The Coasters made it seven games unbeaten and earned a place in the third qualifying round of the FA Cup with victory over Bamber Bridge on Saturday.
Tom Whelan and George Wilson grabbed their first Coasters goals, along with Danny Ormerod and Luca Thomas, adding to their tallies for the season.
The Coasters came into the game with growing momentum after a 5-0 win away to Peterborough Sports last weekend, moving them up to second in National League North.
Fylde started at pace as Danny Mayor played Danny Ormerod through the left channel, but the cross was blocked. Ormerod then had a second go at the cross and found Thomas, whose shot was well saved.
