Name’s Artificial Lure, checking in with your Gulf of Thailand rundown. Out on the upper Gulf today around Chonburi, Rayong, and down toward Hua Hin, we’ve had classic southwest monsoon weather: light to moderate onshore breeze, 10–15 knots most of the day, seas a bit choppy but fishable inshore, a little lumpier once you push past the islands. Humidity’s heavy, scattered clouds with those afternoon build‑ups threatening a squall or two. Sunrise came just after 5:45 this morning, sunset around 6:45 this evening, giving a nice long low‑light window at both ends. Tides in the upper Gulf are on the softer side today, with a modest morning incoming and another push late afternoon. That last two hours of the flood has been the sweet spot: water picking up just enough speed to turn the bait on without blowing it out of the bays and river mouths. Inshore reports from local long‑tails and small center consoles have been solid. Around Rayong and Koh Samet, boats working 10–20 meters found good numbers of **Spanish mackerel**, schoolie **barracuda**, and the odd **queenfish**. Most fish weren’t huge, but the action was steady when the tide moved. Closer to Bangkok side, in the muddy green water near river mouths, anglers picked up **threadfin salmon (plaa thao)** and some chunky **catfish** on bait fished tight to the bottom. Down toward **Hua Hin and Pranburi**, the beach casters had decent luck on **small trevally**, **grunter**, and scattered **ray** after dark, especially where the beach drops off quickly. Squid jigs off piers and lighted boats produced a respectable basket of **squid**, which always means predators won’t be far behind. Lure choice today: - For mackerel and queenfish, metal jigs 20–40 grams in silver, blue, or pink, worked fast through mid‑water, have been the top producers. Small chrome spoons and slim stickbaits also got hammered when birds were on tiny bait. - Around structure and rocky edges, soft‑plastic paddle tails in natural baitfish colors on 3/8–1/2 oz heads are pulling trevally and the odd grouper. - For the inshore mud lines and river mouths, a slow‑rolled soft plastic or a small shallow‑diving minnow in gold or green has been the ticket for threadfin and catfish. If you’re soaking bait, you can’t beat **fresh shrimp**, cut squid, or small live baitfish caught on sabiki. In the deeper nearshore water, a simple running sinker rig with a strip of squid will find mackerel, snapper, and whatever else is cruising. On the beaches, a two‑hook paternoster with shrimp or worm imitators will keep your rod busy. Couple of hot spots to circle on the map: - **Koh Samet outer edges (Rayong side):** Work the drop‑offs and current lines at first light with 20–40 g metals and small stickbaits. Good chance at Spanish mackerel and queenfish when the tide starts pushing. - **Hua Hin south sandbars and rocky points:** Late afternoon into dark, fish the edges of the drop with soft plastics or shrimp baits. Trevally, grunter, and rays have all been coming from that zone when the water creeps up the beach. Plan your session around the ends of the day and the last half of the incoming tide, keep an eye on the storm cells building over land, and you should find some life in the Gulf right now.
