I would suggest stopping in at OEX on your first trip and talk with the fellows to get up to speed with the area and the specific needs of a pacific ocean kayaker.
San Diego county has nearly fifty miles of beaches. Many are great surfing spots therefore not so hot for the kayaker. On your first trips you might try Mission Bay, or San Diego Bay to meet and talk with other kayak fishermen in the area. The line depends on what/where you fish. There are some really good tournaments here, like the recent HOW tournament. It's a great place to come and meet the most active local fishermen, get area tips, and just have fun. Just come on over and meet the guys, that's the best way.

Thresher I can guarantee. Mahi and tuna are w/in 10 miles of shore about once every 5 or so years unless you count bonito. Happy paddling.

^Lol
Coming from TX hes gonna have a rude awakening re water temps. We get 3-4 months of water above 70F and maybe one month around 75. Well see what happens this September. Inshore "blue" water is rare. May I introduce you to the bass to keep busy?

HAHAHA. Yeah, I dont want to blow the forum up with question after question. I usually do a lot of research before I ask and head out. The only reason I say mahi and Tuna is because I see lots of pictures with them. I thought it would be more common to see them because blue water would be in more. Guess I was wrong. I paddled 6 miles a couple of times but usually stay in the the 2-4 range now.
