Now let's look at the validity of this...

In guessing her age, my mom's a young 70 years, and old Reserve Laguna Lady (henceforth ORLL) looks a bit older than my mom, so let's add 1 dog year to estimate her age.

Now, assuming that ORLL is approximately 77 years old, is not as hot as Raquel Welch (it's ok ORLL, you're still hot), and didn't look loaded like a Hilton, we can thus assume that realistically her husband is at least her age if not older, since most men like younger women and when younger men do go after older women, they are usually smokin' hot and/or loaded.

So let's add 1 dog year to estimate his age.

So we are to believe that ORLL's husband, Mr. ORLL, is approximately 84 years old, which would make him the oldest kayak fisherman, and ORLL has no problem with her approximately 84 year old husband paddling 3 miles out to go kayak fishing...

I can only come to these conclusions to actually believe her;

1. Mr. ORLL is a stud and I'd like to paddle with him, maybe even get
Cucamonga Keith to do a documentary about him.
2. My age assumptions may be a tad off.
3. She's after his Life Insurance policy.
4. Mr. ORLL is really Clark Kent.
5. There's a new Super Geritol on the market.

ORLL, please bring your husband to the next MLPA meeting, we kayakers would love to meet him...

Did anyone else notice that during the 30 second time limits Ken let the "conservationists" run way over the limit but cut the fishermen off nearly every time?

The "old" guy that was arguing for central Laguna access is halibutmike on Spearboard, a phenomenal waterman and still very active. He had tears in his eyes pleading for access that he can negotiate at his age. 2000 steps won't help him or kayakfishermen--we need beach-level access and safe launches/swim-out spots.

This is something we spearos are very concerned about in Laguna as well since without good shore access, many of us will be locked out.

Thanks all again for your effort.

Commenting further on what Zenspearo's said, the way maps 1 and 3 are currently drawn for Laguna, they take approximately 7 miles of a 13.5 mile stretch between Newport and Dana. This is effectively more than 50% because the best visbility, public stair access, shore fishing and lobster areas are within that 7 mile closure. The larger of those two maps goes even further and extends to what appeared to be city limits at Three Arch Bay. This larger map leaves no stair access in Laguna and the lesser of the two evil map provides two remaining staircases, one of which is 1000 steps. Furthermore, both of these maps cover our two safe harbor kayak access points, resulting in a decent trek to get outside of the closure, particularly the larger closure which I think was #3. And more one thing, as you probably noticed, there was large push to include all of Laguna by including south Laguna as well. This is partially because many of the pro-closure people reside in South Laguna and West Street and Thousand Steps are straight down from their homes. Needless to say, it is puzzling how either of Maps 1 and 3 represent cross-interest support in Laguna by taking away almost all access to a public resource.
