La Jolla 3/28

[spyakker]

Hit up La Jolla yesterday with Nickc5. Both of our first times out there. On the drive there I realized I forgot my fish finder batter at home, total bummer! Got there around 6:00 and launch around 6:45. First time surf launching was kind of nerve recking, but made it out. Nick almost went overboard! Went out to make bait, which was really easy to make. Didn't really know which direction to go so we trolled around live macks for a good while. Lots of bass and barracuda action in the kelp and landed a nice rock fish on the salas 6x jr. Nick found a sweet rock structure and landed some nice rock fish there. Wind started to pick up a bit, so we decided to head back in before we get out buts kicked. We then realized that we were 4 miles out fighting the wind and being sea sick did not help at all. Seemed like forever to come back with but hooked up a nice calico trolling and nick had some more rock fish action. No yellowtail for us but a fun trip. Landing was easy and it couple other yakers came up on some YT.
