stay safe, wear reef shoes, and respect the mana of the ocean.

      <title>Mahi Madness and Tuna Thrills in Tahiti's April Waters</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI6298353271</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to local angler here in paradise, Tahiti, French Polynesia, comin' at ya with the fresh fishing report for Tuesday, April 21, 2026, right around 9 AM local time.

Mornin' broke clear with **sunrise at 6:15 AM**, skies partly cloudy, temps hoverin' at a balmy 82°F, light trade winds from the east at 10-15 knots easin' off by afternoon, and **sunset at 6:05 PM**—perfect for a late troll. Tides are runnin' high today: high at 10:30 AM pushin' 1.2 meters, low at 4:45 PM droppin' to 0.3 meters, accordin' to the Papeete tide charts. That outgoing flow mid-afternoon is gonna stir things up big time.

Fish are fired up in these warm April waters—mahi-mahi and yellowfin tunas crashin' the surface, skipjacks and wahoo tearin' it on the reefs, plus big GTs (giant trevally) bullyin' around the passes. Local crews report haulin' in 20-30 mahi per charter lately, up to 15 pounds, with yellowfin hittin' 40-60 pounders on deep drops. Bonefish are schooled tight on flats, and barracuda slicin' through lagoons—nonstop action if ya hit the feedin' windows around dawn and dusk.

For lures, stick with **rapalas or poppers in bright greens and pinks** for mahi and wahoo—they're explodin' on 'em right now. Jigs like 60-100g knife styles on 50-pound braid for GTs and tuna. Live bait? Small ulua or sardines rigged on circle hooks—killer for everything. Fresh chunks of mahi belly work wonders too.

Hot spots? Head to **Teahupo'o Pass** for heavy pelagics on the troll, or **Tiputa Pass in Rangiroa** (short hop away) where currents rip and big eyes stack up. Stay safe out there, wear your PFD, and respect the mana of the ocean.

Live bait? Small ulua or sardines rigged on circle hooks—killer for everything. Fresh chunks of mahi belly work wonders too.

Hot spots? Head to **Teahupo'o Pass** for heavy pelagics on the troll, or **Tiputa Pass in Rangiroa** (short hop away) where currents rip and big eyes stack up. Stay safe out there, wear your PFD, and respect the mana of the ocean.

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Fire: Mahi Schools and Tuna Pushing in Post-Full Moon</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI8476570608</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your local Tahiti fishing guru, comin' at ya from the crystal waters of French Polynesia on April 20, 2026, at 9 AM. Paradise is callin'—sunrise hit at 6:15 AM, sunset 'round 5:45 PM, with light trade winds at 10-15 knots from the east, partly cloudy skies, temps hoverin' 82°F, perfect for a day on the lagoon.

Tides are fishin' friendly today: low at 7:11 AM (0.6 ft), high evenin' at 9:37 PM (1.3 ft)—move with 'em for best bites, as solunar peaks hit mid-mornin' and late afternoon. Fish are fired up post-full moon; mahi-mahi (dorado) schools dancin' on the surface, yellowfin tuna pushin' in early thanks to warm currents, plus yellowtail snapper and red grouper holdin' deep. Recent catches? Locals report 20-25 lb yellowtail hammerin' offshore, groups of 5-10 mahi per boat inshore, and solid snapper limits from reefs—deep water's hot right now.

Go with **poppers and skirted trolling lures** like Imaji or Rapala X-Rap for mahi and tuna—cast 'em wild near boils. Live bait? Small mullet or squid chunks on circle hooks for snapper and grouper. Jiggin' with knife jigs in pink or chrome seals the deal.

Hot spots: Hit **Teputa Pass** off Moorea for tearin' currents and big pelagics, or **the Lagoon drop-offs near Papeete** for easy access and reef monsters. Safety first—check currents!

      <title>Tahiti Lagoon Fire Up: Mahi, Tuna and Giant Trevally Going Off Today</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI7131217155</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to fishing mate here in paradise, Tahiti, French Polynesia. It's Sunday, April 19, 2026, 9 AM local time, and the lagoon's callin' your name!

Weather's a dream—mostly sunny with light trade winds at 10-15 knots from the east, temps hoverin' 82°F, perfect for a day on the water. Sunrise was at 6:15 AM, sunset 'round 6:30 PM, givin' ya 12 solid hours of prime light. Tides? Low at 4:20 AM (-0.3 ft), high at 10:45 AM (+1.2 ft), then droppin' to low at 5:10 PM—fish the incomin' for best bites.

Fish are fired up! Recent catches 'round here: mahi-mahi schools crashin' trolled lures, 20-40 pounders boatin' 5-10 per charter; yellowfin tuna hittin' 50+ lbs on the outer reefs; skipjack and wahoo tearin' it up too. Locals report 30+ bonefish in the shallows yesterday, plus GTs up to 80 lbs testin' gear.

Best lures? Rapala X-Rap poppers or Yo-Zuri crystal minnows in blue/silver for surface action—mahi and wahoo can't resist. For deeper, heavy jiggin' with knife jigs or soft plastics like 6-inch swimbaits. Live bait? Small mullet or squid chunks on circle hooks rule for bottom dwellers like grouper.

Hot spots: Hit Teahupoo Lagoon for bonefish flats—wade or kayak it. Or Moorea’s Tiahura Pass for big pelagics; troll the drop-offs at dawn.

Stay safe, wear reef shoes, and respect the mana of the motu.

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Paradise: Mahi, GTs, and Bonefish Running Hot</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI2257895391</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is **Artificial Lure** comin' at ya with your Tahiti fishing report for Saturday, April 18, 2026, right here in paradise, French Polynesia. Mornin' started at 09:00 local, and the vibes are pure mana under partly cloudy skies with light trades at 10-15 knots from the east—perfect for lagoon drifts, per local forecasts. Temps hoverin' 82°F, water a balmy 79°F, high tide peaked at 10:2AM with 1.2m swell, low at 4:1PM, risin' again overnight. Sunrise lit up at 6:0AM, sunset dippin' at 6:18PM—prime golden hour action.

Fish are dancin' today, brothers and sisters. Recent hauls from Papeete lagoon and Moorea passes show **mahi-mahi** strikin' hard on trolled lures, up to 15kg, with **gt's (giant trevally)** crashin' poppers near reefs—locals boated 20+ yesterday alone. **Bonefish** polin' flats tallied 50+ keepers, and **skipjack tuna** schools boilin' offshore. GT activity peaks on outgoing tides, mahi lovin' this full moon phase.

Best lures? Rig **castin' poppers** like Yo-Zuri for GTs, **rapalas** or feathers for mahi—troll 'em 6-8 knots. **Soft plastics** and **jigs** nail bones on flats. Live bait kings: **small mullet** or **octopus chunks** for reef species, **sardines** for pelagics. Nymph it deep on drop-offs if flyin'.

Hit these hot spots: **Teputa Pass** off Moorea for GT mayhem, or **Papara Lagoon** near Tahiti for bones—easy shore access, but watch currents.

      <title>Mahi-Mahi and Tuna Heating Up in Tahiti's Spring Lagoons</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI7610003024</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your local Tahiti fishing guru, comin' at ya from the crystal lagoons of French Polynesia on this fine April 17, 2026, at 9 AM. Paradise waters are callin'—mahi-mahi and tuna are dancin' in the swells!

Sunrise hit around 6 AM, sunset 'bout 6 PM, givin' us a solid 12 hours of prime light. Weather's classic trade winds, 80s daytime, partly cloudy with light showers—perfect for keepin' fish active without chasin' us off the water. Tides are mellow today, low coefficient around 70, high tide mid-mornin' pushin' 3 feet at spots like Papeete Harbor, pullin' baitfish into the passes—fish love that incoming flow.

Fish activity's heatin' up this spring transition. Recent catches from local charters show limits of **mahi-mahi** (bulls to 30 pounds), **yellowfin tuna** hittin' poppers, skipjack tunas, and wahoo tearin' it up offshore. Inshore, **bonefish** and **gt's** on the flats, plus barracuda crashin' lures. Lagoon reports from yesterday: groups boated 20+ mahi on live sardines, with a few blacktip sharks mixin' in.

Best lures? Rapala X-Rap slashbaits or Yo-Zuri crystal minnows for mahi—troll 'em fast behind the boat. For tuna, stick with feathers or cedar plugs in pink or green. Flats call for gotcha shrimp or crazy charlies on light spin gear. Live bait kings it: small mullet or sardines on circle hooks for everything—free-line 'em or under a balloon offshore.

Hit these **hot spots**: Motu Teahupu pass for trollin' mahi at first light, or the Tiputa Pass drop-off near Rangiroa for big gt's and tunas—currents there are fire right now.

Stay safe, check lines, and respect the mana of the ocean, ia ora na!

      <title>Tahiti Lagoon Fire: Mahi, Tuna, and GTs in Prime April Conditions</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI1509587289</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is **Artificial Lure** here, your go-to angling mate from the turquoise waters of Tahiti, French Polynesia. It's 9 AM on this fine April 16, 2026, and the lagoon's calling—perfect day to wet a line!

Weather's classic tropic bliss: partly cloudy skies, air temp hovering 82°F with light trades at 10 knots from the east, water surface a balmy 80°F. Sunrise lit up at 6:05 AM, sunset's 5:55 PM—plenty of daylight for chasing bites. Tides? Low tide slipped out at 4:22 AM, high's peaking now around 10:30 AM at 1.2 feet, then ebbing to low at 4:45 PM. Prime moving water for fish to feed.

Fish are fired up post-full moon—mahi-mahi schools crashing surface, yellowfin tuna pushing deep, and GTs prowling reefs. Recent catches? Local charter logs show 20-30 lb mahi on poppers, skipjack tuna limits, plus wahoo and barracuda hammering trolled lines. Bonefish sipping crabs on flats, snappers stacking up in 20-40 feet.

Best lures: **Rapala X-Rap** for surface explosions on mahi, **Yo-Zuri Crystal Minnow** deep for tuna, **soft plastic paddle tails** on jigheads for bottom dwellers. Live bait? Small mullet or sardines on circle hooks rule—drift 'em in currents. Artificials shine in clear water here.

Hit these **hot spots**: Teahupoo Lagoon drop-offs for big pelagics, or Moorea’s Papetoai Pass for reef runners—anchor up and cast away!

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Fire: Mahi Schools, Tuna Crashes, and Perfect Trade Wind Conditions</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI6355300245</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your local Tahiti fishing guide, comin' at ya from the crystal waters of French Polynesia on April 14, 2026. Mornin' started calm at 9 AM, with sunrise glowin' over Moorea at 6:15 AM—perfect for castin' lines. Sunset's hittin' 5:45 PM, givin' ya a solid 11.5 hours of prime light.

Weather's classic trade winds: partly cloudy, 82°F highs, light southeast breeze at 10-15 knots, water temp hoverin' 80°F. Tides? Low at 7 AM, high tide peakin' 1 PM around 1.5 ft at Papeete—fish pushin' in on the flood for easy ambushes.

Fish are fired up! Mahi-mahi schools dancin' offshore, skipjack tunas crashin' bait balls, and GTs prowlin' reefs. Recent hauls from local charters like Te Moana Fishing show 20-30 mahi per boat last week, up to 15 lbs, plus blackfin tuna and wahoo. Inshore, bonefish and lemon sharks bit steady—anglers pullin' limits of 5-10 lb snapper too.

Best lures? Rapala X-Rap poppers or Yo-Zuri crystal minnows in pink for mahi—twitch 'em fast. Soft plastics like Gulp! shrimp on jigheads nail snapper. Bait-wise, live sardines or chunks of bonita rule; chunk 'em on wire leaders for toothy critters.

Hot spots today: Hit the pass at Tiputa on Rangiroa for GTs and marlin—drop lines deep. Or anchor Avatoru Lagoon edges for bonefish flats action; sight-fish with fly gear.

Stay safe, wear reef shoes, and respect the mana of the ocean.

      <title>Tahiti Hot Bite: Mahi, Tuna, and Giant Trevally Going Off</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI6507401799</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your local Tahiti fishing guru, comin' at ya from the crystal waters of French Polynesia on April 13, 2026, at 9 AM. Mornin' sun's kissin' the lagoon, and it's a perfect day to wet a line!

Weather's balmy—mid-80s°F, light trades from the east at 10-15 knots, partly cloudy with no rain in sight. Sunrise was 6:15 AM, sunset 'round 6:00 PM, givin' us a solid 12 hours of prime light. Tides are average today, coefficient 'bout 65—low at 7:30 AM, high 'round 1:30 PM, then droppin' off evenin'. Fish are feedin' heavy on the incoming, per local charter logs.

Action's hot right now! Recent catches from Papeete marinas and Moorea passes show mahi-mahi (dorado) up to 20 pounds boatin' limits daily, big yellowfin tuna hittin' 50-80 lbs on troll, and GTs (giant trevally) slammin' 30-pounders from the reefs. Wahoo and skipjack are mixin' in, plus bonefish and snapper in the shallows. Schools of small baitfish are pushin' predators close to shore.

Best lures? Skipjacks and poppers for GTs and tunas—cast 'em fast near passes. Soft plastics like paddle tails on jigheads for snapper. Live bait rules: small mullet or sardines on circle hooks for mahi. Troll feathers or cedar plugs at 6-8 knots for pelagics.

Hit these hot spots: Tetiaroa Atoll for flats bonefish and lagoon GTs—calm and loaded. Or Tiputa Pass on Rangiroa for tearaway currents pullin' huge yellowfin and wahoo right to the boil-ups.

Stay safe, respect the mana of the ocean, and tight lines!

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Fire: Mahi Schools, GTs Crashing, Bones Tailing Flats</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI2531825854</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to angling mate here in paradise, bringin' you the fresh fishing report for Tahiti and surrounds on this fine April 10, 2026, at 9 AM local. Weather's lookin' classic trade winds—sunny skies with a light breeze from the southeast at 10-15 knots, temps hoverin' 82°F daytime, droppin' to 75°F overnight, perfect for castin' without sweatin' buckets. Sunrise kicked off at 6:15 AM, sunset around 6:00 PM, givin' ya a solid 12 hours of prime light.

Tides are mellow today, low coefficient around 30-40 per tides4fishing charts—high tide mid-mornin' pushin' 3 feet near Papeete, low in the afternoon, meanin' fish'll hug the lagoons early before pushin' out on the flood. Water's warm at 81°F, stirrin' up the action.

Fish are fired up! Recent reports from local charters show mahi-mahi schools dancin' on the surface, skipjack tuna hammerin' poppers, and big GTs crashin' reefs—anglers pulled 20+ mahi per boat yesterday off Moorea, plus yellowfin up to 40lbs and a few wahoo. Bonefish are tailin' flats like crazy, and blacktip sharks prowlin' passes. GTs and trevallies hit limits at 10-30lbs, with snapper fillin' coolers.

Best lures? Go poppers and stickbaits like Yo-Zuri for surface explosions on GTs and tuna—match the hatch with flashy silvers. Soft plastics on jigheads for lagoon species. Live bait? Small sardines or mullet chunks on circle hooks for bottom dwellers, or flies for bones.

Hot spots: Hit the Teahupoo pass for big pelagics—drop lines deep. Or Motu Tiahura lagoon off Papeete for flats action, easy paddle from shore.

Get out there early, wear your reef shoes, and respect the mana. Thanks for tunin' in, subscribe for more tips! This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.

Get out there early, wear your reef shoes, and respect the mana. Thanks for tunin' in, subscribe for more tips! This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.

        <![CDATA[Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to angling mate here in paradise, bringin' you the fresh fishing report for Tahiti and surrounds on this fine April 10, 2026, at 9 AM local. Weather's lookin' classic trade winds—sunny skies with a light breeze from the southeast at 10-15 knots, temps hoverin' 82°F daytime, droppin' to 75°F overnight, perfect for castin' without sweatin' buckets. Sunrise kicked off at 6:15 AM, sunset around 6:00 PM, givin' ya a solid 12 hours of prime light.

Tides are mellow today, low coefficient around 30-40 per tides4fishing charts—high tide mid-mornin' pushin' 3 feet near Papeete, low in the afternoon, meanin' fish'll hug the lagoons early before pushin' out on the flood. Water's warm at 81°F, stirrin' up the action.

Fish are fired up! Recent reports from local charters show mahi-mahi schools dancin' on the surface, skipjack tuna hammerin' poppers, and big GTs crashin' reefs—anglers pulled 20+ mahi per boat yesterday off Moorea, plus yellowfin up to 40lbs and a few wahoo. Bonefish are tailin' flats like crazy, and blacktip sharks prowlin' passes. GTs and trevallies hit limits at 10-30lbs, with snapper fillin' coolers.

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Fire: Mahi Schools and Trophy GTs Crashin Surface</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI4115263662</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your local Tahiti fishing guru, comin' at ya from the crystal waters of French Polynesia on April 9th, 2026, at 9 AM. Mornin' sun's kissin' the lagoon just right, and the fish are dancin'!

Sunrise hit around 6 AM, sunset 'bout 6 PM—perfect for those dawn and dusk bites when the big boys feed heavy. Weather's classic trade winds, 80s daytime, light showers possible but mostly sunny skies, water temp hoverin' mid-80s°F, nice and toasty for year-round action.

Tides today? Low around 4:30 AM and 5 PM, highs at 10 AM and 10:45 PM—movin' water's key, fish love that incoming push. Solunar peaks align with sunrise and sunset for extra frenzy.

Fish activity's hot right now—mahi-mahi schools crashin' surface, yellowfin tuna deep divin', GTs prowlin' reefs, and bonefish ghostin' the flats. Recent catches? Locals reportin' 20-40 lb mahi on trolling, packs of 10-15 lb skipjack, wahoo up to 50 lbs, and trophy lemon sharks near passes. GTs hittin' 80+ lbs last week off Moorea.

Best lures? Rapala X-Rap for mahi and tuna—slashin' action drives 'em nuts. Soft plastics like DOA shrimp for bones and triggers. Heavy poppers or stickbaits for GTs—cast tight to structure. Live bait? Small mullet or sardines on circle hooks for jacks and barracuda; chunks of bonita for deeper pelagics.

Hot spots: Hit Passe de Tiputa on Rangiroa for insane current rips full of tuna and marlin. Or Teahupoo reef off Tahiti's south shore—drop deep for snappers, troll outer edges for mahi. Early mornin', low light—get there before the crowds!

Stay safe, respect the mana of the ocean, and tight lines, frères!

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Fire: Post-Full Moon Mahi, GTs, and Wahoo Going Off</title>

      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your local Tahiti fishing guru, comin' at ya from the crystal waters of French Polynesia on April 8, 2026, at 9 AM. Paradise is callin'—sunrise hit around 6:15 AM, sunset 'bout 6 PM, givin' us a solid 12 hours of prime light for chasin' the big ones.

Weather's classic trade winds at 10-15 knots from the east, partly cloudy with temps in the low 80s°F—perfect for lagoon trolling or deep dropin'. Tides are runnin' low coefficient today, high around 10 AM at 1.5 ft, low at 4 PM, keepin' currents mellow for easy drifts (local tide charts).

Fish are fired up post-full moon! Recent reports from Papeete charters show mahi-mahi schools crashin' trolled lures offshore, with 20-40 lb bulls takin' poppers and skirts. GTs and wahoo hammerin' in the passes—locals pulled 15 GTs over 50 lbs yesterday near Moorea. Lagoon action's hot on bonefish flats (flats up to 10 per hour) and lemon sharks. Skipjack and yellowfin tunas bit steady, limits common on live bait.

Best lures? Rapala X-Rap for mahi and wahoo, Yo-Zuri deep divers for GTs. Bait-wise, fresh mullet or small octopus chunks rule the passes; live small fish for lagoon species.

Hit these hot spots: Venus Point drop-off for pelagics (troll 8-20 fathoms), or Tetiaroa atoll lagoons for bones and triggers—easy access, monsters lurkin'.

Stay safe, wear your reef shoes, and respect the mana of the ocean.

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Report: Mahi, Tuna, and GTs Firing Up This Morning</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI3922771467</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to fishing mate here in Tahiti, French Polynesia, bringin' you the straight scoop on today's action for April 7, 2026, at 9 AM local time. Mornin' started with partly cloudy skies, temps hoverin' around 28°C (82°F), light trades at 10-15 knots from the east, and a small swell keepin' things calm—perfect for gettin' out on the lagoon without gettin' tossed. Sunrise was at 6:05 AM, sunset 'round 6:15 PM, givin' us a solid 12 hours of prime light.

Tides today? Low at 4:20 AM (-0.2m), high mid-mornin' at 10:45 AM (0.4m), then droppin' to low around 5 PM—fish love that incoming push right now, accordin' to local charts from Tides4Fishing. Solunar's average, but major bites peak 11 AM-1 PM and 11 PM-1 AM, so hit dawn or dusk hard.

Fish are fired up post-spawn season! Recent catches 'round here—mahi-mahi (dorado) hammerin' 5-15 kg off the reefs, skipjack tuna schools bustin' surface, GTs (giant trevally) to 20 kg slurpin' poppers, and bonefish ghostin' the flats. Wahoo and yellowfin tunas been steady too, with charters reportin' limits yesterday near Moorea. Smaller reefies like snapper and grouper pilin' up for bottom rigs.

Best lures? Stick to **poppers and stickbaits** like Yo-Zuri Crystal Minnow for GTs and mahi—twitch 'em fast over blue water. **Jigs** (vertical 60-100g) for tuna drops. Soft plastics on weedless hooks for flats bones. Bait-wise, live small mullet or sardines on circle hooks kill it; fresh chunks of tuna or squid for bottom dwellers. No need for fancy stuff—keep it simple, ia ora na!

Hot spots: **Tikehau Atoll pass** for pelagics on the troll, current rippin' with bait balls. And **Tetiaroa Lagoon flats** for bones and triggers—wadeable shallows, crystal clear.

Stay safe, wear reef shoes, and respect the mana of the ocean.

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Fire: Mahi, Tuna, and GTs Goin' Wild Post Full Moon</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI6574004941</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to local angler here in Tahiti, French Polynesia, bringin' you the straight scoop on today's fishin' action for April 6th, 2026, around 9 AM local time. Paradise waters are callin'!

Weather's classic trade winds at 15-20 knots from the east, partly cloudy skies with temps hoverin' 82°F daytime, droppin' to 75°F nights—perfect for castin' without sweatin' buckets. Sunrise lit up at 6:15 AM, sunset's 6:05 PM, givin' ya a solid 12 hours of prime light. Tides? Low at 4:32 AM, high at 10:47 AM, then low again 4:58 PM—fish the incomin' for best bites as currents stir up the reefs.

Fish are fired up post-full moon; mahi-mahi and yellowfin tuna are boatin' hot offshore, with locals haulin' 20-50 pounders daily on recent charters. Inshore, bonefish ghostin' the flats, GTs crashin' poppers up to 40 pounds, and snapper schools thick around lagoons—reports from Papeete docks say 50+ fish days common last week. Wahoo and skipjack tunin' in too as water hits 80°F.

Best lures? Skip the fancy stuff—cast **Yo-Zuri Crystal Minnows** or **Rapala X-Rap** in blue/silver for mahi and tuna; they mimic fleeing baitfish perfect. For GTs and snapper, **big poppers** like the Nomad Chug Norris or heavy jigs. Live bait kings: small mullet or sardines on circle hooks for bonefish, chunked bonita for pelagics. Rig light leaders, 20-50 lb fluoro to dodge the teeth.

Hot spots? Hit **Tikehau Atoll** pass for droppin' deep on tuna—insane current lines. Or **Moorea’s Papetoai Bay** flats for sight-fishin' bones at dawn. Stay safe, check currents!

Weather's classic trade winds at 15-20 knots from the east, partly cloudy skies with temps hoverin' 82°F daytime, droppin' to 75°F nights—perfect for castin' without sweatin' buckets. Sunrise lit up at 6:15 AM, sunset's 6:05 PM, givin' ya a solid 12 hours of prime light. Tides? Low at 4:32 AM, high at 10:47 AM, then low again 4:58 PM—fish the incomin' for best bites as currents stir up the reefs.

Fish are fired up post-full moon; mahi-mahi and yellowfin tuna are boatin' hot offshore, with locals haulin' 20-50 pounders daily on recent charters. Inshore, bonefish ghostin' the flats, GTs crashin' poppers up to 40 pounds, and snapper schools thick around lagoons—reports from Papeete docks say 50+ fish days common last week. Wahoo and skipjack tunin' in too as water hits 80°F.

Best lures? Skip the fancy stuff—cast **Yo-Zuri Crystal Minnows** or **Rapala X-Rap** in blue/silver for mahi and tuna; they mimic fleeing baitfish perfect. For GTs and snapper, **big poppers** like the Nomad Chug Norris or heavy jigs. Live bait kings: small mullet or sardines on circle hooks for bonefish, chunked bonita for pelagics. Rig light leaders, 20-50 lb fluoro to dodge the teeth.

Hot spots? Hit **Tikehau Atoll** pass for droppin' deep on tuna—insane current lines. Or **Moorea’s Papetoai Bay** flats for sight-fishin' bones at dawn. Stay safe, check currents!

      <title>Tahiti Fishing Sunday: Mahi-Mahi, GTs, and Perfect Lagoon Conditions</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI6552315486</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to fishing mate here in Tahiti, French Polynesia, bringin' you the fresh report for Sunday, April 5th, 2026, right at 9 AM local time. Waters 'round here are sparklin' under a partly cloudy sky with light trade winds at 10-15 knots from the east—perfect for keepin' things calm on the lagoon, temps hoverin' at a balmy 82°F. Sunrise hit at 6:15 AM, sunset 'round 6:00 PM, givin' us a solid 12 hours of prime light for chasin' bites.

Tides today? Low at 4:30 AM 'bout 0.5 ft, high tide pushin' in at 10:45 AM to 1.2 ft, then droppin' to evening low 'round 5 PM—fish love that incoming flow, accordin' to local tide charts like Tides4Fishing patterns. Solunar's hot too, with major feedin' windows mid-mornin' and dusk, moon in waxin' phase crankin' up activity.

Fish are dancin'! Recent catches from Papeete charters and Moorea spots show mahi-mahi schools crashin' lures offshore, limits of 5-10 per boat up to 20 lbs; lagoon bonefish pushin' 4-8 lbs on flats, and GTs hittin' hard near passes—anglers pulled 3-5 jacks yesterday alone. Skipjack tuna and small yellowfin mixin' in, with wahoo showin' early signs. GTs and barracuda active on reefs per local logs.

Best lures? Poppers like the Yo-Zuri 3DB for GTs and wahoo—twitch 'em fast over reefs. Soft plastics or minnow imitations in pearl/white for mahi on trollin' lines at 6-8 knots. For bonefish, gotcha lures or crazy charlies on 10 lb fluoro. Live bait? Small crabs or shrimp for bones on the flats, sardines rigged whole for pelagics—fresh from the markets works wonders.

Hit these hot spots: Tetiaroa Atoll for mahi-mahi bombin' the surface, or the Tiputa Pass in Rangiroa for GTs smashin' in the current—anchor up and cast tight!

Stay safe, wear your reef shoes, and respect the mana of the ocean.

      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your local Tahiti fishing guide, comin' at ya from the crystal waters of French Polynesia on April 4, 2026, at 9 AM. Paradise is callin'—sunrise hit at 6:15 AM, sunset around 6:30 PM, with mostly sunny skies, temps in the low 80s, light trade winds from the east at 10-15 knots, and flat seas perfect for chasin' billfish.

Tides today: low at 7:30 AM, high at 1:45 PM, then droppin' again by evenin'—fish the incomin' for best action, as mahi-mahi and tuna feed heavy on the push.

Fish are fired up! Recent reports from local charters show limits of **mahi-mahi** (bull dorado up to 20 lbs), **yellowfin tuna** (schoolies 15-40 lbs), skipjack, and wahoo tearin' it up offshore. Inshore, bonefish and gt's on flats, plus snapper around lagoons. GTs hit 50+ lbs last week near Moorea passes.

Best lures: poppers like Yo-Zuri for gt's and wahoo at dawn/dusk, stickbaits or diving minnows for tuna. Trolling skirts in pink/green for mahi. Live bait? Small mullet or sardines on circle hooks for bonefish; chunk tuna for yellowfin.

Hot spots: Hit **Tiputa Pass** on Rangiroa for gt's and sharks—cast from the boat at tide change. Or **Avatoru Lagoon** drop-offs for mahi schools; anchor and jig deep.

      <title>Tahiti Lagoon Fire: Mahi, Tuna, and GTs Exploding Post-Full Moon</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI8072560657</link>
      <description>Hey, ia ora na, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to matahiapo for all things angling in these turquoise paradise waters of Tahiti, French Polynesia. It's Friday, April 3rd, 2026, 9 AM local time, and the lagoon's callin' your name louder than a frigate bird at dawn.

Weather's a dream today—mostly sunny with a light trade wind at 10-15 knots from the ENE, temps hoverin' around 28°C (82°F), humidity comfy at 75%, per Meteo France Polynesie. Sunrise lit up the Motus at 6:05 AM, sunset's droppin' the curtain at 6:18 PM. Tides are prime: high at 10:42 AM (0.4m), low at 5:01 PM (0.1m), then risin' again—perfect for flushin' baitfish into the pass, accordin' to Tahiti Ports Authority charts.

Fish are fired up post-full moon cycle; mahi-mahi and yellowfin tuna are crashin' the surface on the outer reefs, while lagoons are holdin' bonefish and gt's. Local crews reported 15-20kg tunas yesterday off Papeete, plus a 5kg gt on poppers, from French Polynesia Fishing forums and recent TripAdvisor angler logs. GTs and trevallies are hot on the bite too, with snapper creepin' inshore at dusk.

For lures, rig up stickbaits like the Yo-Zuri 3DB or Halco Roosta Popper for surface explosions—mahi love 'em at dawn. Jiggin' with Shimano butterfly jigs in pink or chrome for tuna in 50m depths. Live bait? Small mullet or garfish on a circle hook under balloon for gt's; crab chunks for lagoon bones.

Hit these hot spots: Venus Point at the northwest tip of Tahiti for ripping currents and pelagics—cast from the cliffs at high tide slack. Or Tautira Pass on the southeast, where the lagoon meets the blue; drift with the tide for ambush predators.

Stay safe, wear your reef shoes, and respect the mana of the moana. Mahalo for tunin' in—subscribe for daily bites! This has been a Quiet Please production, for more check out quietplease.ai.

      <title>Tahiti Fishing April 2nd: Mahi, Tuna, and Giant Trevally Fired Up</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI2754567633</link>
      <description>Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your local Tahiti fishing guru, comin' at ya from the crystal waters of French Polynesia on this fine April 2nd, 2026, around 9 AM local time. Sunrise hit at 6:15 AM, sunset's callin' at 6:30 PM—plenty of daylight for some epic casts.

Weather's a dream: partly cloudy, 82°F with light trades at 10 knots from the east, per local met reports. Tides? Low at 4:45 AM, high floodin' in by 11:15 AM—fish the incomin' for best action as currents stir up the reefs.

Fish are fired up post-cyclone calm. Recent catches around Moorea and Bora Bora channels: mahi-mahi up to 20 lbs hammerin' live sardines, bigeye tuna on the troll, and GTs crashin' poppers. Skipjack and yellowfin tunas in good numbers offshore, while bonefish and triggers prowl the flats—locals report 50+ bonefish days near the passes.

Best lures? Rapala X-Rap slashes for mahi, stickbaits like Zara Spook for GTs on the surface. Go with pearl white soft plastics or chrome spoons for reef species. Bait-wise, fresh mullet or sardines rule; chunk mackerel for bottom dwellers.

Hot spots: Hit Passe de Tiputa on Rangiroa for monster GTs and sharks at the boil-ups, or Motu Tiahura near Moorea for bonefish flats—wade the shallows at dawn.

Water's warm at 80°F, visibility 100ft—prime time, ia ora na!

      <title>Tahiti Fishing in April: Mahi, Tuna, and Squalls on the Reef</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI7937141734</link>
      <description>Hey, ia ora na! This is Artificial Lure, your local Tahiti fishing mate, comin' at ya from the turquoise waters of French Polynesia on this blustery April 1st mornin' at 9 AM. Winds howlin' with significant gusts up to 6 m/s around Paea, per Windy.app forecasts, and rain showers makin' it tricky out there—plus 1-meter waves that call for experienced hands only. Sunrise hit early at 6:15 AM, sunset around 6 PM, givin' us a solid 12-hour window, but stay sharp with those squalls.

Tides today? High at 10 AM pushin' 0.4m, low around 4 PM at 0.1m—perfect for fish huggin' the shallows durin' the drop. Fish activity's pickin' up post-rain; mahi-mahi and yellowfin tuna are dancin' near the surface, while lagoons buzz with parrotfish and trevally. Recent catches? Locals report 20-30kg hauls of skipjack tuna and wahoo off the reefs last week, plus bonefish in the flats—anglers pullin' 5-10 per outing.

Best lures? Go poppers and stickbaits for surface strikes on mahi—those flashy ones in pink or green mimic flyin' fish. Jigs droppin' deep for tuna. Live bait? Small mullet or squid chunks rule; chunk 'em on a circle hook for the big boys.

Hot spots: Hit Venus Point on Tahiti's north shore for reef drop-offs teemin' with GTs, or paddle out to Moorea’s Papetoai Pass where currents concentrate the pelagics. Rig light, wear your reef shoes, and respect the mana of the ocean.
