Don't stress about practicing for LJ. Just go give it a whirl on a day with little swell and you'll see its no big deal.

I've fished those kelp beds. Not worth the hassle of dealing with the del mar crowd to launch there. Park at the coast guard station and launch there. Its free and on the way out to the kelp you can buy bait at the barge. I used to get bait for $5 all day ("free refills") but I'm sure that's changed. Bounce bait anywhere around there and you can find some flatties.
