La Jolla report 5-27
We're staying at the La Jolla beach hotel in an ocean view room. Launched at a little after 6 and remembered how to time the sets. Got out dry. Went out to 80' depth and caught a couple of olive rock fish and released them. Paddled around for a while and released a few more rock fish. Went or towards some powerboats and decide to toss a mint and white tady 45 around. After a dozen casts the water is full of flying baitfish. I threw the jig past them and as it came near them I was onto my first yellow. It stayed near the surface and I saw other fish around it. It was log barricuda trying to take the jig from the yellow. Then it happened...... A barricuda cut the line at the jig. It was fun while it lasted. I tied on a white and dorado colored jig and caught and released two log sized cudas. We're here tomorrow as well. I'll keep trying........... |

I wheeled the kayak to their underground parking garage and locked it up in a secure Place.

Wow Pat, sounds like great fun. What are the
rates at the La Jolla Beach Hotel? That's the one right at the launch right? |

Rate
Our room was 279$ a night. Bear in mind the holiday and the ocean view. We got 279$ and that was with 30% off. The garden rooms go for as low as 140$. Reserve well ahead of time and you may get a discount. We aren't going out of town this year so this is our splurge stay action.

Monday
My wife and I sat on the beach and I got more sun exposure than I was comfortable in repeating. My lips were quite burned even with lots of sunblock.
I'm pretty fair skinned and try to limit repeat prolonged exposure. I will be out there again soon though. |
