    ### Tidal Report
    Today, the tidal conditions are favorable for fishing, with a high tide at around 9:30 AM and a low tide at about 3:30 PM. The tidal range is moderate, which should help in stirring up the fish.

    ### Weather
    The weather is looking good, with clear skies and mild temperatures. Expect light winds out of the northwest at about 5-10 mph, making for a comfortable day on the water.

    ### Sunrise and Sunset
    Sunrise is at 6:34 AM, and sunset will be at 4:54 PM, giving you a full day to get out and catch some fish.

    ### Fish Activity
    Fish activity has been strong in various areas. Here are some highlights from yesterday’s catches:

    - In the Bay Area, particularly around Emeryville and Berkeley, boats like the California Dawn II and the Sea Wolf reported significant catches. The California Dawn II brought in 330 Dungeness crabs and 100 rockfish, while the Sea Wolf caught 210 Dungeness crabs and 86 rockfish.
    - In Bodega Bay, the New Sea Angler had a successful day with 210 Dungeness crabs and 210 rockfish.
    - Offshore from Monterey, boats like the Caroline and Check Mate caught large numbers of rockfish, with some lingcod mixed in.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For rockfish and lingcod, using live bait such as anchovies or squid is highly effective. Jigs and lures that mimic these baits, like curly tail grubs or metal jigs, also work well.
    For Dungeness crab, crab pots baited with squid, anchovies, or fish guts are the way to go.

    ### Hot Spots
    - **Bodega Bay**: This area has been producing a lot of Dungeness crabs and rockfish. The islands and reefs here are hot spots for both species.
    - **Emeryville**: The waters around Emeryville have been bustling with fish activity, especially for rockfish and lingcod. The Berkeley Flats and the Emeryville Rock Pile are good spots to try.
    - **Monterey Bay**: For those looking to catch a variety of fish, including rockfish and lingcod, the areas around Monterey Bay are highly recommended.

    Overall, it's shaping up to be a great day for fishing along the California coast. Make sure to check the latest regulations and ensure you have all the necessary gear and permits before you head out.
