I think this is a map of launches out there.

I would refresh your cold water kayak gear. Water is COLD up there.

Yes, I'm totally spoiled by warm water kayaking. Years ago I used to launch around Malibu wearing a farmer John style wet suit but it was pretty uncomfortable and doesn't fit anymore. I was thinking about buying a thin wet suit bottom.....? Definitely unsure about what to wear for cold water.

Great map, thanks. I've seen Central Coast's web site before but I believe they focus on the Moro Bay / Pismo Beach area. I'll be up in Carmel and Monterey.

You can fish the Rockfish Slamdown with us in Cambria this September - its a blast!

That sounds like a tough move for kayak fishing, but Carmel/Monterey are a beautiful change of scenery. Aside from rockfish, they sometimes get White Sea Bass, Halibut, Salmon, and Striped Bass up there. A shot at Sturgeon if you make a drive to SF Bay.

This website may be a good start for your fishing transition:

Monterey Marty has a nice ring to it...

Good luck on the move.

Thanks. Yes, I’ll miss kayaking in Cabo. It was a financial decision.
