Thanks in advance,

La Jolla Shores beach launch is the place. Paddle/peddle west at least until you clear land on your left (LJ Cove). most start bait fising there and continue west then S/West to fish the outside of the kelp line (tho there's not much at the surface). YT are usually 80-130 depth or more anywhere from the NW corner on down & out. Check the state preserves and GPS the area if you can.

Good Luck!
