Monday La Jolla report. STRONG current - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

After seeing and hearing of the weekend bite, we headed out Monday. It took some time to get bait, and after starting smooth, it got pretty choppy.

The bite shut down big time on Monday, with no YT caught by anyone we saw. Saw a couple boils, but no biters.

Message to those going out soon is to watch the current. We ended up going south way too easily, and when time to head in, it was WORK to paddle / peddle back north. That is a strong south current happening right now.

Note #2: I was talking at work with a couple guys and topic turned to how we each had rescued someone from a kayak off La Jolla. Some folks don't know how to get back on a kayak if flipped, so really good to know that before heading out.

My two cents.... yellowtail fever is great, but knowing limits is smart as well.
