La Jolla 8/1 - Conditions - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I didn't even make bait today. I was fishing up north and reading a solid 59-60 water temp the whole time. Pretty chilly.

I second the rough launch conditions. Waves were heavier than expected, and there were some standout sets that were significantly larger than buoy data. I ended up jumping out into chest deep water to prevent capsizing on the way in. Surf had some energy to be breaking at the boat launch in water that was overhead depth.
