very nice going out there. the first launch is always the hardest. PLUS it was a surf launch which means it's even more difficult. getting a flip out of the way is a great thing to do. i got mine out of the way on my first try too, and i havent flipped since then.

thanks.. It sure humbles you. Did make it past first wave, just needed to paddle harder to get past 2nd.

besides LJ, this area seems pretty good.. Glad I'm local.. Anyone else want to go out in future let me know..

I believe the sea bass bite is at the west end of Santa Cruz island. I was just out on a boat on Sunday and we metered tons of fish and they expected them to bite within a couple days.

Can't wait to pick up my kayak (STILL!!!...ANDY Says it's in the back collecting dust) just have to take enough medication to last through Saturday or spend the night (Motel 6 or something) then fish the FEDERAL BREAKWATER ON SUNDAY! Since Santa Monica & Malibu Sportfishing closed I've totally forgotten about the "Deep Hole"

, memories of the days when even the 3/4 boats from San Pedro would make the run if it had been good for a couple days.
