New to the area and the forum

[Kayak_Bernie]

Hi everybody! I just thought I would take a quick second and introduce myself!

I am new to San Diego, I just moved here mid July from Portland,OR. I lived in OR for only about 8 months, before that I lived in the Midwest. I got started kayak fishing in IL, WI, and MI with plenty of trips to the saltwater in NC, SC, and FL.

I am anxious to learn about the fishing here and I have been reading as many post as possible on the forum and absorbing as much knowledge as I can.

I've been out to Mission Bay a few time and have caught a few spotted bay bass and a little barracuda. I went out to LaJolla one day and caught a lizardfish and a bunch of big greenback mackerel that were all 12"-14"


I'd love to meet up with some folks here in SD to fish with out on the water, or just grab a beer and talk fishing. Not asking for your secret fishing spots, just a point in the right direction. The kayak fishing community in the Northwest was amazing and I learned so much from those guys and I hope to find the same down here in San Diego!

Thanks and I hope to meet a bunch of you in the near future. In the very near future I will be heading back out to LaJolla Saturday 9/7 to try again. So look for a yellow OK Prowler Big Game with a big guy on it and more than likely that'll be me.

Cheers, Bernie
