About this listen
Tides are runnin' low coefficient today—lows around 4 AM and 3 PM, with sunrise at 5:45 AM and sunset at 6:15 PM, perfect for dawn and dusk bites when the solunar peaks hit hard. Weather's balmy, 28-32°C, mostly sunny with light easterly winds at 10-15 kph, keepin' seas calm for bangka trips.
Fish are fired up in the warming currents—tuna, skipjack, and mackerel schools crashin' the surface, while snapper and grouper hug the reefs. Recent catches from Palawan and Cebu divers report 20-30 kg hauls daily: yellowfin tuna up to 15 kg, bigeye scad in buckets, plus jacks and trevallies hittin' hard. Coral trout and sweetlips roundin' out the cooler.
Best lures? Jiggin' with shiny metal kastmasters or poppers in silver/blue for pelagics—work 'em fast over drop-offs. Soft plastics like paddle tails on 40g heads for bottom dwellers. Live bait kings: sardines or anchovies on circle hooks for tuna runs, squid strips for reefies. Rig simple, 20-50 lb braid.
Hot spots? Head to Tubbataha Reefs for trophy snappers, or Apo Island's walls off Negros—schools thick there now. Hit 'em early, stay safe on the water, and respect no-take zones.
