May be a stupid question about La Jolla fishing boundaries - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

On Wed I launched a little after sun up. As I got past the breakers, about 20 yards from shore I noticed a pretty large mass of bait fish being bombed by birds and chased by dolphin.

My question is, how close to shore is it legal to fish? Would it have been legal for me to drop my sabiki right there to load up the bait tank? I even contemplated throwing the waxwing in the mix but didn't want to break any laws. It was too early for anyone but us fishing folks out that early.
