Days Summary:
Went kayak fishing today at Dana Point primarily to explore the 'pipe'. I was hoping to find it on the fish finder and explore it a little but plans changed. When we got near the location a fairly strong off shore wind had kicked up. Not wanting to be caught a mile out in a full blown Santa Ana I decided to head in near the Doheny shoreline and fish for some Halibut. Only got one 'swipe' by a Hali that day but we did pick up a couple of Calico. That was a good thing cuz Hudson was with me on his first kayak fishing trip so I was glad he was able to catch something. Never was able to locate the 'pipe' on my fish finder. I am looking forward to heading out again later to explore that aspect of Dana Point again later.

Happy to take you out there (the pipe) and show you around next time you go out on the weekend!

I dont think I will be getting out again for a month or two but ABSOLUTELY! I got to a spot that seemed to be on top of it based on my Navionics map, but I did not see anything on the FF that made me think it was there. The wind picked up off shore just as we got there, so did not have much time to explore further. Looking forward to checking that out again later!

is it good fishing there and in the harbor i got a kayak and wanting to try ocean fishing instead of lakes

[@thekayaklaunch]

For harbor fishing I would recommend NewPort harbor. It has the best fishing other than San Diego Bay in my opinion. For ocean fishing Dana Point is pretty good. Just use shrimp in the kelp around the red buoy
