Ive seen a few around LBC a few years back. One accidently ran into my sabiki and when i got it up we were all surprised. Also seen one a month ago in Los Alamitos Bay while kayaking.

All the ones ive seen look to be 150-200lbs.

They are actually really common. Seen a few in the Carlsbad area and Dana point.

I remember reading a report that someone posted. It had a picture of a turtle in the water just staring at the camera. Looked like it was right next to their kayak.
