Coming to San Diego, hope to fish - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

emrliquidlife · 11-16-2009, 03:42 PM

Anyone want to go fishing anytime on the 2nd or a.m. on the 3rd of Dec.?

I have never fished La Jolla, so that sounds like an exciting one.

I'll bring my Kayak down. Honestly, don't know how the hotel is going to feel about it though. Or I guess I could get a rental from someplace.

In case you guys don't know me, I'm the guy from the kayak safety videos shown at the MLPA mtgs.

Thanks,

Ed

Ed, thanks for your participation in the MLPA process, you went above and beyond presenting safety videos on our behalf. I hope one of the La Jolla kayak regulars steps up who is fishing Saturday, and meets up with you. I will be on a skiff, otherwise I'd meet up with you, but I'll be monitoring CH. 72, give me a shout if you head out.

Thanks for the PM Tom,

So, what type of Irons? Tady? I was looking at the various models and it was a bit dizzying. Type 45?

Any color recommendations. I'm going to be new to the Tady family, so stocking up is going to be costly. Any go to colors you guys recommend?

I'm staying at a hotel. If I actually get a fish, I'm going to look funny going into the lobby in Gore-Tex with a YT bleeding in a bag.

I'll take fish cleaning pics from the bathtub.

Hike Bike & Kayak in La Jolla has Prowler 15's with rod holders. If you want to rent contact them at their Mission Bay store (858) 488-5599 and tell them you want a fishing kayak delivered to the La Jolla store.

For Irons about now, most guys are using heavier YOYO jigs.

I am sure many will post up what they like. But an old stand by is the blue and white SALAS 6Xjr.

The Tady 45 is a surface Iron.

Drop down, grind up, repeat.

this is a good one to read.... its not just the color of the iron, but how you use it
