The time line on the Science Dayly article on the link, is right on. I noticed if was disappearing in 2016. It used to be so thick out at La Jolla that even in a paddle kayak it was nearly impossible to cut accross the shallows when coming back from the south. As far as a hobie with mirrage drive, it was absolutely impossible. Used to have to go out much further west, just to get around the point, because the kelp went out much further in that area. Now the only kelp is only on the outskirts. If you go inside it's like a burned out forest. There is nothing there. Those who think it coming back are fooling themselves, or haven't fished La Jolla very long. And as far as the bull kelp you don't see almost any, even when the loster boats are there daily during the lobster season and cutting it all up when they drag their traps up. I beleive from fishing almost weekly there that the kelp is easily 75% less then used to be normal, before 2016. If the water continues to stay or get warmer, the fishing will get even worse.
