When I referenced the second subset of tidal data I noticed that it just was not right. If you add the negative tide and the wind coming from the west/east direction I don't think you will have any water flow.

I would wait for a better day conditions wise. No reason to do that place on such a difficult day.

If you do go out, good luck.

I can assure you that you WILL NOT follow that path and your 8.47 mile trek will be something closer to 10miles (+/- 5miles). As soon as you get past Pier 400 you will see so much open water and its likely that you will want to fish it all. Another thing to consider is the fact that windfinder is correct about 1% of the time, the tides are usually accurate but the winds are always off by 5kts or so (+/- 10kts). Don't trust the wind reports, the winds can change without notice and if you're not prepared you'll be calling the USCG for help.

Ok this can wait for another time guess i wont be doing it Thursday. And Matt, what do you mean about no water movement? Will this effect just fishing inside the harbor too? I guess ill be wanting to fish the whole place around once i see all the open space, it wont stop with just one pass through. We got to schedule one of these though that really would be a great halibut trip.

Would you guys really be down to do this if weather permits?

StinkyMatt · 04-25-2013, 08:43 PM

Yeah, this may be a fun one way trip. The winds would usually push you in the right direction. It's just a matter of arranging car shuttles.

Get it organized.

We can unload the kayaks at cabrilo and have someone stay there then go park the cars at the drop off point and have one or two cars go back to cabrillo and start the trek down. How about we do this in May?

Theres parking by belmont pier but they open at 8. Any insight on parking landwhale and Ed?
