Fishy fishy....
I predict that new hobie fishing kayak sale will go down.
fishing limit/ season is cut short, catch is down, yellowtail disappeared. Craigslist kayak sale will be up ! |

The urchins definitely played a roll. I’m no expert but I think the commercial guys harvest the red urchin and SoCal is now full of purple urchin. They also want the eggs and when there’s not a lot of food the urchins go dormant and don’t reproduce.

Never fished in Baja? Not a lot of kelp gulfside, but yellowtail aplenty. Easy to catch too.

I wouldn't mind seeing kayak resale prices go down since I'm in the market for my first one right now. It sucks about the kelp situation and I don't think anyone knows the exact answers. There's still lots of yellowtail around- offshore I think it's better than it was when I used to fish back in the 90's, but obviously offshore isn't as accessible for kayak anglers. Of course there's still lots of nice rocky reefs and outcroppings to target
