LB Wall bangin'. - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

FishRaiden · 04-11-2012, 08:52 AM

Heres a week late report due to lack of internet.

But I did a solo trip to the LB Wall last week. Weather conditions were looking nice so I decided to head out on my own.

Launched out of Alamitos Bay around 7am.

Paddled out to the outside part of the wall and the swells were pretty big, but that didnt stop me cause that meant ACTIVE FISH! One my 2nd cast I hooked up on this 13" Cabezon.

Then shortly after I hook up on this 14" Sand Bass.

I had hooked up on another fish which snapped off my biggest hook that I used for the Texas Rig, so I had to use a smaller hook causing me to miss about 6-8 other bites :'(

By around 10am the swells went down and the current stopped flowing, making the fishys go back home to sleep.

Rig: Texas Rig with the new MC Swimbait Jerk Baits!

Its a must. The paddle out is estimated to be 1.5-2 miles.

If anybody is let me know, I want to give it a shot but not sure where to park and all that and where the nearest launch spot is. Hows the bass bite there lately?

If you go early enough theres plenty of free parking on Ocean Ave, we park right before the jetty larking meters.

We surf launch to the right of the jetty.

And the bass bite is insane if the current is flowing!

Good luck out there and be safe!

You don't want to fish after the rain in LB.
