Komodo Fire: GTs, Mahi, and Wahoo Lighting Up Post Full Moon

Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure, your local Komodo fishing guru, comin' at ya from the dragon's backyard on April 25, 2026, around 3 PM local time. Waters 'round here are crystal clear today, with light winds from the southeast at 10-15 knots, temps hoverin' at 82°F under partly cloudy skies—perfect for a day on the boat, no rain in sight.Sunrise was at 5:48 AM, sunset 'round 5:42 PM, so make those evening runs count. Tides are average today: low at 2:17 AM, high 8:48 AM, low 2:57 PM, high 9:45 PM—fish the incoming around midday for best bites, as solunar charts show good activity from 10 AM to noon.Fish are fired up post full moon fade! Recent catches from Labuan Bajo charters report GTs up to 50kg hammering poppers, solid mahi schools offshore (20-40 fish per trip), wahoo on skirts, and snapper reefs lit with 10-20 per drop. Tuna's been steady too, yellowfin averaging 15-30kg, plus barracuda slashing surface.For lures, stick to stickbaits like the Yo-Zuri 140 for GTs, diving minnows in silver for wahoo, and soft plastics on jigheads for reefies. Live bait? Small trevs or mullet on circle hooks can't be beat—troll 'em slow at 5 knots.Hit these hot spots: Banta Island pinnacles for monster GTs on the drop-offs, and the Shotgun reef north of Komodo for pelagics crashing poppers. Stay safe out there, check currents, and respect the dragons.Thanks for tunin' in, folks—subscribe for more Komodo tips!
