Launching........ - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Get out and try it - there will always be days where La Jolla is not-so-bueno for noobs, and there are other days when County Line is not-so-bueno for noobs.

The trick is not to figure out which beach is better for noobs... the trick is to get some experience and not be a noob.

Just make sure everything is stored below decks and everything is leashed.

If you're worried about losing stuff, then get out there and practice without any gear. It'll be worth it.

Sounds good. Thank you.

I have less than a dozen surf launches under my belt.
I believe 2 were at LJ shores and in my experience it is BY FAR the easiest launch/ landing. Very sheltered.
My go to spot ( though I've been out of the game for a couple years) is near Big Rock, just south of Windansea. Good place to avoid the crowds, but a little more work.
This summer I am hoping to launch somewhere off of OB or Point Loma and fish that kelp.
You just have to time it right and hope for the best.
I have had one major yard sale. It comes with the territory. Just make sure your things are tied to the boat and don't F- around.
