I'll probably be at the launch by 5 so I can get the Yak down, and geared up to launch at 6. I like to get as much fishing time possible.

I will be there, for the 6 am tee time, I will be staying right across the street at Bay Club...we should have quite a few guys by then, I think there is about 6 or 7 that have expressed interest already...should be a good time

Might shorten your paddle a bit to launch from the foot of Lawrence Street. Just keep heading down Rosecrans past the SI turnoff and make a left on Lawrence before you hit the sub base gate. Probably shave at least a few hundred yards off the trip.

I think illegal beach is a better launch point if heading towards the jetty. Parking sucks unless you can land the Port of San Diego's curb at the entrance located at Lawrence Street / San Antonio Avenue. Everywhere else in at least a 5 block radius has free parking but limited to 2 hours.

You just have to remeber you are in a heavily patrolled naval area and the gun ship will chase you out of any unauthorized areas which are clearly marked, the traffic does get pretty heavy out there so be aware of your surroundings
but it does hold some good ones

I'm not sure of the others but I'm not planning to paddle to the jetty. I may paddle to the bait barge for some live bait and then work some of my Halibut holes from there back towards S.I. area. Starting at about 10 A.M. the current should be going out and paddling against that coming back will for sure be a workout.
