Maps
 

Here are a few maps of the Redondo area...
The launch will be super easy as it's a dock type launch and the entrance of the harbor is a very safe entry and exit to the outer waters. You should get a map of the area or google some info to find the many artificial reefs and wrecks outside the harbor. The Redondo reef is only about 1 mile outside and the Hermosa Reef is just to the north of the harbor break wall.
Notice that big underwater canyon right in front of the harbor....it drops to over 300' deep within 1 mile of the harbor.

This last map has some shaded areas I've added and this is the only legal areas to fish in the harbor...on the left side of the harbor near the bend in the wall is where the bait barge is located. Those three big dots on the left side are three green bouys that mark the perimeter of the legal areas.
