Launch from the shores and head straight out for about 3/4 of a mile. You will see a thin yellow buoy. The buoy is the end of the protected area. Continue atleast 100 yards past that buoy to be safe. You will then be in the kelp

. OR to make things easier just head for where the other kayaks are. You will be able to see them from the beach at the launch and will definitely see them on your paddle out to the buoy. I promise that if you have at least a half a brain you will easily figure out where to legally fish

... It's really easy unless you're an idiot, in which case follow the kayakers with the helmets and enjoy the caves.
Good luck!
