Long Beach Launch Questions - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

i've launched rosie's (beach), clairemont (beach) belmont pier (beach), 72nd (beach) and 69th (both beach and bay side)

Rosie's is one of the spots i would avoid. one of the more crowded locations of the list. Clairemont is better as it is a bit more south (closer paddle to chaffee), less crowded, bathrooms, and has showers to clean your gear off. 72nd is second choice as its just like clairemont, but the sand can be VERY steep.

island chaffee doesn't have as much as you would think. better off hitting some small wrecks around the south end of the breakwall since they're a bit too small for most serious boat anglers to care about.
