Did you get out earlier than your last excursion at least?
Great to hear available BWE members lent you a hand...Kudos to them.
Always enjoy hearing about the following so I have to ask...any misadventures on the launch or landing?

Yes even with the dead battery incident I was still on the water by like 8 which is still late but way earlier then 930 haha.

I actually for the 2nd trip in a row had a smooth take off and landing although I have biffed it many times in the past in the Newport/Huntington area. The surf has been nice and low in La Jolla for me to launch which is awesome.

When I troll a deep-diving crankbait with light/medium tackle, I get all kinds of funny looks 'cause the rod is bent and the tip vibrates like I have something on the other end.

"Bro if you help me gaff it ill give you half the meat"!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
That was the best thing I heard all day, if your polite and respectful to people on the water(or in any situation) 9 times out of 10 it will be recipricated, there are a lot of salty dudes that work really hard to time and locate bites and they just dont want to see all of the ground work and recon missions to dial in get blown up in online reports that get posted while the bite is still flaring, that being said the bat ray fishing is wide open go have at em.....
Bat rays are also wide open at shelter island pier, j street marina, and the channel just opposite the port of san diego, all of which are shorter paddles than LJ, and people dont have to worry about those big vicious sharks.
Nice to meet you too dude

Hahahaha that was the first thing that popped in my head was to offer half of the gaffed fished and I totally would have held up my end of the offer lol...

I was in panic mode considering I was used to only Spottys pulling my line from the kayak.

Cheers and nice meeting you out there man!
