I showed up at 5:30 and watched everyone unload and launch. My first time at LaJolla and without my fishing buddies I was alittle intimidated. I was hesitant to launch due to the overcast weather, then decided I was already here so lets give it a go. Easy launch (my 4th beach launch ever) so i was feelin good. Paddled to the kelp to make bait, realized I forgot to pack my sabikis. Oh well, I worked the kelp with strips of squid. Caught several little calicos. fished for a few hours and decided to go, them WHAM my pole was bouncin. Started crankin and was stuck in the weeds. 10 minutes of fighting the kelp this fat calico appears
next cast was a decent Sheephead. Headed back in by 10:30, beautiful landing. I felt I had a good day for being a LaJolla rookie
It was pleasure to meet all the peeps I spoke to and hope to meet up again real soon
