Long Beach Area - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Did you ever wind up going out? If so anything to report?

I went out on Alamitos Bay today. Made my usually super casual late rise and launched at noon. Got a spot pretty easily on the end of the peninsula, short wheel to the shoreline, and not nearly as crowded as the further inland shores. The wind was blowing though (that's what you get when you launch at noon!) and I forgot my anchor, so I was limited in how much fishing I could actually pull off. Bites were coming easily, but they were all short on my 4" Big Hammer. The fish seem pretty active though and the water feels plenty warm.

I did NOT go out, unfortunately. It turns out that my kayak is "stuck" in my yard until the roofers are done and move their giant trash bin out of my driveway haha. I WILL go out soon and will make a report - good or bad.

Thanks for asking.
