I also like the looks of launching at the river mouth near the power plant, I think city beach, $10, paddle straight out to the reefs.

Now can you give exact coordinates for all the fish.

If you keep an eye on the surf you will find some small days especially in spring and early summer. I would wait for a small day and lauch at the river. During the summer the surf near the Newport Pier is usually flat because it does not pick up the south swell. The lifeguards will put up a black ball flag for no surfing so you may not be able to land there if it is black balled.
