This is Artificial Lure with your Phuket fishing report. Light southwest monsoon pattern around the island today: afternoon seas running about 0.8–1.2 meters with a steady onshore breeze, sky partly cloudy, a few passing showers. Air temps sat in the low 30s, humidity high as usual, but visibility offshore stayed decent. Sun popped over the horizon just after 6 a.m., and that first hour of light was the best bite window. Sunset was just after 6:40 p.m., and the last glow of the day brought a shorter but punchy feeding spell, especially inshore. Tides around Phuket ran on a typical Andaman mixed semi‑diurnal cycle: a solid morning high pushing good current around the headlands, falling through late morning into early afternoon, then a building evening push. That moving water turned the fish on; the slack patches were noticeably slower. Inshore, the usual cast of characters showed up. Local longtail skippers reported modest numbers of queenfish and small GTs smashing bait around Racha Yai and the south end of Coral Island, mostly on the turn of the tide. A few bluefin trevally and school-size Spanish mackerel came to boats working just off Cape Panwa and the channel edges toward Chalong. Offshore, charter crews working the drop‑offs beyond Racha Noi and toward the Similan line picked up a mixed bag: scattered yellowfin and skipjack tuna, a couple of wahoo, and the odd sailfish raised but not all converted. Nothing red‑hot, but enough action to keep decks bloody, especially when the birds started working bait balls mid‑morning. Best artificials today were small to mid‑size casting metals and stickbaits in natural baitfish patterns. Fast‑retrieved 20–40 g chrome jigs drew reaction hits from trevally and mackerel on the reef edges. Offshore, skirted lures in blue‑white, black‑purple, and pink‑squid patterns trolled at 6–8 knots took most of the tuna and wahoo. Diving plugs with a tight wobble also produced along color changes and current lines. For bait, live scad and small fusiliers were the top producers around structure, followed by strips of squid and fresh-cut sardine on running sinker rigs. Reef anglers soaking squid over rubble patches in 15–25 meters around Koh Maiton and between Racha Yai and Racha Noi found snapper, grouper, and the usual pickers—nothing huge, but steady table fish when the current was right. If you’re heading out tomorrow on a similar pattern, two hot spots to circle on your chart: – The eastern drop‑off of Racha Noi, where the morning high pushes bait up the slope and draws in GTs, tuna, and the occasional dogtooth. – The southern and western sides of Coral Island, especially around the rocky points, for early‑morning queenfish, blue runners, and school GTs on light tackle. Plan your sessions around that first light push and the evening build, keep an eye on the current, and match your lures to the local bait size and color. Do that, and Phuket will treat you well.
