Please see photo. The red is where I park(you should get there before sun up as parking goes quick) the black line is the path I wheel my kayak to launch spot. The blue circle. The stairs are burned out so a longer walk.
The waves in this area are pretty easy to deal with.
Last time there at high tide the sand was there as for a low tide there will be some rocks to deal with. But launching in the blue circle area does have more sand.
Side note during then summer months the area in blue is set up for kayakers. At one point there was or is a map showing where you can be. Surfers here windsurfers there and so on.
Looks like the wind on Sunday isn’t going to be favorable.
I am heading there on Saturday as wind should be better.

Yea, Saturday is a better day over all for kayaking down here it looks like, but I've got some nonsense to take care pretty much right in the middle of the day so Sunday it is.

Thanks for the info man, if it gets too choppy out there I'll head in an call it a day.

p.s. im looking forward to the report from Saturday. What are you targetting out there?

I plan on going next Wednesday very early. It will be my first time there.
What are most people using for bait?
Do you fish the inside, middle or outside of the kelp?
Is there any structure/rock piles in the area?

Thanks, David

Depends on what you are looking for there's are some reefs n piles you just got to find them FF helps a lot my go to baits are plastics if fishing for bass squid for the rock fish or jigs good luck be safe
