New to Kayaking - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Ok let me preface this. I have been an avid fisherman as long as I can remember. I have been surf fishing for years. I have done kayak fishing from lakes, and I know this ocean kayak fishing is much different.

My friend is selling me at Hobie Revolution with all the gear fish finder, rod holders, bait. PFD, turbo paddles too much to list .. complete setup for $1200.00. From what i have read this sound like a good deal so I cannot pass up this offer. I know I am going to love kayak fishing I have been wanting to get one, I know what people say rent one before you buy one ....

My question is (if your still reading), I live in Orange and would to how to get started. I have been watching videos, read a lot on these forums. I think of starting inside Newport or HB harbor. Any thoughts or documentation you guys can give a newbie?

Thanks !
John
