Agua Hedionda Lagoon - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

People kayak and paddle board under the bridge to the middle lagoon all the time. I know what you read is the law but I've never seen it enforced. I'm not saying that it won't, will or, can't.
If your going to kayak fish in the lagoon :
1. Your supposed to have a permit. (Read posts above)
2. Stay in the passive area and out of the boating area. The areas are clearly marked by buoys.
3. Do not tie your kayak to a buoy while fishing.
4. Enforcement in winter is very rare. Enforcement in summer on weekends is a given.
5. If you happen to be out there and have the police boat come up to you you better have your fishing license or your screwed. Other than that they will MOST LIKELY tell you your breaking the rules and not write you a ticket.

I have (and so have a lot of other people) fished there for years and never had a problem.
