La Jolla Launch

[james92026]

I thought I would drive over to LJ today and observe returning yak fishermen but only saw the recreational crowd. I guess I was either too early, or too late (10:30). I wanted to maybe pick up a few pointers, ask a few questions as to where the legal fishing grounds are e.t.c. The ones I saw, made it look fairly easy and only witnessed one tandem flip at the last second. It looked to me like the technique was to be patient, getting a feel for the right set, incoming surf rythym e.t.c. Most just glided right up on the beach. Next question would be what to do with kayak cart if you unload on the beach and have to park a couple blocks away? Mine will come apart and stow in the forward A Hatch, but it also adds a bit of bow weight. Guess I could simply leave the kayak beached while I put the cart in the trunk and go find parking seeing how as I am usually alone.
