thinking about heading out to la jolla on Saturday to try my luck at some rockfishing. looked at the surf forecast and its saying 2-3 ft. this will be my first time launching from the beach.... so the question is, is that manageable? thanks guys

Yes. wear your PFD just in case.

if you have a big set of nuts. always wear a life vest. we do not want to recover your kayak with live vest on board , without a body. i am no expert , but all hell could be breaking loose on west side beaches , and protected coves like lj ,are manageable as far as surf launches: kayak-surfer:.

Thanks guys... I'm think I'm going to give it a shot. If I show up and it looks to harry for me I'll just give it a go another time. And for sure I'll have a pfd. I have a cheap one at the moment, any recommendations on good pfd for kayak fishing?

of course check the reports. report could be 3 or 4 feet , and at the lj launch might only be 1 - 2 . i think you will be ok this saturday. the storm has moved on . i have been looking at current reports for north Los angeles and it is pretty small. lj should be similar.

tie down everything or you will loose it if you rollover
