I hit the patties out of terra mar about 1-2 times a week depending on how good the surf is. I've been catching a lot of bonito & legal calico as of lately(safely released everything). I fish out of your basic ocean kayak but it does the job nicely for what I need. I was talking to some divers and they were telling me they've been seeing some 8-10lb yellows around the patties as well.

I also fish agua hedionda lagoon quite often as well. Depending on the tides, the spottie fishing is great fun.

Well, just let me know if you wanna meet up and fish.

Let me know when your heading out and I'll see what I have going on (free most days/mornings) Where do you launch from?

When fishing the patties, I launch from the stairs just south of the tower. My kayak is pretty light when unloaded, so I just take two trips down the stairs. Its a quick 5 min paddle to the patties from there with an excellent channel through the surf.

Launching at the lagoon, I like the apartments on the YMCA section... the fishing is real fun in that area and the paddle is less than a minute till from launch to first cast.
