Whatever the date is, inevitably some kayak angler gets into trouble and has to be rescued on the RCG opener. Last year there were several. In 2010, a kayak angler lost his life. http://blog.sfgate.com/stew/2010/05/04/big-sur-coast-searched-for-missing-kayaker/ Etienne and I had driven down to sur that day the kayaker was lost and decided not to launch. We had a nice breakfast and drove home. I love the salt as much as anyone but the ocean is unforgiving. At the core of all of the unfortunate incidents is poor judgement and sometimes lack of skills/equipment. So before you launch your kayak into marginal WX and shark infested waters ask yourself whether that big ling cod or halibut is really worth your life.
