PV by way of Redondo? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

What Saba_Slayer said.

I seem to remember it's 14 miles from Cabrillo ramp to the Dominator. From King Harbor to Dominator is about 4.5 miles.

I did a beach launch out of RAT Beach for the first time last Spring looking for wsb. It was a lot of work hauling the yak back up the hill, but I intend to do it again next year. You have to pick a small surf day. I didn't, and it made for an interesting landing.

but the bad part is the uphill climb at the end of the day.

.........I almost puked at the top

You guys are awesome and then some. I’d say you just saved me a shitty day or few

I’ll stick to shore dives down there.

I have seen a few people taking inflatable kayaks down the Honeymoon Cove to fish the kelp bed.

I once saw someone climbing up the trail at Christmas Tree Cove with ~8ft kayak over his head. His buddies carried his fishing rods.

With a small kayak or inflatable, it's doable.

We've done the trip from Redondo to flat rock, its a long haul but it is doable. I don't recall the exact distance but I believe it was about 4 miles so it was more than an hour just to get where we wanted to be.

I've gone to PV from king harbor in my Pro Angler almost every time I am out there.

I'm out of shape but at an easy pace it takes about an hour.

I want to fish Bluff Cove, so, SO bad but have yet to figure out how to comfortably get down there...

Getting down there is the easy part! coming back up is problem! Especially after fishing all day. Plus the launch is not easy. The transition from path to water is very rocky, especially if the tide is low.

on a side note, with all of these new powered skateboards, hoverboards, and peddle assist mountain bikes, we need a powered kayak cart to help us get up these trails!
