They are unlikely to take the yak as long as there is no paddle or cart with it.

They can take loose gear sitting on top of the yak.

I fish a lot of places... some less "civilized" then La Jolla.

When I drop the yak I keep my electronics (in a drybag) , rods and paddle with me then walk in with that gear after I've parked and locked up the truck. Maybe it makes no difference but it gives me peace of mind, since I know no-one can lift my rods while I'm parking.

It was parked on the street. I was doing a late night run so I parked around midnight. I've always parked on the street. Any sense the lot might be safer? The only hassle is getting the lock repaired - it looks like they used a dent puller on it so it is toast and they bent the door metal. And no fish, to boot...

That blows. I don't think you can park in the lot if you are pulling an all-nighter. I believe its closed from something like midnight to 4AM. Not a cool reward for looking for some

Damn.. sorry to hear that Pete...
if u can sit in a plastic sled for hours on end searching the Pacific darkness for ghosts,....
you sure can easily hide in the bushes next weekend across the street from your truck with one of those captive bolt pistols, like in no country for old men, and find the culprits..then you'll have lobster bait for your next two outings..
