Jeff,

When and where do you plan to launch? I'll guess MBK if you are going to rent a yak. Let me know your plans and I'll see if I can get away for the day.

I am going to say around 10am, we were planning on launching from the beach by the kayak shop, unless you know of a better place to launch that would be closer to a fishing area? I am taking a newbie fishergirl with me, so I hope to make it a little easier for her if I can.

Jeff, you can also launch from San Carlos Beach (next to the Coastguard jetty). Costs $8 to park for the day (same as the lots near MBK) but a shorter portage and a shorter paddle to the kelp beds off Cannery Row. It's also more scenic IMO. There is usually decent fishing off The Row. Also check the shale reefs near the red mile bouy if you go out that way. Just beware of the reserve outside the aquarium (marked w/small bouys) and the new Lovers Pt SMR. Don't want any of my bros to get busted. http://www.dfg.ca.gov/mlpa/ccmpas_list.asp#lovers
HWY 1 to Del Monte Ave and go past MBK+Fisherman's Wharf, then through the tunnel and make your first right onto Foam, then a right at the first stoplight. Can't miss it--a big open park next to the jetty.
Good luck!!!

I think this would be a better launch for us. Does MBK allow you to take the kayak to another location or do you have to launch from the beach behind their shop?

Thanks Jeff

There's a kayak rental place right at the Coast Guard pier. Good luck out there, I'm fishing with a buddy on Monday, not sure where yet, possibly Big Sur, if we fish that area (Monterey) I'll keep an eye out for you

Thanks for the info.

The wife and I will be launching from the Jetty tomorrow.  I'll be monitoring VHF 69.  I have a lime green FND and my wife has a yellow Malibu Two.  Hope to see you out there.

It's gonna be so flat Jeff. Don't worry about launching/landing at MBK--it'll be cake.
