How much attention do you pay to the LJ webcam? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I've never even looked at the launch web. The buoy is out off the canyon and will show bigger waves than will typically break at the pier. And the shores is almost all ways smaller than at the pier. Wind is a bigger deal for me. Swells are only stressful at the launch n land but wind can make your day miserable. Mike

Are you permitted to launch out of LJ Cove? It looks to be the most sheltered spot, as long as you don't mind the stairs and parking.

I don't think you can launch from the Cove.

On Monday Scripps was 6-7 feet. White water everywhere by the Cove but the launch area was 2 feet. Very protected area most days. I have seen this happen many times now.
