My first intro attempt below. Thank you to Shane and Nick Fish for the first day advice on Rockaway Beach.

Introductions: I’m just getting into kayak fishing (have fly fished quite a bit), and I have gone out twice solo and had a blast.  I’m trying to find a way to meet up with other people fishing in or near the Bay, Tomales, Bodega, Baker Beach, Pacifica, etc...  I would love to learn from more experienced kayak anglers re: techniques and gear (currently my gear is on the budget/homemade end of the spectrum but I’m planning on steady upgrades). I do have a Garmin 4cv fishfinder and a decent marine radio. I just put my first spool of braided line into my bait caster. In my very short kayak career I’ve caught shakers, guitarfish, a leopard and a sand shark, but I really really want to catch a king salmon before they head upstream.
