newbie... just a few questions... help appreciated...
So after finally getting my kayak, (malibu pro explorer) I decided to take it out to SD bay. I launched at tidelands and fished the columns of the bridge. I ended the day with 5 spotties and was completely stoked about my new fishing adventure... I'm looking forward to hitting la jolla shores in February. I just had a few questions regarding the recent mlpa closures... How far of a paddle is it to the la jolla kelp from la jolla shores? Are there any groups that go out on a weekly basis... I have yet to convince some buddies to buy their kayak, I guess they are a bit squimish about encountering sharks in this area... Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Welcome aboard.
Its about a 30 min paddle to the kelp, there are always sharks. I am sure the regulars who fish that spot as their backyard will get in touch with you. !

lot's of good guys and gals here, with alot of great info "to share"...love SD and the Bay of which you are speaking of, I fished there with Jim Sammons one time, who taught me alot on tides there, I am sure you will find a "willing" fishin Buddy, well probably Buddies here somewhere...welcome to the addiction, we all meet when we can in various locations along the coast, not MLPA's coast...had to stick that in...and the New Guy buys donuts...Matt likes the maple bars but I think a nice mix is just as yummy at 5;30 in the morning at the launch

The paddle is not far at all at least now. When the MLPA is in effect the paddle will be about 30 mins to the edge of the reserve. There are a few guys and a gal that frequent the Jewel weekly and the majority are very nice folks. The sharks are the least of yours worries. The biggest problem is the seal and sea lions! They are the ones to watch out for. Makos are more of a worry to me than GW's. Have fun, never fear, catch fish!

What you should do is always be aware of all your surroundings at all times when playing with the fishies, it's not the sharks or seals, yeah you should pay them attention, but the guy running the PB by you at 40 mph
or that pesky jet skier that isn't watching where he is going... As far as "Pt Loma kelp" yeah I have, fun stuff. as far as "the dredded first surf launch" I didn't do it until I took a surf lesson with some "experience", however start off slow, if it looks too big to handle...it is...if the wind is blowing at the launch, probably not going to die down, but again lots of good info in here, I will hit you up when I am headed your way...which should hopefully be soon...it's that time of year again...go get um |
