San Onofre powerplant area? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Hypoxic1 · 08-07-2009, 12:42 PM

Hi, I was wondering if any of you had fished the kelp offshore the SAn Onofre powerplant. I ran into a guy at the MLPA meeting who was a powerboater and he told me it was a productive area. He referred to it as "something point" a name I cant recall.

I drove into the state beach park there this morning and the entry looked very user friendly.

Any constructive comments would be welcome.
Thanks

San Mateo point is just N of the domes and Trestles. The point at San O state beach is Old Man's.

State Beach is just N of the Domes and the kayak launch is just adjacent to them at the end of the beachfront road. In most swells there is a channel parallel to the beach to launch into then paddle a bit S to hit the channel perpendicular to the beach, to get out. It's not foolproof, but it's consistent.

All that San Clemente kelp from the pier to the Barn, S of Las Pulgas is growing real well the last couple seasons. Go get 'em.

There are many, many reasons why you don't hang a fish over the edge of your boat and he now knows my personal #1 reason why you stow them in the hatch!!!
