Halibut Hunting - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I think I'm going to target halibut for the first time on the yak this weekend. I have landed a couple of legals, but only accidentally on plastics while targeting bass in the harbor. I know there are some amazing halibut fishermen on this forum, and I was wondering if anyone could help me out a little. You guys use a triple swivel rig with a heavy weight? Sliding sinker rig? I think I'm gonna launch out of Huntington Harbor and just pounding sand. Would going out of Newport or Dana Point be better? Or should I make the drive to Mission bay? Thanks for any help!
