Hi All, Newbie Here, LJ Question - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Sdspeed · 09-03-2012, 04:58 PM

With the MLPA? Where in the La Jolla Kelp beds are open and how far of a paddle is it to get to any of the kelp if I launch from the Shores? Also if you launch from Shelter Island or? Are the Pt Loma kelp beds do-able. I've only fished there from small power boats. Thanks all, glad I found this forum, learning alot in a short time!

here are the maps for the mlpa

la jolla kelp is about 3/4 mile out from the la jolla shores launch

PL kelp doable from shelter depending on your stamina
if you are going to fish the point loma kelp make sure you time the tides, you want the tide going out when you are and coming in when you are and it will make it much easier

it may be easier to launch out of mission bay and hit the north PL kelp, again time the tides.

I take it that Red is no go and Blue is open? Does this map change during different parts of the year?

Thanks for the alternate to Point Loma !

red is NO go and blue you can only take bait to make it less complicated.

So for my simple and feeble mind I need to paddle out past both the blue and red areas if I plan on fishing for anything to keep!

tks

To make it simple, paddle out past the two yellow buoys and keep paddling to Point La Jolla (just a little farther) which sticks out and is a great landmark.
