+1 I am usually off the water by 11am.

Unless the santa ana's are blowing you can pretty much count on wind out of the N - NW every day. Heading down to CDM is awesome, if there is wind its at your back... really enjoy fishing there but can be a bitch to paddle back to harbor if you get too far south and it picks up.

Well, I'm just leaving home now @ 10AM and won't be on the water until around Noon I bet. Looking like I probably won't be fishing too far from the launch and will probably have to anchor up. Oh well, better than a day of work I guess!

Thanks for the advice. I'll have to try another day when I don't have as many obligations.

Or get a sail! lol I learned that the hard way after doing 10 miles yesterday. Even though I jam in a revo I was still a little beat afterwards.

I could probably pile all my kids onto a Tandem Island.
