Depending on the swell you'll see areas where the waves pop up consistently. Check those spots out. How deep depends on a lot of factors like how big the swell is and how big the structure is. But, I fished a tournament (and won) with out a fish finder. I didn't know the area (it wasn't Laguna), but I was able to pick out rock pinnacles in about 35' based on the waves. It takes practice, but it's worth the study.
