La Jolla Report - March 19 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Forecast said 15 sec period but actual period was more like 5 sec. Launch was not too bad if you time it right. Bait was very abundant and everywhere but not many biters. Landed few rock fish in kelp but nothing exciting or worth taking picture of.

One incident happened that made me even more proud of being part of the kayak fishing community at LJ: a kayak woman was screaming for help so I started pedaling towards her and then realized that she was pointing at a capsized kayaker in the distance, few minutes later I arrived there and so did every kayaker in the area. We helped flip the kayak and get the gentleman back on his kayak. Luckily he was wearing a life vest and did not loose anything because all his gear was leashed.

Glad everything went and still impressed with everyone's help.
