Landing a Hobie Pedal Kayak

[Harry Hill]

the biggest reason I haven't fished La Jolla yet is my knees. I had them both replaced in the last year and they don't work good yet. So even when I land in Mission Bay or Newport I have a hard time getting my feet under me. It's getting better but if I had to jump out in surf I would get pounded and knocked down. I'll be glad then they are working again. I hate missing out on this great fishing.

Take your time and get strong. The fish will be there when you regain your strength. I have an ab issue and it gets aggravated on every trip. Nothing like what you are dealing with though. I am sure your body will let you know when it is time to hit the surf.

I tend to kamikaze it in, that is I peddle as fast as I can, lock the drive in the up position as it gets shallow, coast in and jump out closer to the sand, if necessary, sometimes you can just glide on in.
