Newby Questions About La Jolla - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Use what you got. Peddle, Paddle. For me (52 years old) it's paddle as my knees have no more meniscus in them so peddling is out of the question no matter how strong my legs are. But I have built up the stamina to paddle for up to 9 hours on the water. What helped me the most in the paddling was a good seat and lower lumbar support doubled my ability on the water.

I hate the wind though for sure. I can't wait for calmer waters too. The ocean has been so angry so far this year.
