La Jolla-Is anything West of the Buoy line fair game? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Hellboy1500 · 05-04-2012, 05:29 PM

If you go to the california fish and game web page it has the areas in red and blue as to where and what you can fish. it is set up by gps cords. I don't have gps and i just go off the point of lj and then there is a street nautilas or something like that that is the start of the other red and blue areas. if you just familurize youself with the surrounding area via google map you can kind of determine where you are at on the water. Also if you got a decent phone and put it in a ziplock or have a water proof case you can check it to make sure you are where you need to be or not be.

There is one smaller buoy out there (who knows where the rest of them went), and when I paddled by it my gps still showed me within the MPA area. I'm pretty sure you have to paddle about 100 yards west of that buoy to be clear of the MPA.

2 weeks ago I received a written warning from dfg for fishing within an mlpa and I was nowhere near the bouy. According to the official that write me up it's 100yards out. Why they haven't moved the bouys is a mystery to me.

If you launch early enough you can fish wherever you want.

They do not plan to move any of the current buoys, nor will they install new ones that show the new boundaries. We are all expected to know exactly where they all are and carry GPS to make sure that we are not in them. This situation brought to you by your friendly econazi extremists.

Did you get the ticket on the water or back at the launch?

Because the entire process, motives, budget and ethics were bankrupt from the start... they have no money left to pay to enforce the stupid things let alone MOVE THEM. So I'd imagine the bass ackwards way OF financing the madness is to ticket people and impose fines due to such a deficiency. I dunno. Just sayin'.
