Marina Del Rey/Santa Monica - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

connordoyle · 11-06-2012, 09:41 PM

Does anyone kayak fish in the Marina Del Rey/Venice/Santa monica area? I go out on the new del mar and spitfire quite a bit out of MDR, sometimes we catch great fish not to far from the marina at all. I also fish the venice pier at least once a week. Just look for the youngest, whitest dude out there and its me! ha. I'm looking to get a beginner kayak set up and im greatly interested if anyone has any luck up here. I live in the DTLA area so obviously this is the most convient area for me.

Hope to hear from you all soon!

thanks,

Connor

Lots of good places inside and outside the harbor there. Most outside are going to require GPS and a fishfinder to locate. Start by fishing around the docks and bait barges until you feel comfortable enough to try more.
