If you found a DIY sabiki rod, VHF radio or a nice set plier/cutters please let me know.
Fishing was slow for us we caught a few greenies and a bunch of Spanish macks. We saw a couple of boils, I paddled to towards them with a lively greenie, but no love. Still looking for my first yellow in La Jolla.

Sorry to hear that. I'm a newbie and I am paranoid about losing gear in the surf. Especially on the way in. I breakdown, wrap, leash, and secure everything coming in.
