Channel Islands after work

I plan on hitting CIH after work tomorrow. Will take my trolling motor and see if the wind has not picked up too bad to shoot for Hueneme canyon, if not just tool around the break wall. Will probably be at the launch at 4:30-4:45. Do I bring my bait tank or just wing it is the question.

I might be there as well, blue ram 1500 parked next to the CG building. PA14 with an ugly dude out there somewhere.

The winds show 8+ in your face on the way back from Hueneme, thank goodness for trolling motors. We’re forecasted 40% thunderstorms until 2. It should be interesting.

If I don’t go to Hueneme, I might head north and ride the wind and swell back.

PM if you want to meet up.

Well it was a little too windy when I got out to the breakwall to head for Hueneme alone so fished the breakwall for a while. Got some smalls with one really good hit taking line but did not get a hook set. Went into the harbor and met up with Beer Me and fished in there until about 8. Got a few small Calicos and macs and had a good time.

Where is the CG station, I just picked up a PA 12 and so far been launching from the boat ramp on Victoria but that's a long paddle to get out to the breakwater.

Hey Cronus,


Ok I think saw it when I was giving the pa12 a shake down. Its like a small steep ramp. Can you actually back a trailer down there or is it unload and carry. I have my PA12 on a kayak trailer.

Thanks

I have never seen anyone back down it, just carry. At the bottom of it there is a steep little step that may be trouble for a trailer, if low tide there is a beach there, at high tide its right up to the bottom of the ramp. They did recently dredge the harbor so the step at the bottom is small right now but I wouldnt trust a trailer backdown. My kayak has a wheel-in-the-keel but I still use my cart for the short 50ft walk.

The harbor now allows you to launch and land from kiddy beach.
Right in front of the bathrooms there is a sign that says swimmers on one side and kayakers on the other.
I see people park in the dirt next to kiddy beach. Not sure if that’s ok or not.
Most of the kayakers I see launch out of there including myself park at kiddy beach. It does get crazy in that lot.
Hope that helps

Low tide so I did it

There’s a set of bricks that make the ramp. High tides are perfect for the trailer.
