Going to launch at La Jolla Shores first time

[Scoot]

Unfortunately I physically can’t fish from a
Kayak anymore, but I still lurk on here!
Fished Tuesday morning, we got it to go WFO
with bait but there was a lot of fish inside! 50’
of water. Bass and cuda! Hope that helps

I no longer have a kayak at the moment, but here is what i found out about la jolla kelp...

* great idea to stand and check the timing of the waves. see how the timing of the swell is.
* dont bring too much gear with you for the first time
* latch everything down. i even lay my rods down and tie them to the yak in case something happens.
* REALLY secure everything when you are about to go into the waves when heading in. this is where most people lose tackle.

aside from that, its basically like fishing from a skiff with the benefit that there is no kelp too thick for you to fish in from a kayak. goodluck, and make sure to stay safe.
