There are state park bbq's there I believe & usually someone from the group has one going too.

Will there be a grill avail for BBQ?

Yup, there is a big charcoal grill. And I expect there will be a few smaller propane grills available too.
If anybody is unsure what to bring...bring charcoal. W'll get the potluck thread going soon!

Of course, Andy will have at least 1 fry disc going & maybe, just maybe we will have a repeat of Shicken bbq pizza ?????

Pat, can we start a separate thread for Donations for the raffle ? Lets  make this BIG. Bigger the donations the more money we can raise for a Great cause. Love to see a long list so everyone is fired up for the raffle !!!   

Thanks for all that support and participate !!
 
I'm in !!!

People will be coming from different areas and ready to fish as well so plan on sunrise!

Cant wait! Hope to get some OTW time, but if not it will be good to get out n see everyone!

Please let me know what time we should be there to meet you guys & what kind of rigs we need.

Thanks,

There will be some people launching at dawn. I'll probably keep it simple and just sling fish traps and drop shrimp flies tipped with squid. I'm there more for the company than the fishing but a few fish in cooler would be nice

I expect there will be 50+ kayaks launching from the beach between 6am and 8am. The people who are fishing will likely head towards 3 different areas: kelp beds off Cannery Row or the red mile buoy or north towards the beach hotel. Just show up and start getting rigged, while introducing yourself to other kayakers who are also getting ready to launch. Most of the people at this event will gladly show you where to go or what to use. This may potentially sound foreign or intimidating--but it's pretty common in this group.   A large group will congregate by the red mile buoy around 10-11am and sort of raft-together (sharing drinks & snacks etc) before returning to the beach for the potluck & raffle.
As far as fishing tackle, I would suggest the standard rockfishing setup: shrimpfly rig or a swimbait w/teaser above or iron jig with teaser above (3-6ozs) or just use a whole squid/sardine/mackerel.
