Christmas day rockfishing 12/25 and 12/31

Hi all,

I recently acquired my very first kayak from a member here (2 months ago), and still waiting to go out for my first time catching rockfish on reels! The weather has been mad and I am still looking for my opportunity to go out. In between busy holidays schedule, the next chance I am hoping to go out will be on 12/25 and/or 12/31 before the rockfish season ends!   

So far my fishing experience have been on party boats and rent skiff from Capitola. I am also an ab diver for a few years.

Is there anyone out there whom doesn't mind to take a newbie out? I live in San Francisco and can transport myself (carpool would be nice too), willing to meet in Monterey to Sonoma to cure my fishing itch!!

Sincerely,
Mason

  GS10! Yeeehaaah!  Is your vacation request in? Keep checking posts till you find the right time and place to launch.  See you otw.

I will be at anchor bay, but the forecast calls for a hot toddy watching 15 footers breaking on the beach, you are welcome to join

Thank Rockman & Rockfish. I will be patience. Oh no! Not a 15 footer for my first time! Lol

Actually the weather on Sunday 27th is awesome, I am tempted to go ...

Yeah, I saw last night that it's supposed to be 5 foot up by pt arena Sunday

Wind looks bad for Christmas Day for the ocean. I may hit the mouth of the Petaluma river for stripers in the morning if you want to get out and fish a bit.

I was also considering Sunday but forecast might change.... please post if you plan on going

Sunday seems more doable, I will keep you posted and yeah, you should consider attending the GS10 its fun and exciting. You will meet all the "weird" Characters NCKA has to offer. 

Extended forecast looks good for Sunday. Keeping my fingers crossed it holds. Hoping to get my Dad out on the tandem for the first time. Probably hit SWS. Good luck!!

Good to hear FF
Me and my friend will go, assume weather is still good, where and when shall we meet?

Not necessarily starting a hookup. This post just made me look at the upcoming wx and Sunday looks good.

Hey three money,you launch from under 37?. Park across the road from the launch? It seems there is a fee to park under the bridge,but I got a Veterans pass no charge. What time and I am a total new bee trying to get myself set up. Got a little gear,yak,fish finder,and rod holder on the boat. What else I need? Maybe PM is best from here.

Good luck, y'all!  Tight lines...
