This is Artificial Lure with your Mauritius fishing report. We’ve had a classic early winter pattern on the island. Trade winds have been blowing mainly from the east‑southeast around 12–18 knots today, with the strongest gusts along the east and south coasts. Skies have been partly cloudy, a few passing showers on the windward side, but plenty of clear windows on the west and northwest. Air temps have been sitting around 23–27°C, and the lagoon water is a comfortable 24–25°C. Tides today have been running on a moderate cycle. Low tide came mid‑morning, with a decent push of water on the incoming through early afternoon, then another drop toward evening. That flooding tide over the reef flats and into the passes really woke things up; the falling evening tide has been tightening bait along the drop‑offs. Sunrise was just after 6 a.m., with sunset just before 6 p.m., giving us those short winter days Mauritians know well. The bite has lined up nicely around first light and the last two hours before dark, especially when those windows overlap with the tide changes. Inshore, lagoon fishing has been lively. On the west coast, around Flic‑en‑Flac and Tamarin, boats and kayaks reported good numbers of **trevally**—GT, bigeye, and bluefin—smashing bait on the edges of the reef and near the passes. Small **jobfish**, **emperors**, and **snapper** have also come over the rails, plus the usual **rabbitfish** and **goatfish** for the pan. Best producers inside the lagoon have been: - **Topwater stickbaits** and small poppers in white or sardine patterns at dawn for trevally. - 40–60 g **metal jigs** worked fast along channel edges. - Soft plastics on 3/8–1/2 oz jig heads, in natural brown/green, for emperors and snapper. - For bait, fresh **pilchard**, cut **squid**, and small live bait caught on sabikis have been hard to beat. Offshore, boats heading out from Grand Baie, Black River, and the southeast passes have done well along the drop‑offs and FADs. The water is cooling but still holding life. Crews have reported **yellowfin tuna** in the 10–30 kg range, mixed **skipjack**, and a few nice **dorado** cruising current lines. A handful of boats have tagged or landed smaller **blue marlin** and the odd **black marlin**, plus some solid **wahoo** along the contour lines. Top offshore offerings: - Skirted **trolling lures** in lumo green, purple‑black, and pink‑white for marlin and tuna. - Diving **minnow plugs** and jet heads for wahoo along the 100–300 m line. - Chunked or live **bonito** bridled and slow‑trolled around FADs for bigger yellowfin. Two hot spots to keep an eye on: - **Le Morne / Black River canyon**: Work the drop‑off where the lagoon spills into deep water. Morning tide plus first light has been excellent for GTs on topwater and tuna offshore. - **Grand Port / Mahebourg passes** on the southeast: Strong tidal flow, good bait concentrations, and mixed action—trevally and jobfish inside, tuna and wahoo outside when the sea allows. Night anglers on the calmer west side have found **reef snapper** and **grouper** taking cut bait and squid on the outer lagoon edges and around structure, especially on the start of the incoming tide. Keep an eye on the wind; if the trades stiffen, tuck in behind the west or northwest for comfort. Use lighter leaders in the clear lagoon water during the day, but step up your fluorocarbon around the reef and when targeting GTs—they’re not shy when they’re fired up. That’s the latest from the Indian Ocean around Mauritius. Thanks for tuning in, and don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss a report.
