You are going to take a friend out that has not tried kayaking to County Line? I am guessing it will be there last time on a kayak, and hope that it is only by choice. There are more reasons not to do that than I even want to list.

Well I took my brother out for his first time on a yak on Sunday out of county line. we got to the launch around 3:30 am and we were looking at 3'-5' sets with about a 10-15 second window between sets. But thats how county line is. So after getting him pumped up I told my bro when I say go jump in and i will give u a push and paddle like theres no tomorrow and no matter what just keep your nose straight into the waves. So I say "GO" he jumps in and right over. He jumps up out of the water and yells you said keep your nose in the straight into the wave being the clown he is. After resting all the gear on his yak and getting my breath from laughing my ass off. He went for it again and made it out to my surprise after taking 2 solid 3' waves right in the face. I got lucky making it out taking a couple in the face as well and only losing my 3rd brand new bait tank net. After reuniting with my bro he's telling me man that was nuts, thank god coming in is easier than that right, at that point all I could do was laugh and shake my head. I have a gopro video Im working on of the beach landing .
As far as bait goes There were squid boats from trancis to county line, All were anchored but none were working.There lights were on but nothing going on. We paddled up to 2 boats and worked the area around there lights for nothing, a lot of sardines no mackrel, and didnt read any squishes any were. I brought fresh dead with me from the previous week. And headed out to the deep hole for a few rock fish a short ling never found any solid marks we were there for. Ended up coming back in and working the kelp looking for

never found any marks. Ended the day between the 2 of us with 4 calico 6 rockfish 50 sanddabs 2 - 4' spiny dogfish sharks and soar shoulders we covered about 15 miles of water. Water temp was 67-69 and not much current.
