at la Jolla. Your a sitting duck, view from land.
If a fresh water fishing with 3 poles violation was $1,150.00

Thank you guys very much. Last couple times I just went out to where some other guys were, and figured if I get a ticket, so will they. I'll feel better about it, this next time around.

FishAlerts is a dead app now unfortunately - found that out on Saturday when I wanted to see the boundary off the tip of point loma.

This is the edge of the MPA - line up the flag pole with the edge of the building.

Is anyone else noticing the smell of lawyers somewhere around here? It's kind of like the plug of the drain has been pulled, and fumes from the sewer are drifting up.

Nah, ... it's probably just me. I feel the need to go take a shower.

I liked FishAlerts for regulations lookup as well (though I've found it to be incomplete e.g. local Sculpin closure wasn't quite right).

I haven't been able to find anything good for quick reg lookup (since going through the DFW PDF is tricky, and even getting to the actual link to the file takes some web surfiing). If anyone finds a good alternative, please let me know.

If we were talking about firearms rather than kayak fishing, Legal Heat is an app that fills that purpose nicely. "50 State guide to Firearm Law" by National Training Solutions, Inc.

I apologize for going off topic a little with this, but some of you might like the information.

Right on!

Between the photo and a little help from google earth I was able to locate the Flag, palm tree, etc. Now, to talk the wife into letting me go tomorrow.
