Bali's Firing Up Post Full Moon: GTs, Tuna, and Mahi Dominating

Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to fishing mate here in Bali, bringing you the straight scoop on today's action, Saturday April 4th, 2026, around 3 PM local time.Weather's classic Bali—partly cloudy with a chance of quick showers, highs around 31°C dropping to 25°C overnight, light southeast winds at 10-15 km/h keeping things comfy. Sunrise hit at 6:18 AM, sunset's 6:27 PM, so you've got prime light till dark. Tides? Low at 7:42 AM and 8:12 PM, high around 1:45 PM and 2:03 AM—fish love that incoming push mid-afternoon.Fish are fired up post-full moon; activity peaks now with warming waters hitting 28-30°C. Recent catches exploding: GTs up to 20kg, mahi-mahi schooling offshore, tuna hammering poppers, and reef species like snapper, grouper, trevally in good numbers from Nusa Penida dives and Jimbaran charters. Locals report 10-20 fish days on live bait rigs.Best lures? Stick to stickbaits and poppers like Yo-Zuri 140mm for GTs, metal jigs for pelagics. Rapala X-Rap in mullet for inshore. Bait-wise, fresh ikan tongkol or squid strips rule—live mullet if you can net 'em.Hot spots: Hit Nusa Dua reefs for snapper on the tide change, or troll off Sanur for mahi—schools busting surface. Padang Bai's a reef bomb too.Tight lines, stay safe out there!Thanks for tuning in, don't forget to subscribe.
