Anyone for La Jolla Friday 8/8
This would be my third time out in the ocean kayaking but my first time going for tuna. I would love if someone(s) to go fishing with. I'm not fimilar with the LJ area (where to fish, where to launch from, etc. I kinda suck at the whole surf launch thing...WOW I'm making this sound awesome. Anyways, I love to fish and down for paddling the distance. I normally pick up and bring live bait so no messing around with all that. You may tell me that buying live bait is lame bc there maybe tons of bait out there that's easy to get. I'm not looking for a babysitter but someone to tag along with to show me the ropes. I'm not annoying to be around so you won't want to drown me by the end of the day.
Hope my posting isn't a huge buzz kill but I thought I'd give it a shot.

Do you mean Yellowtail instead of Tuna?
Surf launch is easy. I might fish tomorrow. If I do, you're more than welcome to tag along. Mike

I am actually (free) guiding a longtime friend and his buddy on their first La Jolla trip. I have only guided (free) one other time last summer, and he ended up with double YT's. Actually I have been getting skunked lately and hope to break the spell tomorrow. See you out there as I know you love it ...... Last edited by ctfphoto; 08-07-2014 at 05:43 PM. |

Sounds good, i have a 90 minute drive from Brea (north oc), so I'll shoot for leaving at 0430, which should get me there around 0600

Well, I didn't catch anything today but hey...you can't catch every time. I'll be back out there again once I'm weeee bit more prepared. Of course Mike hooked up on a yellowtail (which he thought was small but bigger than ANY fish I've even thought of catching).
You guys rock with all your tips and showing me around. Ummmm seriously so much knowledge! I really appreciate it and even though I didn't catch, I still had a great time. Next time I'll catch a big mama. It was great meeting the guys that were out there today. Absolutely love all the positive mojo and can't wait to get back out there (perhaps on a bigger kayak).

It was good meeting you.
If you read all you can here on BWE and spend time on the water you'll be hooking them in no time!

Welcome!

Welcome to the forum and welcome to the addiction! Like all addictions you have good days and bad days. Seems like in the 2.5 years I've had my yak, its been a series of ups and downs getting it rigged correctly. All I can say, is do it right the first time. I have tried to take the cheap route and it has always back fired. I think I have it now thanks to the guys at Fastlane! See you out there. Send me a PM and lets fish sometime! fellow lady angler, Janine

Thanks for the advice! I'm really stoked to see another gal that likes to fish. All my girlfriends won't go fishing with me and the ones that do - don't really "want" to fish. I'll definitely take you up on that offer to go out there. Mike gave me some advice on things that I need to get so I'm going to get those things done before going back out there. I have my kayak which is totally not for fishing but has done me well in the harbor and the lagoons. Fishing a couple miles out is a totally different beast. I'm stoked for my new addiction.
Cheers! Kate

Good luck out there and welcome. Looks like you just increased the amount of lady kayak anglers out there by a 3rd
